OK guys. I am making a mod called Republic Armor but in K1 Kotor Tool I can't find the mdx. and mdl. files. So I went to the K2 in Kotor Tool found what I wanted. But this mod is for K1. So is this porting? Or since they share the same model it isn't. So please help. Please tell me.

I'm afraid it is porting. Anything that comes from K2 to K1 is porting. Even textures (tga images)

If you know for certain that the files are available in K1 and you just can't find them then strictly speaking it's not porting no.

If the asset is in both games it's not porting.

If it's only in one, it is.

Dude, just keep it to yourself. No one will know about it if you don't release it to the public or talk about it. There's nothing anyone can do.

Unless LucasArts has hidden cameras set up in the computer rooms of everyone who buys their products.

You can port whatever you want if you have both games. But if you release your mod then it is illegal.

I believe DDD has a valid point, Lordjedi perhaps you should ask a moderator and see if it is porting.

Porting, even if you don't release it, is illegal.

Oh, for Pete's sake. I was just making a point that no one can know what you do in the privacy of your own computer room. Lighten up.

Thank you! Exactly the point I was trying to make.

If I hear anything about my post from any staff members, I will refer them to this post by RakataDark.

Some people seriously need to loosen up and listen to what someone is really saying.

Encouraging porting (which happens to be illegal(OMGZ, I know)), is against the rules.
