map/mod clan
 

hi are we allowed to start mapping clans for dof because im thinking of doing one with puppeteer when dof is released but are we allowed to make the clans because it could be copyrighted?

For my best knowledge its allowed. correct me if im wrong.

Why shouldn't it be allowed? I don't understand your concerns about copyrights.
We'll release the editor so that custom maps can be created. Thus founding mapping clans is desirable :)

I've only heard of modders getting into copyright issues a couple times, and it's usually when they're doing something like making a starcraft mod for command and conquer (that really happened and Blizzard issued a C&D). Unless you're making a blatant ripoff of another existing game in your mod, you shouldn't run into problems. As for mappers, never heard of them running into legal trouble, don't worry about it.

thanks :) ok ill start one up when dof comes out it will basically be the new istari productions hopefully but with a better game XD

Im sure making maps will be great for this game:rolleyes:

Hey SvN. Nice to have you.

great to have everyone here :)

yup, we are all like a big family arent we?:rolleyes:

well, if there will be a mapping clan, you can count on me:)
