User Avataris it okay to upload screenshots from a game which has been modified ?

for example, if the game contains new graphics and such.

User AvatarYou mean a hacked game, for instance? If so, no, it isn't allowed.

User AvatarIf it's an official update, not released separately as a stand-alone game: yes. If it's fan made or modded: no.

User AvatarDepends on whether it's an official modification or not.
User Avatarwhat about taking screenshots with the source port ZDoom for the Doom games then ? the only thing that does is increasing the resolution.
User AvatarIt's not allowed. The game must be presented exactly "as is", with no modifications. Official patches are allowed, though.

That's a demonstration of the game's built-in editor, so I think it counts.
User AvatarEven though the source is available, are the WADs released for free yet?
User AvatarI would like for us to be able to say "yes", with the caveat that non-out-of-the-box shots be clearly labeled as not representative of the published product. As it is I've sent in correction requests for shots of fanpatched games with English subtitles to be turfed in favor of the authentic (but unintelligible to most of us here) Japanese ones.
