What gives you the reason to say that? Of course not.
If they don’t give you permission then it counts as copyright infringement. I’m frustrated on how you thought this was allowed.

I think as long as you built it by yourself there wouldn’t be a problem
Stealing ideas is not copyright infringement, so DMCA could not be used here
Only if you have the rights from the creator to do that. Cmon you should know this.
That’s not what he’s asking. He’s asking if it’s ok to recreate maps people have made in the past with his own assets, which is completely fine (legally at least). Give him the benefit of the doubt… I don’t see any harm in modernising classic Roblox maps.
If you read the entire post again, the OP mentions recreating maps from different games. While modernizing Roblox maps may be ok, not everyone in the game dev business will be.
It is legal, but it isn’t really. Many maps (Every FNaF map has been copied into roblox (Not too many details)) also CSGO and no one got in truble.
Its not okay to plagiarize. I don’t think this is even a question.
Ooooh, did someone say “hot topic?”
Rolve has a history of doing the same thing—recreating maps and assets, that is—in games that are clones of Valve’s (I mean, seriously: Rolve as a name is literally the Ro-version of Valve?). To my knowledge, they have also imported entire assets from Valve titles into their own games; there was a medium article on this very subject a while back. Stealing assets directly by importing them is likely against the rules, but seeing how Roblox has actually included Rolve games in events points towards recreation of maps being okay by Roblox’s standards.
That being said, a DMCA takedown request from whichever company made the game you’re borrowing from would basically guarantee your game being taken down.
Based on this, do what you want but be wary of the consequences. It’s no one’s fault if it gets taken down.
Inspiration yes, copying no…
