Model Ristrictions from uploaders
6 years ago
Not that I have used models that were not otherwise seemingly free to use - what rights do some porters have on telling what people can and cannot do with their models - especially arbitrary rules. I found one model where even the porter explicitly said not to use this model for fetish material which includes removing the characters shoes ( which they indicated... are removable...)
My first problem is. If they ported the model - what rules on parody and copyright infringement does this person have on models that effectively already belong to someone else and not that porter? How can a porter violate copyright by extracting game models for use outside a game and also claim they now own the rights to said models in that they restrict what others can do with them? Are they not already engaging in that behavior themselves?
Debate.

It was for a model of a character from a game i played recently - struggling to remember which one since I moved on haha
