You know, i always wondered why people didn't just port custom models from other games into this game. Most mods are made from scratch and as long as permission is given from the author, its perfectly legal. All of the credible mod sights make sure that all mods that are uploaded are not ripped from games and are custom made by the authors of course, because of copyright. As a popular mod sight, they don't want to get sued either. Most people don't mind their mods being used in other games or being retextured/changed as long as they are credited for the work somewhere in the mod desription. There are some very skilled mod makers out there besides the ones on this forum. I did play a lot of pc games like skyrim, oblivion, witcher, fallout, and there are countless mods for all those games that are of high quality. I just always thought maybe the process for creating mods and putting them into FF7 was too difficult because the game is so old so no one really bothered to create/port custom mods into the game. But if it is possible and not difficult to do, it's about damn time someone decided to do it.
O yeah one more thing. There are some models that are ripped from the witcher game on the nexus but its fine because CD Projekt RED is cool and said that it was perfectly fine. They wanted more publicity for their games and a good way was to allow for its content to be put in other games. Why not right? That's about the only company that recently gave permission for game content to be ripped that i know of. Anyways good luck. My pc is broken and im currently too busy to put any time and money into fixing it. (on a laptop atm) Hope this importing experiment is successful and goes well. Would love to see some pics too if it is successful.
