Gotta Hate Mod Theives
-
Well, someone warned me of another rip off of my mod. This time it’s a server called Stargate Infinity http://www.stargate-infini.com/forum/portal.php they basically tore out the readme and put in that it was created by them. People really need to get a life.
-
is there no possibility to create a server and client version where the client version would not be compatible with the vanilla server and the server version itself would be that different from vanilla, that it would be nearly impossible to recreate it being an advanced modder?
im sorry, too, on what happened. but look on it from the other side: noone would ever steal a mod thats not worth it

Won’t get any support around here. Nightstalker, if you see any of them around here, PM me and I’ll suspend their accounts. They’ve nothing to do here.
-
Have you approached them about it Nightie?
-
I would but I don’t speak or write in French. I joined their site so I am going to send a PM in English and see if Babelfish gives a good translation.
-
I can translate whatever you want to send, just send me a PM.
-
I would but they have deleted my account and now the admins need to approve new registrants. Guess they don’t want to “talk”.
-
No. Crazy has already said that the GLS will never be used to filter servers. While yes, it could be practical to ban offending servers from it, I fully agree with his decision to keep the GLS a neutral body.
-
I have e-mailed him (his e-mail was in the Welcome message when I first joined. Let’s see if I even warrant a message back). Also, according to their site it looks like you have to donate to get the password to the server, I don’t know how legal that is.
-
I got what I want.
"Hello, we apologize for this error we are just a small community which looks has has fun nothing else the glory or the other one not we interese not at all, we are of everything deleted(eliminated) and to leave(restart) on our version of front who was better for us all and will cause no more problem has this subject!

Do you mean “thieves”?
Nightstalker, I must say, in the Freelancer Game/Mod Community, you are the largest target for thieves now.
Many modders gone to a stupid wrong way, they made big and big mod, hurdreds ships, hurdreds systems etc, but without the ships/systems is nothing.
More serious problem is that, they cannot make so many ship by themselves, so they use those stolen ships.Nightstalker, you need happy if other use your ship model in theirs mods……

Normally if your work is used and your name is given as the creator, yes it is flattering even if you did not give your permission.
But here I disagree Nexose, it is disappointing, infuriating and hurtful when you see your work with someone else claiming it is his work.
Here the response (reading with extreme flexibility!) is implying they will remove Nightie’s parts from their mod - but has it been done?

Sorry to hear this man, it’s good you managed to get it resolved. Indeed, this seems to be going on a lot.
Also, on a side note,

Microsoft honored their 5 year support of the game to the letter as far as I know.
