Porting SMWC ExGFX yay/nay?

[Romhackski]

I've recently found an easy way to convert GFX to SMBX2 textures. Would this be okay if I either give credit or receive permission from the creator? Specifically Gamma V.

Hello!

That's definitely depends on the license that is used by author. Credits giving is de-facto mandatory requirement with no matter how do you use the borrowed stuff. Authors at the SMBXorg and everywhere around here usually implicitly give the reuse permission with the credits giving requirement, and the main requirement that commercial use is strictly phoribited until the license and/or author explicitly allows that.

But, if author is not gone forever, and is reachable, it would be more polite to ask the permission. Especially if no usage permissions is explained.
