Want a FG module of Dragonlance DL1 Dragons of Despair?
How would you like a Fantasy Grounds module of the very first Dragonlance module: DL1 Dragons of Flame? I make FG conversions on the DMsGuild, but in order to sell them I can’t have any copyrighted material and it has to be in Faerûn. But recently, I talked with an expert and learned that I can give you a version I made that has everything and is in Krynn. How you may ask? You have to buy three PDFs from DMsGuild. They are:
1. My FG module
https://www.dmsguild.com/product/249105
2. The original module
https://www.dmsguild.com/product/168...t_epoch=0&it=1
3. Dragonlance 3.5 Campaign Book
https://www.dmsguild.com/product/285...t_epoch=0&it=1
If you send me a screenshot of your DMsGuild library showing you own these, I can legally send you a fully working (and amazingly beautiful) copy of DL1 Dragons of Flame with all sorts of added materials like an explanation of all the gods, a breakdown of all the languages I added to the module, new class, all the races were turned into DL versions, and much more!
How is this legal? Let’s say you buy those three PDFs. Then I go to your house and make the module for you. That’s legal and so is this since it’s the same thing in essence. I’m just skipping the part where I come to your house.
Just sharing the love. So if you’re interested, send me a private message!
you guys are confused on portection of copyrights vs patents vs trade marks
anyways i pretty clearly written out law on copyrights before 1992 even gave you the old law word for word which 1st edition falls under, i also explain how game system are protect via trade marks for terms in the game system and how game mechanics are protected not by a copyright but patent, and i explained word for word how copyrights are only there to protect profits on sales and what determines fair usage - argue with it all you want nice thing about truth is that it does not change the facts.
I even game you good examples of game of company that uses patents for there game mechanics and how they use trade marks to protect the copyright of word that define things in there game system and how they do not rely on copyrights and i gave you example of how on youtube fair usage allows people to use copyright mats in there videos for reviews. meaning there taking copyright mats and making it there own and making profit because by fair usage it does not compete against the game developer by them making profits of sale of exact same item which would be a video game.
also lawyer do not write we have people who do that for us all we do is make case in court and let peers and or judge determine result our cases are handed to us pre-written.
anyways aruge all you want does not change fact
which is what i said
if you wanted to make 5e dragonlance
ask marget wise if you can write a story for a campaign of your own choseing and use some of her materials
and if you make it around 1st edition you do not have to ask wizards of cost for permission
if you want to use 5th edition then u need to ask wizards of cost -> but grey area is if you are making a profit or not and fact that dragonlance rules are made for you to create create your own storys based around worlds that already exist and all modules are meant to be used like this. - so copyright be hard sell in court of law on its own.
sense intent of the core games any edition is for people to take content from those core games and use them in there own settings. as for images they would have to use trademark laws.
anyways i am done here cuz your incorrect and wrong on so many levels it not even funny its almost like talking to a wall so i am unsubscribing to this think what you want it wont change fact 1 copyright laws are not sure thing and two the intent of DND is for people to use there resources in there settings.
the part that is sticky is the books that authors write and pure storys of those campign settings which if you wrote you own you would be fine.
i would just email marget wise and ask her if you could write a dragonlance story for your setting if she says yes then you can.
I even told you how get in contact with her and her company that owns right to it.
one last thing art work has its own rules and laws when comes with copy rights, you seen art for sale like the picture of the bar dogs so you can take art work that is copyrighted you can make changes to it like the picture of the dogs at bar with hollween mask but it can not be same size and exactly same picture and has to be marked as so such.
artwork is protected by trademarks and patents and also original art work you can not reproduce to exact same measurements and design because and sell it or make print and sell it or take one of original prints and recopy and sell it - you have to put on the artwork that its reproduction of original and change its size. so that it does not effect value of the original artwork
