Well, that's disappointing. What's the point of a release if people can't use them? Is that what you intended. or did you misstate something?
Yeah, Loot, I had to read it a couple of times before it clicked. I can definitely understand with why itchboy decided to do it
.....I'll admit I worded it quite badly. I suck at making these. I edited the post and added clarifications.
So basically:
- I am referring to this LA Mod vehicle pack. All of my other stuff are for free to use
- Released mods can no longer take these units. They have to make their own LA themed units.
- Private unreleased mods are allowed to take everything as long as its personal.
- Mods that already make use of my content will have to remove my stuff from their mods
- Sorry if it is confusing. Hope I didn't bother too many people.
My reasons for doing this are because I never intended this pack to be used as a base for modding. I spent shitloads of effort in research, Zmod, lighting and asking questions. LA Mod 3.0 has nothing to do with it at all. I created this topic as a way to showcase proper usage of my models and conversions.
I never ever expected to see my work being used in other ways besides that. I feel that having other mods just take from it directly undermines my months and years of practice, trial and error. My decision is rooted in the fact that most mods in this site right now are products of direct copy pasting of content with minimal changes. Most US themed mods coming out now all look the same to me. For example:
- Based from LA Mod
- Makes use of LA Freeplay map
- Borrows models from the Montana mod, LA Mod and my own stuff
- Makes use of LA mod scripts and nothing else
