-M-'s LE Recreations and Alterations / M's LOT Studio (MLS)

[bixel]

Hey guys, sorry I havent been around for a while my internets were down. Anyway, I am currently not using CAM at the moment, but I am still BATting away. Infact I havent played SC4 for a couple months now, I only boot it up to run a BAT test. Anyway since, CAM is currently not installed on my system feel free to upload the HKSAS for me on the LEX. I meant to do it earlier, but since I am not using CAM at the moment, I cant get it to appear since it is a reward and not a plop. Thanks in advance!

You know, it's usually common courtesy to ask permission to upload a BATters files ANYWHERE, before doing so. I'm talking of course about the modded "Babylon" LOT. I'm really not happy that no-one even asked to upload it here, or that they were modding it for the intent of being released (I have no problems with individuals modding it for their own tastes). The modding is great, as is the lot, don't get me wrong.

I'm just not happy that no-one asked me, the  person who BATted Babylon, whether they could release it, especially since the readme clearly stated: "Do not upload without my permission anywhere else".

Best Regards
Sixu

Sixu, just to clarify, what M released is merely a lot for your BAT, and none of your files have been uploaded in the process.  Your original BAT is linked as a dependency in M's upload description [link], without which the lot would contain a brown box.

no problem, like I said I have no objection to the modding (it's an improvement afterall!) I guess I just would have liked to have been told about it (after all it's the integral piece of the LOT).

Hope I haven't kicked up too much fuss about it.

(not asking for the whole thing to be scrapped or taken of the exchange).

don't get me wrong here 6underground but your BAT was listed properly, and credit was given where it was due, to u of course. since it was listed as a dependency, and the actual BAT did not change, i don't see the problem with it.

thats like saying i have a BAT, but i used a BSC dependency, that i would have to ask for permission to use the BSC dependency? not at all, as long as it's linked to the prop/texture as intended, and credit is given where it's due. i do however see your point, but i just don't think there was any real reason to post it here, rather than sending a PM.

All he's saying, dadyrghluv, is that it would've been nice to tell him that a version was in the works. After all, the original creator should have at least a little say. Now, nothing wrong happened here, he's just a little annoyed that no one told him that his BAT got a new lot and was released on the LEX (sans model, of course).

[dadyrghluv]

yea thats true SA, i can't disagree with that. i was just merely explaining it.

feel free to upload the HKSAS for me on the LEX.

M4346 will be back from his holidays December 18th, so I think we should wait till then and let him upload it in that case!

[M4346]

Well I guess you can say that I am back and will steadily try and get back into the swing of things. Thank you for your concern and support during my absence, I trust and hope that things will return to normal and the way they were as soon as possible.

As for the allegations and issue raised by 6Undeground, I would just like to state that I did nothing wrong, except follow community convention by creating my own, new lot and descriptor for the original model created by the aforementioned. Furthermore, I did not include or distribute the original model in any way and accordingly I did nothing wrong, infringed no copyright and broke no de facto law.

We do not need to ask for permission when we use propmakers' props, and accordingly the norm in the community has always been to use sc4model files, if and only if, the original is linked as a dependency.

That is all I have to say on the subject, any further issues and queries can be directed to me in PM or via e-mail at the relevant contact details.

Thank you.
