Mashups de jeux : un jeu dans un autre

Les mods qui ont fait connaître Universal Modder ne portent pas sur un seul jeu. Ce sont des mashups : le vrai Minecraft dessiné dans GTA V, le Warthog de Halo qui roule dans Minecraft, Bloons TD 6 joué en blocs.

Quatre façons de mettre un jeu dans un jeu

Questions fréquentes

Faut-il posséder les deux jeux pour un mashup ?

Oui. Les mashups lisent les assets et le code depuis vos propres installations des deux jeux, et le résultat ne peut contenir les fichiers d’aucun des deux. Partagez plutôt du code, des patchs ou des convertisseurs.

Combien de temps prend un mashup ?

Un portage de contenu (une arme ou une créature) peut aboutir en une session. Un mod passthrough comme Minecraft dans GTA V est un projet sur plusieurs sessions, avec beaucoup de vérifications.

Puis-je partager un mod mashup ?

Partagez votre code et un installateur du type « apportez vos propres fichiers de jeu ». Ne redistribuez jamais les assets de l’un ou l’autre jeu. Des éditeurs ont fait retirer des projets de fans même sans assets : restez non commercial et lisez les politiques des deux éditeurs.
