I didn't know where to put this so I apologise if it needed to be in the Avernum forum.

The reason I ask Drakefyre is that I have heard he is a friend of to the people at Spidweb.

Well, the thing is, I want to know if it is acceptable for me to use the graphics supplied with Avernum/Geneforge and make them into a short animation in Paint Shop Pro or similar, as a trailer for my BoA scenario.

I accept that they may be your work, and if you say yes, I will be mentioning the sources of the graphics. Things I want to use are people, items and landscapes.

I apreciate that the graphics may not be yours, but if I could have your permission, I would be very grateful. And who knows, maybe you'll even put it on the site!

Thanks.

It would hardly be the first time it's been done. Plenty of BoE scenarios have included Avernum and/or Geneforge graphics. So go for it.

By the way, I don't believe that any scenario that has been heavily publicised before it's release has ever been completed. Just something for you to think about.

Alcritas had a .gif movie for Redemption, but I don't know if anyone has it any more after the Lyceum's crash.

Well, besides TM's scenarios and Falling Stars, but those are exceptions.

As long as you're keeping the spidweb graphics within a spidweb medium, it should be fine.

Just something for you to think about.I appreciate that, but I have sorted everything out for my scenario, and am just waiting for BoA to arrive on PC's - two months of waiting! And so I thought that this would be a cool idea.

Anyway thanks for the reply. I'll go ahead, and hold you responsible if anyone sues, ok? *sniggers* No, seriously, thanks.

Edit: gotta type quicker! (In response to Drakeys reply)
