Since the Powers that Pee are shutting down the forums, maybe we should upload some of the old BSN mods for Dragon Age so at least they can be preserved for future use rather than lost to the sands of time...er internet.

Excellent idea aedanstarfang. So where do you suggest we put the uploads, in this thread or a new thread devoted to uploads only? |

Well I was thinking we upload them via box.com and post the links here since all of the mods will be lost anyway and if the authors want their mods removed we can delete the links, etc. |

That would be nice. I only have the "skip the fade" enabled at the moment, but eventually I'd like to get some others.

Mass Effect mods should probably be saved and uploaded as well if anyone wants to undertake that task (I only have DAO for PC).

Wait, are you suggesting that you take someone else's mods from BSN and load them onto a private server for people? That is a bit shady and stealing is it not? We have a current list of where you can find the mods on the sticky. Mod theft is not cool.

There is already an effort underway to save what mods can be saved - by contacting all of the authors and asking.
Mods are very different from posts on a forum. They are intellectual property and are not treated the same way as posts are.
Do make a backup of the ones you use. Backups are a good habit to get into and you should definitely include your game mods when you do them.But please do not upload those (or any) mods anywhere without the author's permission - even if you cannot reach them to ask.If you would like to assist with the preservation effort, please message Tarshana and I'm sure she would be glad to get you started. She, and her small group of heroes, does need help because they are backing them up correctly and being respectful of the author, so it is taking more time.
Please be respectful of those who have freely created so much lasting enjoyment for our games. I realize everyone wants to save things that may be lost, but there is a right way to do it. That effort has begun, and you can join it.
Thank you!

I'm not an expert on the modding community, but I'm inclined to agree with Tarshana and serenai about people helping themselves to other peoples' work without proper discussion not being a good thing. I'm locking this thread until other moderators more knowledgeable on modding can take a view, and I'm moving the post with the mod list into the moderators' 'safe place' until the matter can be discussed. For now, please discuss this at the stickied post: bsn.boards.net/thread/614/legacy-projects-where-find-favouriteThank you. |
