+1 on no permission needed to create a mod to mod other mods

any mod can be made to change other mods without permission but you just need to be sure to point out its a mod to alter the other mod and not imply its in any way endorsed by the other modder simply because they failed to object to it.

if its your mod and you say that then its in no way infringing on anything, you are just using another mod as a base for your mod to function so its not like you claim any credit for the work of the other modder, all you are doing is adding your own tweaks to customize or make the mod better in your opinion. you don't have the right to make the base mods files part of your mod so you need to keep that as a separate mod because the base mod does belong to the original modder and he does have the right to deny you the right to include his mod files in your mod release, you only have the right to release the files that you yourself mod.

even if a modder says I don't give my ok for you to make a mod that changes my mod, as far as I am concerned he has no say so in if you do or don't make that mod as long as you make no claim the base mods work is yours and you give credit to the modder who created it even if you don't thank him for it.
