Do you guys think that this breaks copyright?

[bosky2102]

I was just wondering the other day if this mod Recipe Remover (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic...s-v126-and-recipe-remover-v11-updated-122013/) could be seen by some mod devs are breaking there copyright. Such as the Computer Craft mods copyright Listed below.

I also give permission for ComputerCraft to be included in any and all mod packs, provided that the ComputerCraft files are included completely unmodified.

What do you guys think?

that mod doesnt directly modify the files in computer craft so it's fine i'm pretty sure

it just makes the item ID not be able to be crafted, or something like that afaik.

The fact that this is even an issue is just sad.

It isn't an issue. The OP was asking if it was, not informing that it was.

Completely a non-issue. Mod files aren't touched, only values in the recipe hashmap contained in memory.

Pretty sure that what GW was referring to as "sad" is that the MC community as a whole is in a state where its members feel the need to ask questions like this.

Yeah, this is analogous to reading a book out loud and whimsically replacing the names of the characters with the names of your friends. The author of the book can't take action against you because you aren't changing the product.

minecraft logic: the creator of the game doesn't give a single f*** about people pirating his game that he worked for it a long time and he gets paid for it... meanwhile a random person on the internet does a mod for free and as a hobby and expects to get credit/full copyright like the internet was a court.
