Is it Illegal to Use Assets from Another Game for Research Purposes?

Reverse engineering is not illegal, but reverse engineering copyright protected data is. It is also illegal to rip content from a game. If you were paid to do , both you and your employer would be held responsible if the copyright holder decided to sue. Check the licencing agreements/eula’s of any game, it is explicitly stated doing so is illegal.

It would be best if could be discussed further in a separate thread however, since has been acknowledged by the OP and Epic staff. Feel free to open a new thread in the General Discussion forum if you need more info. Thanks :slight_smile:
