We've already "lost" excellent modders over that kind of nonsense - and now Pomigit seems to be giving up too. Their own negativity is more likely to cause the opposite effect to the one they want. If that's their intent, it's at least one thing they're doing right. One thing that doesn't seem to have sunk in, is that they're actually making it more visible by being combative. But they won't be left holding the proverbial bag. If it came to that, I'm sure they'd wander off and find something else, after a good moan about it.
The people doing most of the whining won't have to face any legal ramifications. Either it's a bunch of children who don't know any better. I know for a fact that Pomigit in particular, was getting an incredibly childish response simply because the BHI team decided to call their project off. What they say after that is likely based on the response they get. As far as I'm aware most modders ask for the material to be removed without being abusive. And have preferred instead, to keep the ball rolling. But probably you have more legally experience than my in IP sued cases over internet, can you provide us legal documentation about this issue? A lot of bullshit could be avoided if people just pull the stuff they haven't created themselves when asked in a reasonable way.īut unfortunately they don't. In a worst case scenario every assets and his creators involved with permission or not can be sued against you and have a lot of troubles, in my own legal experience in a trial everything can be used against you in a trial, that why I make the previous post. In the end its a shitty situation no matter what, you've already had tens of thousands of people download it so the only thing you can do is try to keep it off steam. So while yes its shitty that there has been content stolen, the most they can do is have the mod taken down. So unless you want Disney lawyers starting to look at you, which if I recall correctly was the reason why IA was shut down in the first place that being they didn't want to get hit with legal issues. I just made an account to respond to this, legally any and all content they've made star wars related belongs to Disney.
People might want a star wars mod, sure, but that doesnt absolve all the legal and moral issues with content theft. This 'opposition' mod doesnt have any real argument for them, as they are just pirates and nothing else. This really isn't about two teams needing to make up. Because if there's any legal issue they can be legally sued even if they dont release his mod, in legal terms you have think, ever, ever in the worst case scenario. I suggest to the BHI guys that make a complete compilation of all the proofs related to this issue.
