Permission issue: M2TW stuff in RTW!

[AqD]

Hi all!

Can anyone tell me if it's perfectly okay to use M2TW things in RTW mods? I don't mean small elements but large and obvious things like the entire horses and weapons etc...

I've strictly avoided this in my past mods, although in Norman Invasion I have used a selection of French-accent voices and a selection of portraits from M2 for one faction.

I believe I heard somewhere - someone correct me if I am wrong - that it has only recently become (or is becoming) policy for SEGA games not to allow elements of new games into mods for older games...

I would not personally use huge chunks, but others may disagree.

Thanks! Do you know if it's made so before M2TW is released or after it? (I need the M2TW horses badly )

Hi,Aqd Its not to clear with back moding older games, I think Sega may not like it, But if the player has to buy the CD vanilla from a retailer to play it and Sega gets their cut, I cannot see where they have a problem. Okay in RTW case the buyer may be getting the benefit of MTW2 stuff without buying the retail CD for that game, So that may be a point of contention?

hmm allright. Thanks!
