Of course, I'm talking about making a Digital Millennium Copyright Act claim for intellectual property infringement. Some flagrant examples noticed by Reddit users include in-game mods there were hosted exclusively on modding emporium Nexus Mods being added to as original creations, with uploaders even copying and pasting the PC-centric installation instructions into the mod description.įor its part, the development team at Bethesda has pulled a number of the pilfered mods from its download portal, and even issued instructions for how content creators can combat this.
Maybe the team at Bethesda should've seen this coming: Now that mods are available for Fallout 4 on Xbox One, the more unscrupulous among us are apparently stealing creations that originated on the game's PC version and uploading them for Microsoft's latest console.
