Reusing Textures (from maps supplied with the installer)

cjeshjoir™ · 12-15-2009, 11:13 PM

Are there any issues (licensing, distribution, creator preference) with me using textures from maps supplied with the FF installer?

Example: Avanti textures in Flagrun.

no problem at all I'm pretty certain!!

What if I used a texture from a map made by a 'Retired FF Staff' map? For example, one of the textures in ff_dropdown is perfect for the map I'm making, and I'm pretty certain it wasn't included in the default FF textures.

If you think it is such a problem put credit to them in a map readme. But pretty much all textures are fair game, especially from FF

Any FF texture is completely fine for FF mappers to use.

Good news, but I'll definitely make sure to give credit where it's due if I borrow a texture from a decompiled map.
