MAD_BOY Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 1: servers will be able to specify their mod 2: why would modders be blacklisted? Link to comment
Guest Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 I heard about blacklist that, mta team are gonna bann from mta blue all the known modders like me (CZ3) and JeReMiZ Why ? if this mta blue will gonna be a mod supporting MP .. Link to comment
Scorp Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Well modding the current core is against the EULA, the current MTA:mA blacklist applies for the current version to keep of modders ruining other peoples games. Blue will have add-ons that you will be able to release online for other server admins to download and use on their server, Blue will also have another kind of anti-cheating so the blacklist probably won't be needed anymore Link to comment
Ransom Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 You have caused lots of problems... but tell me, I'm just wanting to hear this answer from one of the infamous modders out there, will you still be trying to break the rules when BLUE comes out? Meaning trying to use different sets of rules or regulations in other servers not to your liking? For example a server that would become famous but not set how you like it? Link to comment
JacoB Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 There are two types of MTA modders. The type who purposely ruin gameplay and actually try to piss people off, and the type who try to make gameplay funner for themselves. I don't know if CZ3 uses his map mods in public servers, but I know that other people have, and CZ3 is to blame for it. His maps can be very very fun, with the insane ramps and stunts he adds to the map, but it all depends on how Blue will handle map mods. If it blocks them, chances are he will still continue to make them, and if it allowed them, chances are his maps would be more publicly / legally used. So basically, the answer to 'are you going to try to use different sets of rules in blue servers', lies in the MTA Team's hands. The real question is, are you going to allow map mods. Link to comment
Slothman Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 you can't blame a modder for making a mod and someone putting it in mta, unless the mod was designed specifically for mta Link to comment

Slothman Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 i see....well then string him up Link to comment
eAi Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 I think that the issue here is like any "law". If a law is about to change, it doesn't mean that is has. MTA Blue may support modding, but 0.4.x doesn't. Concequently, anyone who mods 0.4.5 is breaking the EULA. There are no plans to blacklist modder as far as I know. The argument that "I mod just because I want to have fun on my own server" is all very well, until you set up a site releasing your "modded" files to anyone who wants to go and ruin other people's games. I'm not saying that we support any kind of modding in 0.4.x, just that there clearly is a difference between ruining other people's games (even if indirectly) and messing around on your own server... eAi Link to comment
Gareth Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 just for interest what are the MTA Team entitled to do if someone mods with all this legal stuff? Link to comment
XcR Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 2. You are not allowed to alter any binaries or libraries that came with the software. This includes, but is not limited to reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling and hex editing. An exception can be made for educational purposes although this requires a new license which has to be requested to and approved by the MTA team or when such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation*Note: You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it (not accepting means you are not allowed to install/use MTA). However, nothing else grants you permission to modify the program. These actions are prohibited by law. Link to comment
Gareth Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 no but can they sue or arrest you for doing that Link to comment
XcR Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 well its prohibitied by law, so probably. Link to comment

Gareth Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 it would be funny if peeps actually did get sued or arrested for it! Link to comment
eAi Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 In theory we could take modders to court and sue them for breaching an agreement, in practice, that isn't going to happen any time soon as we're poor. It does have quite a bit of clout with ISPs though. eAi Link to comment
NoxxeR Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 If you go to there site they put links to other sites and they have health mod and other mods it's obvious they are big time cheating not just moding Link to comment
Slothman Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 it shouldnt be the consequences of your actions you should be concerned about, If that's all that holds you back from doing something, then it really says something about the kind of person you are. Link to comment

Guest Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Except the modders are probly poor arses too, wouldmaybe teach em a lesson in debt managemement though Link to comment
Mealing Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 half the modders are probably 14-15 year olds that would probably land their parents in a ton of shit if they were caught. Link to comment
Guest Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 half the modders are probably 14-15 year olds that would probably land their parents in a ton of shit if they were caught. and how old are you son?...please. stop the flaming, because these kind of topics usually get locked. Link to comment
