Automobilista 2 March 2023 Development Update

Okay, if that's the case, I would donate a couple bucks towards a new 3d model.

However, I'm assuming there is only so many ways you can laser scan a spec car... Which most of these 3D models are.

 

100% isnt

 

My money is either on Reiza themselves or Indycar/MSG playing a role in it getting taken down. I don't know the percentage but how many mods for AC are ripped from RF1, AMS1, GPL and countless other games. I just don't get why this would be taken down but not the countless other mods.

 

The people running the AC section of RD delete like 90% of all mods there.

 

Just because mods with ripped stuff exist means not it’s ok to use ripped stuff for mods.
In fact, mods need to get out of this illegal zone. Best for the whole mod scene.

 

I am not saying I agree with ripping mods but I am saying that it doesn't make sense for that to be the reason it was taken down.

 

I will put my money where my mouth is, if the issue is a 3-D model I will donate $100 paypal towards the Kaos team getting a new one.

I don't know how far that will go, and honestly I doubt it's needed because I believe the Kaos team saying they bought a 3d model.

But I will not stand by and let the best indycar experience I've had in a game disappear for no good reason

 

From the discussion on Discord it sounds like they're working with RD now to sort out the issue.

 

Could it not be something to do with the official liveries and sponsors etc being released with the car mod?

I doubt it. There are plenty of livery packs available for AMS2 with official liveries, no?

 

Lol, you don't see me talking in that same chat?

 

Oh fk I didn't get the opportunity to download it.... since yesterday my Youtube is popping up with how awesome the AMS2 IndyCar mod is, but I couldn't get time to download the files.

 

Guys just take a look at Koas modding website, the models are either taken from the Project CARS series, the NFS Shift Series or even AMS 2.

Just compare the Indycar from PC3 with the mod and you'll see, it's exactly the same (apart from the Halo). The release notes also say updates to the model, not modelled by or something.

Ripping official content out of other games is not allowed on RD. With content build from scratch and ported to other platforms with permission from the original author is not a problem.

 

So let me get this straight. SMS made a **** game that no one bought or plays and now are going around making DMCA claims. Look I am not in favor of stealing other peoples work but this **** is getting out of control.

 

I honestly think this whole ripping gatekeeping from modders nowadays is one of the stupidest thing ever
Rips from other games always were common and allowed the modders to save time. I only see a problem in ripping mods if you are charging for it, if you don't why bother honestly?

 

Honestly for me as long as you are not stealing from another modder or selling the ripped content like those RTM clowns from AC i don't see a problem
Let's say i port the FIA GT1 cars from shift 2 to AMS 2, I extremely doubt thats gonna affect EA in any shape or form, its not gonna cost them on sales or anything (specially considering that shift 2 got delisted)

 

NFS shift never had any Indycar, the only Licensed series there as far as I remember were the drag racing one from that DLC, Formula Drift, European GT3 and the FIA GT1
