Wrench Posted March 1, 2021 Posted March 1, 2021 Seems like it's time to reiterate what is known to many, and remind others as to what we do and stand for here at CombatAce. The following has been copied from the original post in the SF1 Forums. =============================== Most of the best modders in the community have agreed to make their work freely available with few restrictions. These modders have granted blanket permission for you to use their work under the following conditions: 1. The work may not be used in payware projects or in projects that will not be freely distributed under these same terms. 2. The work may not violated any terms of release by converting payware to freeware or freeware to payware. 3. You must give proper credit to the original author in your readme file. 4. If feasible, included the original author's readme along with your new mod file. 5. You must contact the original author for permission of use if more than 30% of the original release is affected by your work. 6. A Mirage Factory file may not be altered or included in a new mod withOUT the permission from a Mirage Factory (or now Mod Mafia) Member. 7. Any scenery or map tile modifications by Wrench require permission to edit, change, or use. 8. Any uploads of mods to Dev A-Team products are limited to ini edits, and skins/decals. They have requested that NOTHING of theirs be stored or shared or passed around outside their own members-only website. 2/28/2021 Update: As you all can see, there are name of many Modders who are no longer part of the SF/SF2 community. Rather than run down each name, it's being left in it's original state. Those wishing to make changes on products produced by the retired Modders, should consult one of the Admin Staff or other SF series Modders. We will judge each upon it's own merits for community upload and sharing. Don't take it upon yourselves to arbitrarily do something without at least consulting via PM or posting in the Mods/Skinning or in the General Discussion Threads Thank You Signatories to this agreement are (latest additions in bold): 101tfs 542Tiger (aka 331KillerBee) 76.IAP-Blackbird AleDucat allenjb42 AmokFloo baffmeister Baltika bender41 bobrock Brain32 CA_Stary Caesar Capitaine Vengeur ChampionsVA56 charley111 CIACHO Cocas column5 comrpnt CoolHand29 (MiGbuster) Corktip14 craigbrierley (Bongodriver) CrimsonRoamer Deadhead Dels Deuces Doghouse drdoyo dwcace erikgen EricJ Erwin_Hans ext FalconCAF FastCargo Firecage FLOGGER23 Fracture Fubar512 gambit168 Geezer Gepard ghostrider883 gillg Gocad GrinchWSLG Heck hgbn hi ho silver HrntFixr JA 37 Viggen Jan Tuma JAT81500 Jarhead1 jeanba JimBeamer#5 johnrey JRBeers JSF_Aggie Jtin Jug Julhelm kct Kesselbrut KingAlbert Klavs81 Krfrge Kulbit80 Longestpants littlesmoke LloydNB Major Lee malibu43 mikeymead MontyCZ mppd muesli PACMAN pcpilot p10ppy Paladrian pappychksix pcpilot PFunk pureblue Rambler 1-1 Raven ravenclaw_007 Red Dragon Designs Royohboy Russouk2004 scouserlad13 Shaolin Sheriff001 Signum Silverbolt Spinners Soulfreak Spitwulf STORM suhsjake SUICIDAL Syrinx Tailspin Talos The Trooper thundercheif Timmy Tristan Typhoid USAFMTL (Dave) ValAstur (ex - NazGhul) Veltro2k Viper63 WarlordATF Warwolf01 whiteknight06604 wilco wingwiner WombRaider wpnssgt Wrench, The *** Special Cases ONLY X RAY yakarov79 Zurawski UllyB Menrva *** Special Cases *** Daddyairplanes This applies only to work released individually as freeware. Not as part of a team (unless the team name is listed) or anything released as payware. If you have any questions, please get in contact with the modder and work things out. If a person's name (handle) is NOT on this list, it is rightly assumed that they =DO NOT= want any of their work used in any way, shape or form without their having given permission for it to be modified and uploaded. This does not mean you can't fiddle to you heart's content FOR YOUR OWN PERSONAL USAGE. It just means you cannot share it, here, there, or anywhere. Violations of this agreement are grounds for permanent banning of the offending users. There will be no exceptions or appeals Any Modders wanting their names removed, or added, simply contact one of the Admin or Moderating Staff, and we'll take care of. ======== 11
Wrench Posted March 1, 2021 Author Posted March 1, 2021 *** Wrench Special Cases ONLY means that I'm removing my permission for modification to any and all my terrain work. I'm tired of seeing hundreds of hours of research and build time get tossed around like a cheap soda can. Every one of my terrain works is heavily researched to nth degree, and are the best possible product, given the Engine Limitations. When one of my terrains is finished and released, you can bet your ass it's 98.6% True to Life IF such modifications/changes & whathaveyous are needed, they'll have to go through ME first, and have a pretty good, and powerfully convincing reason as just why they are needed. However, all my aircraft, skins, groundobjects, etc are STILL covered under the Freeware accords, and may be used as freely as they've ever been; just spell my name right in the credits. *** Special Cases 2: Menrva *** "I wish to state that my terrain packages (and also the ODS comprehensive mod I released) are not part of that licensing.
