Usage of Old Mod Assets

I just had to ask this and also to clear up amongst other modders who are attempting to do this.

Can old mod assets from mods like robot storm 1.99, apocalypse 1.50, generals 2.5, future crisis etc. be used in another mods? Though the creators of it would be credited for their work. Or do we have to ask permission for the usage of those assets first?

You would have to ask the mod author's for permission first, that is the way unless they have expressly mentioned said mod version is free to use earlier which is typically not the case.

You may use my 1.99 tho, please be clear that credits list from it covers the assets held in so crediting just mod author is not sufficient unless original asset. Original assets won't be found on resource sites/ppm.

Just don't go use without permission stuff from mods in your public mods or you will be called a ripper/thief etc regardless whether you credited them or not.

Should you not be able to contact author, you are not still permitted to 'loot' the mod usually.
