[QUOTE="majoras_wrath"]Wouldn't you basically just be making HL2 in the end? If you port over all the graphics, maps, sounds, to the source engine you aren't making anything original. That would be illegal, yes.IvanElk
Yeah that is just copyright infringement. Mods themselves are not illegal until they utilize material that is deemed not free ware.

Are you going by whats really illegal or what you think should be illegal? Theres a mod in the making called Black Mesa and its a remake of Half Life 1 using the Source engine. Valve hasnt done anything about it other than telling them not to use the name Half Life Source since HLS already exists.

So if thats possible, I dont think remaking a game on the same engine would be illegal.

Yeah different games have different characters and models and maps. I guess it wouldnt work since the player would need those games to see those materials.

You would need a Source game to run the mod. Actually, Ive seen games that require specific Source games to see the textures. So maybe you need HL2 to see the HL2 models and textures. Someone correct me if Im wrong.

Is it legal for a modder to remake HL2 using the Source engine and distribute it for free? Its shouldnt be too hard since all the models, maps, sounds are all there.
