Interesting. Nothing to do with spriting and therefore nothing to do with this thread, but I'll throw my hands up and happily admit you've accomplished more than I thought you had.

Not too keen on some of that material work, though - that Hell Knight in the Workshop page screenshots looks like it's just the basetexture, the rest seem to be kind of lacking in how their de-HDRification was handled compared to, say, BlueFlytrap's mesh-stacking tricks in the SFM ports... I guess GMod doesn't have the CustomHero shader or whatever, though...

I thought you said you weren't doing GZDoom stuff anymore? Unless you're counting "ZDoom" as 2D only and "GZDoom" as 3D models only, which is dumb and also ZDoom's been dead for quite a while.

You do realise that not only porting a Zenimax/Bethesda property, but whole sale ripping it (animations, sounds, mechanics) and cramming it into GMOD (another company's property), and releasing it on an official channel of a distributer's platform (Steam Workshop) might be a bit risky an "experiment"?

Don't get me wrong, this community often stepts into legal (IPs) grey areas but these are so far removed from practical reality, that even 20th Century Fox stopped persuing Alien mods for this kind of - literal - fan service to their property. When you port something to a sprite based mod for GZDoom you're practically "demaking" it, or, pulling from public domain or abandon ware or simply "use fair" - and people mostly don't persue commercial interests with this kind of creative hobby (also, one can basically play GZDoom for free using Freedoom).

You, on the other hand, are pushing it with this project. I mean you no harm and hope you keep learning the crafts and arts but, you know, just saying...

1 - I added credits to ID and Bethesda. I said that all of it by them.

2 - Its a FREE mod, I am not selling it for money.

3 - Its a over nine thousands of people ripped something from DOOM. And nobody has problems related to copyright.

4 - I am export assets from game I bought, not pirated.

1. Never stopped any corporation from issuing a takedown notice.
2. Also never stopped any corporation from issuing a takedown notice.
3. Most likely the reason for this is that Zenimax are not aware of it. They don't specifically go hunting this stuff down, because that's not their job.
4. Owning the license to install and play a game on your computer is not the same as owning the copyright to its assets.

Not to belabor the point, but allow me to cite the case of a mod called Generations, for Quake 2. They had ported content from Quake 1 into the Quake 2 engine. This included weapon models and maps. id Software issued that mod a Cease and Desist notice. The primary reason that they are not doing that here is that they have not been made aware of any violation of their copyrights on this forum.

I, personally, do not have any right to tell you not to do what you're doing, but I do want you to at least be aware of how things work.
