  1. Topic is now closed for obvious reasons. I think the communities' stance on the treatment of content creators and their work has been made pretty clear. The download was removed because it used content from a mod whose owners have explicitly said they do not want their work redistributed, edited or not. It is good that you originally tried to get permission, absolutely. Believing that you can do whatever you like when you got no reply? Not so much. Bottom line is that this community and many great modders have been destroyed or driven away because of people constantly taking things that weren't theirs and claiming it as their own or re-releasing with no permission. As I said before, like it or not, this is stealing. You can spin it however you like, it doesn't change a thing. If you believe that the absence of an answer equals consent, you need to reevaluate a lot in life. There is nothing more to be said here, opinions have been made clear. If you wish to post on this forum, and this goes for everybody (warnings have been given out), you follow the terms of service that you agreed to upon registering. If you want to waltz around without any sense of morality, go elsewhere.

  2. Hey sorry for not being capable of developing a polished mod. Trust me i wish i could. The Kent mod was developed to the best of my abilities at the time. I will say one thing though, everything added to that mod was entirely credited correctly and permission sought where necessary. Im not being funny but this would have been so much easier if you had just apologised, hell you might have even been able to keep the mod up, but oh no, you decided to attack the rest of the British community and make yourself look incapable of admitting mistakes. The British community should be working together, not competing against each other but its things like this that have made me not want to release my mod, and i know several other big names in the community feel the same. Its just the same old thing repeated every year. Honestly Welfordshire V1 was and still is one of my favourite mods, all you have done is damage to your own reputation rather than just holding your hands up to it and then seeking permission to release. There are other ways to contact these people rather than just on here. Reach out to people, see if they can help. But please dont slag off what myself and those who have helped me with the Kent mod because of your mistakes. This could have been handed so differently and instead, this is the path that was chosen and i definitely think its the wrong one.

  3. Aye no face no case.. oh wait. Hit and run and the damage is done. You quote "using their work as a a compliment" - To this, a very large element of this community, is getting permission to re-distribute assets. Well unless you been living under a rock, that's the way it always has been. You also comment about other decent mods... Since when was your ripped london mod a decent mod.

  6. I would like to point out that "blanket credit" wasn't the issue by the sounds of it. It was more of the fact of ripping from others mods, without the original mod creators permission...

  7. You know what, that is a really valid point. Doesn't make us any better than this muppet though. Again, completely agreed. Literally nobody is 'targeting' anyone. The situation stands that you just rip assets out of a 'collection of other mods' and claim for it to be your own. Don't know if it is just us decent people, but I would have thought it was common sense until now.

  8. Because people like you and OTHER's not just targeting you... Use assets without perms like nothing. Disgusting attitude and disgusting behavior. Then people wonder why this community is near death or is in the bin.

  9. This is really disappointing to see. You would have thought that anyone creating a mod would have the common decency to credit original owners and not just publicly releasing content that doesn't even belong to them (London Mod). As another big modder has said above @TACRfan (who does have the common decency to credit) - maybe you should take a leaf out of his book?

  10. I didn't know I had the skills to make a mod. I guess I could just stick my name on a mod and claim I made it *shrugs*

  11. This is what has put me off releasing mods, Stuff getting taken and used without permission is one of the most depressing things that can happen to modders and really un-motivates us to work. Im sure you could have just asked for permission and it would have most likely been granted. This is im pretty sure why one of the greatest of all time @itchboyhas retired from modding. All i would want from the community is for a respectful modding community and taking it without asking isnt that. Lets try to pick the UK community up rather than keep holding it down.

  12. This topic has been locked and the download link removed. Unfortunately no permission was gained for any London Mod content to be used, and nonchalant attitudes about using other people's work (no matter how long ago it was released) against their wishes is both morally wrong, and against the terms of use for this site. I am sorry that this has had to happen, but protecting content creators, their work, and their wishes is important.

  13. You shouldn't need to drag it into the installer. I just downloaded the file. The main folder in the zip should go directly to the \Mods directory. Hopefully this helps!
