However such thing will require asking a original mod creator for using part of his mod or at least mentioning him in credits.
I am currently playing a new career to test the changes that i had made in various SH4 files to see if the results will be as i wanted to be.

I would ask Neal what procedures would pass the smell test on obtaining permissions. Chances are neither modder will make themselves available and after a reasonable length of time you would be considered to have permission. We have Ducimus on record as begging someone to take over his mod.
But asking Neal what guidelines would be acceptable is the right course. And, of course, giving the original modders credit and clearly representing yours as a fork, not the original work, which would still be available to download, would be important too.
We faced the same issues with Fall of the Rising Sun Ultimate, ultimately
chasing AOTDMad_Max to his German website where he wasn't particularly active but eventually noticed our posts. Eventually, he followed us here, checked out our work and endorsed FOTRSU.
