Console mod requests #2

Thats New Holland construction

If bobcat is in the game (mod) the there is not reason for there not to be a cat or new holand construction. Simple as that. I actually own 2 bobcats as a contractor myself and they are mostly used for well everything. But still.

Its alot harder than u think it is

Well if it comes down to it i do modding for a lot of games including my own so.

You are overlooking the licensing issue at play. Just because Item A is in the game, doesn't mean the door is wide open for anything similar to A (in terms of functionality, manufacturer, appearance, what-not). IP licenses do not work like that!

Listen and listen good. I have been doing game development for over 14 years now i know how it works.I have gone through licensing before i know what the limitations are. I went to college for 4 year to do what I do.

Well that's all well and good. Maybe you should not assume everyone else reading here has the same alleged background you do? Many people here do not understand the nuances of IP licensing, which has created a significant amount of confusion and frustration over the past few years.

Interestingly enough though, I do find your claim suspect, given your earlier statement:

Forgive me if I read that and suspected that maybe you did not understand IP licensing, as your statement implies a single, simple precedent is all that is required to use another company's IP at will, without limitation.

Such an understanding of IP licensing will almost certainly leads to dangerous assumptions, erroneous interpretations, and ultimately, frustration.

P.S. Random blurbs of "Listen and Listen good" followed by "I've been doing X, Y, Z for 999 years", reek of desperation and an inability to rationally respond to a question/claim, as it is an attempt to bully another into submission by claiming intellectual/experiential superiority, without basis.

and for the bobcat, the maker(ARM-Team) of it received permission from bobcat to put it on consoles.

I hope we see a trailer that allows us to tie down equipment (on consoles) before the end of the year.

Won't happen. There aren't the the scripts already available to make such a mod for consoles.

Your reply is noted. But may i also remind you as long as your not selling mods no license is needed. Im sure you know that don't you? Not to mention PC is a great example.

Don't report posts you don't agree with and licencing is an issue on consoles as giants are the only ones that can upload a mod for console.

Really? Thats pretty dumb.. look at fallout, skyrim ect dont you agree?

[cmdrbyron]

Whether you agree or not is independent of whether or not modded content can be uploaded for consoles, which was the point I was endeavouring to address.

As Giants are the only ones able to upload mods, they are bound by licensing agreements, whether they are charging for a mod or not, because the modded content is employed within their IP, for which they benefit financially.

The reason why licensing is not enforced to the same extent on PC is because individual users can create and upload content for other users to download and install, without any involvement of Giants.

That being said, many modders have begun "locking" their mods behind Patreon and other profit generation mechanisms, which is in violation of the EULA (because they are now profiting from it), and they could become subject to legal action for IP Infringement by the original IP owners (because such usage of the IP no longer falls under "free use" caveats).

Maybe, if giants could make it work in 19 somehow.

My apologies btw. I tend to Bragg about my success in life lol. No clue farmer simulator did things like that.
