Sorry to break it to ya... but you're in the wrong thread. This is the Beta Releases.

Ask an admin to move it to Mod Requests/ideas thread.

I'm pretty sure there's a little thing called "copyright" that says you can't do this. Assuming anything ever happens, which I don't see occurring.

Firstly, the biggest challenge facing the HaloUT folks was proving that the IP was not "ripped" but was actually recreated by the modders. Secondly, the Star Wars mod had its name changed and some in-game changes made so that Lucasarts wouldn't sue the mod team. And as for you using Midway-owned IP, you will save yourself some serious headaches by checking with Midway on the Mortal Kombat characters, etc.

For the UC2004 mod I work on, our dev team requested permission from Epic to make a PC version of UC2. Maybe we didn't really have to ask, but we did so as a courtesy. We did also ask for use of Midway owned IP from UC2, but that request was shot down by, you guessed it, Midway.

Good luck.

IIRC the HaloUT folks did rip/port the models over to UT2K4 once Halo came out for the PC, but according to them they got permission from MS.

Thats a **** load of characters to model, my lord....
I could imagine modeling those taking months if you were to boost them up to UT3 quality.

remeber some charaters a pallete swaps but with diff moves, example: Cyrax, Sektor, and Smoke look alike, but diffrent colors and moves, but who said id make them look alike?

**Lorin-Slasher** · 08-21-2007, 06:35 PM

Yes... I have MK: Armageddon and Sektor and Cyrax look alike. Not to mention Scorpion and Sub-Zero.

MK Mod

Well apparently some people out there already made MK Gold models and maps. Not very impressive looking but close enough. Here's the link: http://64.233.169.104/search?q=cache...ient=firefox-a

Somehow I don't see MS allowing use of their IP like that, so I am inclined to say no, they didn't ask....

somethign that someone made ages ago

@ Nemephosis: I agree that I don't believe that MS would actually allow them to use their IP like that, and if MS actually knew what Project Torlan was doing they would probably have sent out a C&D already. However, like I said, according to the PT folks they got no response from MS saying they couldn't and they interpreted the EULA as allowing them to do this (see post 10 & 12 http://utforums.epicgames.com/showth...ghlight=HaloUT)

BTW, sorry for the OT
