  • Don't think you are allowed do that, not with someone else's blueprint upgrades or not.

    i checked in the rules, it doesn't say anything about that, it clearly said something about not being able to reupload someone elses blueprint, i think it's fair enough to say that i took inspiration, worst case the admins can delete my post if they think it's inopportune.
    Edit:
    i realized you were the blueprint author, if you want me to delete the post i'll do that

  • kind of a gray area there. i can understand any arguments from both sides. I have always felt if a BP was modified and re shared it should include a mention and a link to the original BP. I recently ran into a similar issue, someone using my plugins to advertise their server on their website and i was never mentioned. still not sure how i feel about it.

  • tldr; you should never post someone else's work without their permission, even if the post includes your own work as well or it isn't EXPLICITLY against the rules. it's just rude and makes people not want to share their work with you/anyone else anymore. just ask for permission or don't use other people's stuff for clout. it's that simple.

    the thing that matters here is the spirit of the rules and respecting fellow creators, like you would want to be respected. even if it's TECHNICALLY not EXPLICITLY mentioned in the rules, it feels bad to have someone take your work and re-share it without asking for your permission (especially if they are calling their version the 'better' version), and the add-ons don't make it less their work, it just makes it also partially yours, and the lack of consent/permission with the original creator means it's not a valid collaboration. therefore, it shouldn't be done, even if you can get away with it.


    If its original version has been modified I don’t see a problem. Heck, the first bp I ever uploaded was an airship I made from other peoples bps put together.

    just cuz you did it and didn't get in trouble doesn't mean it was ever okay to do. a lot of stuff slips through the cracks either because people don't check their pings, or didn't get pinged and others don't have time/interest in researching to see if a blueprint is as original as it claims or not.

    ich kann nur ein bisschen deutsch sprechen (mehr lesen). fur alles andere, es gibt google translate.


    my blueprints are free to use (aside from making real money with them or claiming you made them, obviously), but i would love to see what you do with them, and be sure to credit me when you share projects that involve my work.


    Bitte verlinken Sie zurück zu meinen Blueprint-Threads (oder erwähnen Sie zumindest meinen Namen), wenn Sie Projekte hochladen, die meine Arbeit verwenden.

  • Alpha you are correct, the rules state that you need to be the copyright holder. Which means permission from the author. What I was saying was once you’ve gotten permission, you should still credit the author. We also don’t want to hinder peoples creativity.

    If people feel the need to restrict this is what copyright notices are for on their work. They can also use creative commons notices to be more specific about the type of modifications they will allow and if attribution is necessary - otherwise people will make the mistaken assumption that something posted is done so with the assumption that it is now public domain.

  • I made it so that people could use it and modify if they decorate it as they wish privately, but I fully understand someone wanting to share it when they make a modification and that's fine. However, with permission from the author which is only being polite and the author was mentioned but that doesn't negate the question of seeking permission first. I have no objected to it update/modified version being shared but just because hammer a nail into a wall doesn't mean you build the house haha! I was just merely trying to clarify the situation concerning republishing of other people blueprints. It did need a stove and in some other blueprints I add one so no harm done I suppose. I like the change to the windows and the stove is nice apart from the size of the pipe which I think spoils it a bit but that's just me. :thinking::thumbup:

    yeah, i did my best to not make it too ugly but it ended up being kinda obnoxious...

    in the end i'm very new on this game with just my whooping 11 hours, so definitely a lot of room for me to improve
