Permission please

[Jetrell]

I was in the middle of building a Dark Mod FM but ran into some gameplay problems so I decided to rebuild it using a game that I'm quite familiar with, Rune. For those not familiar with Rune it's an older Viking melee game using the Unreal engine. Link: http://www.runegame.com/

 

At any rate, remaking the FM using Rune helped me figure out my gameplay issues. Since the Rune map I made is completed and came out nicely I would like to release the map to the Rune community because their community has dwindled and it would be well received.

 

The problem is that I used some music (ogg files) that came with The Dark Mod. So I would like to get permission to use those files. If I receive permission I would obviously give full credit to The Dark Mod for the music files and any other necessary credits that are due.

 

And for what it is worth, at this point the Rune community is quite small so in all actuality only a small amount of people will probably download my map and those who do will likely be intrigued and download The Dark Mod.

 

Thank you for considering my request.

After rereading my post above I realize it was a bit convoluted.

 

Allow me try again, I'm asking for permission to use a few songs from The Dark Mod for my Rune map. Please!

 

Thanks.

Now that's out the way, make sure to link to your mod once it's released. I've got a copy of Rune lying around somewhere and would be interested in trying it out.

 

Edit: Oh, and since you're done with your Rune mod now, maybe you should consider joining the Dark side.

Thank you Tels.

 

I thought it was probably okay but I wanted to make sure. I'll give credit (and praise) to The Dark Mod and the map will be released for free download.

 

Thanks again.

Looks like you're making good progress Jetrell

Conversely we would love to have a look at any of your assets that aren't from rune...
