WHAT ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW?

You have literally no moral obligation to freely distribute anything custom you make. It's up to the creator to descide the rights and use.

You aren't being selfish or ego centric. You're slaving away at something for days and weeks on end because you have passion. If you want to keep it for your own use that's damn well fine.

I remember years ago when Neverwinter Nights was a thing that content creators would make all sorts of tilesets, monsters, etc, but somewhere down the line it became from being community driven to "For the Glory Hogging". CEP was the answer for some of the problems (though it had it's drawbacks on technical issues), but in reality there a lot of High-Quality work that was never being shared, and being stuck to this day on PW worlds (Multiplayer Worlds). Want to see a badass looking Carrion Crawler? Too bad..we can't let the unwashed masses use our work, but you can enjoy the more crappy looking ones!

We also had problems of Content Creators forcing people to sit in one camp or the other, but didn't think of the possibility to merge their projects together in order to provide a better NWN experience. It baffles me those same people today are still stuck on that train of thought, but not realizing that this is what destroyed the community.

I always preach a Modding community fails when nobody wants to work together for a common goal which is providing what we make, and merge our works together instead of going against each other.

Just thinking about the NWN community leaves me a little sour because there was so much potential, but it was devolved into petty bickering.

This conversation kind of reminded me of it, but I can't say that NWN, and RMN are too similar as there is some differences.

Now I think about it I think it would be neat to see a Technical RMN tool that has a script auto-generator for any basic events since NWN had something like this. It would be good for beginners, and useful for advanced script Users looking to make some shortcuts.

By the way @ Hextona -

I've noticed the same thing with Video Game Remixers, and that does not seem to stop them either to sell their remixes on Bandcamp, and support through Patreon. I don't know how they even get away with that unless they're providing some kind of cut-deal with the original composer. At the same time though..I think the original composers may not really care about it since Video Game Music is not really a big mainstream seller, and probably never will be. Video Game Music seems to be in this really really strange area that I can't really describe.

Script auto-generator

>Sudo script-add random_

So... it sounds like it's basically the same as eventing instead of scripting in RPG Maker.

I'm still worried. Or idk ah shiut.

Karin: Over-stimulation avenue is not viable local for your business Xoe. Much like the moon, the cost is to high to maintain, ethically.
Xoe: Well fuck me! Why didn't I think of that sooner!!!!
Karin: Yup. Can't save them but maybe you could safe her?

Kloe: Perhaps. If we do some soul manipulation here and there, maybe change her genetic structure too with some highly toxic radiation..?
Karin: Ahhh Wundabar!!!!! Truly the plan of a genius
Claire: hehe, heh. well she did say shes a programmer, therefore she must be my programmer. just gota somehow clean all that ice off her, start shoving moda down her throat too.
ect ect.

(all start laughing in unison)

Open source FTW.

gim,y all;l ur base

Resources made for 16 bit console RPGs were made only for those games, yet it doesn't stop most of us from using them in our hobby projects.

So, give them away or not, people who want will use them.

Cool of people who allow others to use their resources, but I understand people who don't. Both make sense for different reasons.

URGH - Writers of Earth - have you no shame?

Do you know how many books I have just sorted through that follow this whole thing in the description?

"-Artsy Female Name- led a picture-perfect life — until -something-. But then, When a handsome stranger shows up, -Artsy Female Name- will find out -something-"

Like, Jesus Christ, people. Twilight died eons ago. Let it go.

Crediting Twilight for this trope is laughable.

Sharing your homework defeats the purpose of homework; its purpose is for each person to learn the material and prove that they've learned it. The homework itself has no intrinsic value, the value comes in the act of figuring out how to do it on your own, because the goal of doing homework is your own self-improvement.

Sharing your graphics fulfills the purpose of the graphics; their purpose is to allow art to be created. Art is intrinsically valuable, and cooperating to create it has no downside because the goal of making art is for the world to have more/better art.
