I have a comic I am looking to create that if allowed, will use the models, textures, etc. from Reach and Halo 4. Mainly I am looking to use small props to help flesh out my scenes in the comic as well as help make my main ship more realistic for her crew. And, if allowed, I’ll also be using the ships for their intended usage as well.
Okay, so I have read the rules, but the only thing I have a question on is this. “You can’t reverse engineer our games to access the assets or otherwise do things that the games don’t normally permit in order to create your Items.” Does that mean that I am not allowed to take the models from the games themselves for use in 3rd party modeling programs, even if I put the disclaimer up? I realize this is a fairly obvious answer, but I am confirming a definate Yay or Nay before I proceed.
I guess what I am looking for here is a confirmation that I can or cannot use the models in my own programs, even if I do not intend on distributing them other than as renders. The second thing is if permission is needed, I’d love to get that so I can go ahead.
