*BUMP*

I'm interested in what the admin's take on this is.. I'm really keen to have these placeables available for the rebuild of Zhentil Keep..

I presume Oblivion would have to hold a copyright on the design (style, shapes, textures) of those objects for any infringement case to be made. I don't know that they hold such copyrights as a matter of fact. Do you?

Furthermore, this is a closed community and the odds they'd even know or care that an NWN replica exists and is being used on our servers seems slim to none.

All in all, doesn't seem like something we'd need to be terribly concerned about. JMHO.

Pretty sure unless someone actually starts selling this, nobody will even bat an eyelash.

If they asked us to take it down, we would do so immediately. Until then, having it freely available on the Vault without slapping a cease and desist on it seems to indicate that they are unconcerned.
Enjoy the game
