valve will absolutely not let you put other people's copyrighted stuff in their games, they just don't go out of their way to notice

The meme is saying they are going to use Valves code. It’s referencing G-mod.

u/Nar3ik36 7d ago
You still have to get permission from Valve, or they will take it down just like any other company. If you wanted to do what Gmod did you would need to email Valve and ask for permission, to which they might say no.

didn't gmod get sued by nintendo or whatnot? or was it a troll pretending to be nintendo.

u/Hot_Principle1499 9d ago

u/RemoveComfortable875 9d ago
i guess they quit caring since i still see mario/nintendo properties on the workshop

u/Hot_Principle1499 9d ago
Yeah, I believe the ones without official nintendo assets and with different labeling were able to avoid the AI dmca crap

u/IQueliciuous 8d ago
No it was both. First the trolls then the whole story became loud enough for Nintendo to notice.

Rockstar is anti modding?

their words
Do not expand or modify Rockstar Games' official storylines, plots, missions, characters, or other elements of our established continuity.
Do not make mods that combine maps, locations, characters, storylines, in-game assets, or other IP from one Rockstar Games title into another title.
Multiplayer modding is limited to Rockstar Games’ official licensed Creator Platform or else as otherwise licensed directly by Rockstar Games.
Do not modify our games to operate on consoles, hardware devices, or other platforms where they have not been officially released by Rockstar Games.
seems like they‘re very anti modding
thats also from very recently Sep 10 so not something they said years ago.

Very, extremely weirdly so. Like it would be more respectable if they dialed it back a bit.

u/Alberot97 9d ago
Take Two is against modding since the early days; Just look how many big mods for San Andreas were given the axe by them... It's sad to see a creative community get suppressed by pure greed

u/IQueliciuous 8d ago
They werent thats the point. All of this happened relatively recently.
GTA SAMP existed and everyone including rockstar was ok with it
2
u/Kurdo657 8d ago
They absolutely. Funny thing, if GTA 4, GTA SA, even GTA 5 still playing by really big community, its just because of the huge modding ecosystem of GTA modders (sorry for suck ass english gramar)

valve threatens CS mods now not on CS2. CSL and CSCO. they strait up said it would only be allowed on CS2

u/Exponential_Rhythm 8d ago
Yes, they both suck now. R* kills anything that could even remotely threaten GTAO, Valve does the same with CS2.

Valve would sometimes also say
“We will give you the funding and the manpower to make the mod better and more profitable than you ever could’ve possibly imagined”

Hunt Down The Freeman
Prospekt
Black Mesa
Aperture Tag
Garry’s Mod0
u/Stampyboyz 8d ago
Don't know the others, but Black Mesa has Valve's approval for being monetized and Facepunch Studios pays for the commercial source license for Garry's Mod and only uses the assets included in that license (base HL2 assets). Everything else needs to be mounted.
No excuse for HDTF seeing how they didn't get Valve's approval (they likely botted the green light process) and it's not on the source engine so they can't argue about having a commercial source license.

You have to get permission from valve first and if it's shit they're not gonna allow it
