Legal to re-create BIS models?

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I have a question regarding BIS ODOL objects. I'm importing an island from OFP to ArmA 2 and on my island I already use some train tracks but they don’t look as nice as the ones in ArmA 2.

I sent a PM to one of the BIS people who didn’t bother to reply to me so I don’t know what to do.

BIS says it’s illegal to reverse engineer their models, but BIS never said anything about recreating their models, which means creating a model that looks almost exactly the same by myself using BIS textures.

I don't think it’s such a big deal to recreate like 5 train track models. So does recreating the model breach the EULA? if it’s not written in the EULA now, then BIS can't add it now anyway because when I accepted it, it wasn’t there.

The kind of things we have to go through just because of 1 option which would align the train tracks with the ground :mad_o: BIS should support the community by releasing at least some MLOD models, it’s the community who keeps their games alive anyway, without us ArmA 2 wouldn’t be half of a success like it is today...

If you create the models from scratch then it is absolutely legal as it is your own work.
