NoM file permissions : III

» Tue Jan 22, 2013 6:29 pm

I know that the NoM files are open for use if you "NoMify" your mod, but what about the individual files for other uses?
I just need one mesh/texture for my mod. But the ReadMe makes it sound like I need to ask permission to use them.

It looks like Taddeus hasn't been around in a long time, so I can't really ask him.

Anyone know if Taddeus was OK with using the files? It probably wouldn't be a big deal, but I rather make sure.

...
I just need the apple mesh/texture. But have never found a decent alternative besides the NoM files.

I believe that should be fine Pluto; this is an old PM from Taddeus when I asked if I could use his oven mesh:

Of course you can use it. You can use everything you find in the "NoM modders res.esp" file. Only thing, don't change the IDs you find in that file: this way your mod will be automatically compatible with NoM.
Bye

I believe that the apple mesh in NoM is a free resource that came from LadyE.
Give http://www.gamefront.com/files/4477152 a try. I think it has a bunch of her model resources and the apple should be in there. If that's not the one you want, I can probably find others.

Perfect.
I remember him being very gracious when I had questions in the past, I just didn't want to use something that he had decided was not a resource.

And full credit will be mentioned in my ReadMe, of course.

Thanks john.
I'll check those also.

Just to let you know, I saw _Taddeus_ in the online users list not too terribly long ago, if you wanted to cover all your bases.

True, Taddeus was just on two days ago

- send him a PM if you're interested in more than Lady E's apple.

i was just given permission to release my own custom version of Mainframe's Backpacks, which will include a dynamic bedroll depending on whether or not you have a bedroll from NoM in your inventory (as well as quite a few other changes). I will try to make the script as independent from NoM as possible, using it only as a required master; but I will make sure to ask for permission if I need to actually change something.

The ReadMe says that all files can be used without permission for any mods using NoM.
AND, from personal experience, over many years of being here, Taddeus always seems to allow the files to be used for any reason that might be outside of the normal NoM reasons.
Any time I use NoM files for non-NoM reasons I always ask... even though I know Taddeus is going to be fine with it. Just to be polite.

Anyways, the original OP question was resolved long ago. And I contacted Taddeus.
