Before posting your Resource, please make sure you can answer YES to any of the following questions:
  • Is the resource ENTIRELY my own work?
  • If no to the previous one, do I have permission from the original author?
  • If no to the previous one, did I put a reasonable amount of work into the resource myself, such that the changes are noticeably different from the source that I could take credit for them?
If you answered no to all three, maybe you should consider taking your stuff somewhere other than the Resources forum.

Consult the Resource/Request Posting Guidelines for more information.

Please don't put requests here! They have their own forum --> here. Thank you!

Ermm...TBH I'm not sure how to respond to the fact that mine and Rott's work now makes up the majority of something that will almost inevitably be credited as "A community texture pack by Tormentor667" :?

Wait, isn't there-

Oh, I get it. By including that set, you're ensuring that this is the only Heretic texture pack people should have. And because it's by you (omg <3 tormentor!!!!), no one will bother to make another.

The word "typical" would come to mind were I in your position.

I don't think it's very nice to use essel's and rottking's textures, recolour them, and then rebrand them under a different name, Torm. :(

Did I do this? :? Both would be still credited and it's not a "Community Project by Tormentor667" ... :| Actually if both of you mind, I can remove the Essel- and Rottking textures again and do the recolours myself, I just thought that there is no need to do the same work twice which results in the same output. Or I will just ask icy for his recolors that he mentioned a few posts before.

What do you want to say?
What I was saying is that (as I understand it) he feels that he and rottking did the work, and as you've grouped it into a larger resource wad and turned it into a realm667 feature it would rather feel as though you've stolen their thunder, so to speak. You've not actually taken anything off of them, but from now on it'll be part of "that Heretic texture pack on realm667". Even if they get the credit they deserve, it will be associated with your site. Rather like how the DECORATE monsters people have made are swiftly becoming "The Beastiary Monsters"

It's more of a comment than a complaint. I don't specifically object to what you're doing, and to be honest it is helpful to have everything all in one place. It's just that ever niggling doubt that now resources will have come from realm667, rather than the original authors.

What makes that different from having all the wads on /idgames?

Do not forget: I do not earn money with my site nor is it important for me to read others saying: "Realm667 is the best resource site all over the world!", it's simply that I want to help keep things organized and in one spot

/idgames is considered neutral ground (well... for uploading wads anyway), as although it is owned and operated by a Team TNT member (I think :? ), it is basically a community resource. It's not "Ty's Doom Archive" or anything.

Still, whatever the case, as I said, what you are doing is useful and you are certainly being helpful by doing it. To be honest it'd be the same if anybody else tried to collate as many resources as possible onto their site as well. People would start associating the resources with the site more than anything else.

At least I made Realm667 a more neutral ground since doing the redesign.

I have to admit, the longer I work on these things, the more interested I get in Heretic mapping :) But I'd be happy if we would get some more original contributions :(
