gnejs420 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I just wonder, why haven't anyone pointed out the most obvious logic flaw in the OP's reasoning yet? How the hell could the first uploader take credit for 'someone elses work' when no such mod exist yet?The first one to upload the mod obviously could not build on someone elses work,There was no previous mod to 'steal' from, he had to have done it all by himself. If you are too busy yapping on the forums about what and what not you are going to do instead of actually doing it, you certainly do not deserve any credit for that. Also like the above poster mention, most ideas are usally no that orginal anyway.If you can make a mod that is better then whats already out there go ahead and release it,but if you can't, then I'd say there's no point that you upload it, even if you alread did the mod but was beaten to the punch.You just have to live with the fact that someone else was faster then you. Better luck next time. I agree with one thing though, people should babble less about their grand ideas and work more on their mods instead.There's alot of grand plans talked about on the forums, but verry few of those actually result in anything that is downloadable and playable.

Pyro Paul Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I'm not saying that anyone here is going to do this but it might be a good idea to not discuss any mod your going to be making in case someone beats you to the punch and does the mod before you do and then takes credit for your work. to snip this part specifically... What you just said here is impossible. you can steal some ones thunder, and maybe bragging rights or pecking order because one mod is very similar to another and release just a short while before it. but there is no chance that this person would be stealing credit for Your Work unless if he snuck into your house and lifted your hard drive out of your computer.

sumoftwosins Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Unless I was trying to invent the next Counter-Strike, I don't really care if someone runs with the idea. If they beat me too it, that is less work I will have to do. There are a few reasons why someone makes a mod and most of the time it is to fix something in the game... So in that sense, sooner the better. Not to mention the possibility that you and another person have the same idea and plan without knowing it. It happened to me on a patent. Myself and someone on the other side of the country created the same thing I did at nearly the same time. So getting the word out first is probably better. That way is there is someone else thinking of the same thing you are, if they see you are already working on it... they might not try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for me that this map mod I'm making is probably not going to be the only one like it but I want to kind of be the 1st to upload this specific type of map mod. Even though map mods come and go I know 100% for a fact this mod doesn't exist anywhere so I wont discuss exactly what I'm doing and I will only say I am making a map mod...but that could mean anything. Again I'm not saying anyone steals ideas for mods, but why take a chance. Hey man im working on CRI-Squad mod: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1537 please steal it and make it better... i will love you for it... I just whant to have cool mod for me and fr the community and it doesnt metter how or who did for me...moreover i took many of ideas and meshes from other mods and i thank everyone who made this mods....i dont want credits for my work because its not only my work it is something which made from everyone for everyone!!!!

I can relate to what your saying but as they say Rome was'nt built in a day and any good worthwhile mods take awhile and will be worth the wait rather then hurry and pop them out there type thing! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
