FE Asset Repository Discussion Thread


A small smattering of things that have been in the Repo for years and are directly ripped from other games. You’ve waited this long to say something? A charitable man would say that’s because you weren’t aware of their existence until just today, but I think the more likely reason is the simple logic of “Klok is saying something so I must inherently disagree.”

And the reason I’m sure that is the case…

This animation, and others, existed years ago in the SF forums and on FEU, this very forum, in the topic you ran, but said nothing about. You would think that if adding content ripped from other games was a problem, you would have said something sooner.

I don’t play Touhou. I don’t know anything about it. I see people who made the sprites or who otherwise claimed to, submitting them to a public repo for other people to enjoy and use.
Will I ever use them? Not even remotely.
Will I rain on their parade for seemingly no reason? Also no.

Now, if you have proof these people didn’t make the sprites or don’t have the right to post them, or that the original creators wouldn’t want to post them… fair enough. I’ll be happy to remove them.

I want to thank you for your demonstrated professionalism and coolness of head. Unrelated: This might be why people don’t like to post on the FEU forums these days.
