Ripping the weapons from Rage?
With Rage out, I'm pretty sure it's inevitable that people are start ripping the resources like the weapons even the sounds don't you think?

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
For the record, I would NOT recommend ripping them until the game's popularity has gone down enough.

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
In "off topic" there's a topic for discussing Rage itself. Number of replies: 0. At the same moment, the topic for pilfering resources from it, number of replies: 3.
It's sad.

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
What I gathered from #zdoom last night, it does not sound very spectacular. Then again, I wouldn't rip its resources either way, seeing it be a game so new. That and I'd prefer original stuff above ripped stuff anyway.

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
Yeah - I honestly don't think they should be ripped for at least a few months.

Ideally, yes. But you can't stop it from happening eventually.Gez wrote:Or, like, at all.
I suppose what I could do here, though, is a Zero Tolerance Policy: any posting of resources from Rage will be removed.

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
Do we have to wait 15 years to rip the resources from it?

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
Seems weird to make a policy banning only a single game's resources, unless you decide to ban all rips ever. What's the big deal? If someone makes great Rage rips, that's great. If they make crappy ones, we'll ignore them.wildweasel wrote:I suppose what I could do here, though, is a Zero Tolerance Policy: any posting of resources from Rage will be removed.

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
Would it make you happier if I said this is only temporary? I just think it's kind of uncool for a game to only be out for a few days and have people already wanting to distribute rips.Xaser wrote:Seems weird to make a policy banning only a single game's resources, unless you decide to ban all rips ever.

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
The hell? Ripping resources from Rage is not a good idea but only because they wouldn't fit in doom at all. BUT if someone ripped AND edited the weapons so that they fit doom, or even just distributed the weapons so that someone could edit them (this has been done before anyway), where would the problem be? It'd have enough original content imo.Gez wrote:Or, like, at all.
But yeah, as long as it's just temporary that's fine.

Re: Ripping the weapons from Rage?
It seems like a very unnecessary exception to make. It's just gonna tempt someone to slide down the slippery slope at some point.
