I can deny this for many reasons.
Knowing basic java; how would you add custom NPC's to an alignment that the other ones have, please reply for a counter reply.
Is the LOTRMOD Not a Parody of the Tolkien Estates itself? Why should he be so concerned?!
According to a wikia staff member he cannot legally stop you as well.
http://lotrminecraftmod.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:334869
Also the meaning of this thread is to support Public Submods as with the 'approved' Eras of Arda? Is Mevans playing favourites?
Recently a few Wikia staff and such have been saying Submod's without permission are illegal, is this true? Please state your thoughts and/or Opinions on this!
Mevans himself is yet to give a Formal Reply.
I feel as if Submods, coded additons or otherwise, help make the community more diverce, perhaps they could even have their own section on the Wikia as to avoid confusion with the Main Mod.
He did make a coremod that editied how gates function ;).
But it is much easier to install a 'mini map' mod ;D I can show you how if you need help.
You have to Deobf the lotr mod and Decompile it, sorry for the Necro Post.
I planned on making another thread detailing it, this is just for the permission(s) discussion itself, isolated.
So, I am coding a Standalone Submod that adds multiple coded in factions and was wondering if this is Legal, I am pretty sure it is according to Minecraft's Eula, and I am not actually modifying any of the LOTRMOD's code itself, but I would like some Clarification before proceeding.
I have also read multiple threads on here Implicitly allowing it, I can link them if needed, yes, this does refer to coded Submod(s), Not Just 'Texture Hoax's'.
Thanks, Fenrir.

Applied to the Mordor Orc Archer Entity class would be a lot easier then editing the Elf Class.
Religions: Before christianity the Germanics believed in Germanic Paganism which was a branch of Norse Mythology so to speak. Both also then adopted christianity as their main religion.
Weapons: Both Scandinavians and Germans were considered adept with the use of a Battle Axe. However Germanics were mostly masters of the Spear.
Differences: Scandinavians are considered great ship builders while Germans are not.
I would say a no to Lossoth and Dunland being somewhat Northern european Dunland is more like in concept Celts of Gaul/Scotland they lived in their own land until it was taken from them by Rohan or real life counterpart Romans. However in technology they are more like Indians who have stolen Colonizers weapons.
Lossoth in Geography are more like a Russian tribe that has not yet gained Iron or Bronze. In everything else they are more similar to Inuits.
However I must add the similarities are more on the Time frame. If you want Medieval Germany (Holy Roman Empire) Dale is the Closest. If you want Iron Age (Germanics) Beornings/Wood-men would be the best bet.
@Fenrir, the Germanics were groups of Scandinavians who decided to go south. So you are right they are all very related.
And the Goths were groups of Germanics who broke off, I am aware.
Also, Dale seems like a good choice.
Size: Both peoples are considered quite large.

IK, Germans, Norse, Visigothic etc are all related irl.
Dale, Lossoth, Rohan, Dunland, Khand???, Beorings, Anduinic Men, Woodland Men.
Yea, they were not Bred in a Frozen Wateland or Anything of the Such.

You don't obtain source files for the mod. The only distributed mod files are the ones contained in the compiled, finished product.. Of course, you could spend a few weeks manually reconstructing the mod by decompiling it and then correcting method and variable names. Except for the most part, you're better off doing something which he has given approval for: Recreating individual features inspired by the mod. Those can be tinkered with as you see fit.
The Current First Age has Custom Waypoint's, Biome's, and Soon, Factions.
