Which will be published on my server and with engine on release. If you used the copyright matherials with my engine and published on the other server, only you will have responsibility. Before engine release, I will remove any copyright matherials from my server and move to the Joey's or to other server which will be as SMBX/PGE project official site. If SMBX will be kicked by Nintendo again, our engine will be live, even without SMBX's content.Sambo wrote:Does this include ALL projects, or just the ones included with the engine on release?
Considering what you said, what bothered Nintendo most was the fact Redigit was both parasitising brands and stealing "consumers" (attracting kids), not the copyright infringement.Alucard wrote:Ok, You think, that using any material, that is even remotely looking like copyrighted ones (down to last tile and sound effect) can instantly lead to massive takedown by copyright holders, like Nintendo? If it`s true, why things, like Mario FanGames Galaxy(hosts Mario fangames), SmwCentral (has Super Mario World ROM Hacks and resources to create them), Zelda Classic (A freeware, but closed source, engine for Zelda-styled Action Adventure games. His download even bundles with carbon copy of original Zelda 1 game.), not to mention the massive copyright voilators, like Mushroom Kingdom Fusion and his sister projects, are still live and healthly? All it takes is one properly written Cease and Desist letter to devastate each of these communities with no proper way to fight back. Those communities look nothing more like giant bubbles hidden in bunkers in the eyes of Nintendo.

Oh, great! I can really say, yes, go for itMikepjr wrote:I am volunteering to make custom graphics!!!!
They would be similar in style, but very different in exicution.
I offered many times before to work on some stuff for this project.. so far no one has said "yes please go for it!"
But if you guys want it, i am going to start with some custom graphics for the players themselves.
My "super kid" graphics might be good for mario....
Just need ideas for replacements of the other guys.
Oh yeah i was thinking i would replace link with a proper looking knight in armor type sprite.
SO yeah, just let me know, and i will get to work ASAP.
Also, you can license your graphics under CC license http://creativecommons.org/choose/, is not recommended public content without licenses.Mikepjr wrote:Great, i took it upon myself to make a thread in the Art section, it showcases some of the things i have so far, and i even invite people to post their own creations to replace stuff.. or just give their own ideas.
