Hell, around here if someone takes someone else's models or sound, there's a s***storm and none of this is for being done for profit. I can't speak for how problematic this is for FPS games, but for MMOs in particular it's very heavily frowned upon.Ī little clarification: I'm not trying to get on my high horse here, but as I am a game designer myself (a rookie, but still a designer) I can definitely empathize with the authors of the original sound. UI modifications aren't usually a problem, but when people start taking models and sounds, the companies get really cranky. In fact, with several of the other games that I'm playing (I usually play MMOs) when someone takes content out of the game without the company's permission they can get burned pretty badly. I see it happen all the time, but that doesn't mean that it's not problematic. I've never been a huge fan of Counter Strike, but that's just my personal preference. People take models and all of the sorts out of other games which im sure the creators wouldnt agree with them, but as far as it goes they arnt being sold so no harm gets done, look at all the counter strike weapons etc, etc etc. Â If some of the sounds came from BF1942, permission may or may not be required (I believe it would be required). Â It sounds like a reasonable thing to be concerned about to me. Â It seems clear to me that he's concerned about copyright infringement in the case of taking the some of the sounds from other games. I'm sure that Plaintiff can answer for himself, but I didn't get any feeling that he was implying anything with his statement.
