Title: Creator's Permissions
Post by: JustNoPoint on January 08, 2004, 06:34:32 pm
This topic is for creators to announce if their creations are open source or what
part's of it (sprites, codes, etc) can be freely used be other users and/or creators.

for example :

by Mr. X (url *):
xxxx (only sprites)

by Mr. Y
yyyy (only coding)

* : where to get the character or who you should ask to have it if the char is unavailable

Creators can add themselves to this list by replying to this thread stating what they want to be open source of their creations.

YOU CAN ONLY USE THIS OPEN SOURCE STUFF IF YOU CREDIT THE ORIGINAL CREATORS.

You are encouraged to try and contact creators anyway, as many would surely like to know what is being made in part thanks to some of their work.

You are also encouraged to allow others to use at least a part of what you've created thanks to the things you use from this list, so others may benefit in the same way that you have.

Post by: Sheng Long on January 08, 2004, 06:48:55 pm
OOhkaayy... I have some gripes about this.

1. Will Noobs even bother looking here before starting their own creations?

2. Will they even give us credit for the work?

3. I don't think many mugen creators will use this, IMO, considering they put a lot of work into their creations and they want to be given the credit for their mugen work.

BTW, KFM is already open source, since it was made by Elecbyte, and is a base for all mugen characters.

You read my mind you... ;P

"Too Deep" stage (everything), author Loona (http://www.geocities.com/ikariloona)

VIB doesn't seem to be registered here, but he declares all of his work free to be used by anyone at his site, so I'll list it here to help this get started:

Bola (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
Super Kung Fu Man (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
Vegetto (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
Aplelão (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
Stage1 (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
Hong Kong (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
China (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
England (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
Spain (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
Japan (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)
Bison F (everything), author VIB (http://www.geocities.com/vibhp/)

Join the list and help stop the paranoia! ;P


Edit: can someone confirm or deny if TESTP's old creations were allowed to be freely used? Even if they no longer have a site, somebody out there is bound to have all or some of their stuff, so it could still be requested...
Title: Re:Creators Code Permissions
Post by: Alexandra on January 08, 2004, 08:43:49 pm
mary (kof99 i think) by testp is free to use but unavailable to download.
I have this mary btw.

new Mouser characters are free to use as we can see in the readme :
"Reproduction and alteration can be performed freely."
this include Keith and Rasputin available here (http://mouser.mgbr.net/)

Athena 2k2 sff (sff only) can by use with credit obviously because there is no edited sprites (http://queens.ekzay.org/cutemugen/)
 
Title: Re:Creators Code Permissions
Post by: Messatsu on January 08, 2004, 08:53:16 pm
Officially unofficially my sff's and snd's are "open source".  The rest however, will not be.  Considering I haven't physically released anything since 2 years ago, this doesn't matter at this point.

SFZ Guy (only sprites) author Messatsu
SFZ Ken (only sprites) author Messatsu
SvC Sagat (only sprites and sounds) author Messatsu (after the Dev sanction)

It is likely you would have to contact this fellow via PM.

Edit: Conformed to the standard since I just read the first post. :P

Post by: Fou-Lu on January 09, 2004, 02:37:34 am
Regardless of rather they say "open source" for their coding or not I think it's still a good idea to email the original creator.

Personally if I was a creator offering this (I'm not btw)I'd like to know who was doing what with my work.

Also some creators may wish to dl your work to see if it does in fact advance or detract from their own.

I don't think people should be putting other people's names on this list without the original author knowing about it.  -_-

Fare thee well

Well, I might add mine as well:

Andy Gb (http://ma.smeenet.org/files/AndyGb.rar)
Buffed Up Karate Gb (http://ma.smeenet.org/files/HNNKarate.rar)

The only thing I ask other people to mention is that the AI activation code that is used was first developed by Kamek (or at least keep the mention in the cns, as I do). Otherwise, one can take those, change the creator name in DEF file, make another readme.txt and release them as their own.

Have fun.

Absolutely (well, almost) everything from me, past, present, and future, is free to use however the heck you want to.  Credit is certainly appreciated, but not at all required.
Exceptions:
-I make no claims about having the right to allow the use of the intellectual property of the game companies I've ripped sprites, music, or designs from.  But, I'm not about to disallow it either; I'll leave that up to them to decide about and enforce.
-My AI activation code is largely based on various other people's code (albeit with rather heavy modification).  My version of the code is free to use, but credit to those people should be given unless they've specified otherwise.
-Use of Sffextract is governed by the terms and conditions as specified in the GNU General Public License, a copy of which is distributed along with Sffextract.  (If I release any other software in the future, it'll be either the same, or perhaps just public domain.)



As for T.E.S.T.P, this is an excerpt from the text file that came with their U.N.I.T.E.D. release 8:

Quote
Wanna put these charas in your game? Wanna use the
sprites or sounds? Sure, go ahead! We don't really
mind if you wanna rip our characters apart and
figure out how some things are done, as long as it
means you can use it to improve your own characters.
Enjoy!

-TESTP

So I guess that covers pretty much all their stuff, except possibly their Yuri.  I don't think I have her, but I'd be surprised if the same policy didn't apply.

Nothing is mentioned in Ryuri's documentation about this, but I think it's safe to assume that the "our characters" bit in the UNITED pack also covers her.

So the characters are:

Blue Mary (everything), author TESTP
Guile (everything), author TESTP
Shinobu (everything), author TESTP
Xia Hou Dun (everything), author TESTP
Yuri C-Type/Ryuri (everything), author TESTP

Should we assume the same applies to their stages?...

Chotto-Komaru

Sinasta asked him for permission to use his effect sprites along with me as well.  So I guess he grants everone permission to use his effect sprites (as in hit sparks and super backgrounds) as long as you give him credit as stated above by Nunor.

Quote:

Since the effect picture of my character is a free material, use freely.

Since most is reconstruction from the existing fighting game,
there is no right which takes out permission to me.

Then, please do your best in character creation.

MaJiTa made available several sprite sheets of DBZ characters at the ZGTeam site:

http://www.zgteam.com/ - look for the "Sprite Sheets" link in the manu to the left, under the "Multimedia" category - you will then find a list of characters organized by game of origin, each link corresponding to a different sprite sheet (single image with most/all sprites the character uses, so you still have to align them in the SFF).

That's what Chottokomaru says (on the forum in the link given by DJ-VAN), so I guess it includes everyone, not only 1 guy as BJ says.

ask for persmission please or don't distribute it.

Title: Good Bye
Post by: Survivor_2k on February 24, 2004, 03:20:08 am
It would like to fire me to all in this topic.  From today on, mugen left the world.  I not only stop to create, as I leave the community MUGEN. Although nor all to like me, created this topic for having done some friendships here, and having admiration for others.
I want to leave clearly that, from today on all my creations are the free one to make use, to make what to want (sprites/codes).

I learned much thing in this community, but without a doubt the greater of them was the value of the friendship.  Four years of friendships, some quarrels..mas was very rewarding.

I wait that they continue strong with its creations and creativity.  The MUGEN does not leave to die.

Good bye, my friends.

About all my works...you can use whatever you want, but contact me first because I use many things from other creators (with permission, for sure).

http://bmt.mgbr.net

Since I got some problems with bad use of my works, my works aren't open source anymore. You can ask for usage though.

All of his stuff as seen here:

His work (Lifebars) is available here (http://www.streetmugen.com/lifebars.php), with his permission.

EDIT:Illusionista, all that stuff on the misc page of BMT except the pallette editor (meaning, the sound and spark packs by The Immortal, primarily)...those open source also?
Title: Sprite packs....
Post by: recruta42 on March 04, 2004, 12:05:01 am
Well...I did many sprite packs for myself and the comunity to use them following some terms of conditions but don't have any place to host...

Is there anyone interested in hosting them?

The pack contains:

- A .sff file with animations
- A .act file with one pallet
- A directory with all the animations in .pcx format
- Pack disclaimer

The terms of use:

- Use it and abuse it
- Its not necessary to ask me or mail me asking permission to use this
pack since the purpose of it is to be FREE!!!
- Host it anywhere you want, send it to any friend you can, use it in any
project you wish, edit the way you like ...


NOT ALLOWED!!! :::

- Use this pack directly or indirectly to any FINANCIAL purpose!!!
- Once a char is made using this pack it turns totally public and
cannot be privated from the community.
- Distribut this pack without this txt file

Some realeases I did: Haohmaru, Ukyo, Hanzo, Tam tam and Jubei from SS4, Yoshitora from SS5, Heidern from Kof 98 and Wolverine from Marvel Vs Capcom...

If you guys want to check some of them you can direct download at:

http://mgns-hosp.vo6.net/heidern98rc.rar

http://mgns-hosp.vo6.net/yoshitorarc.rar

At the moment I dont have anywhere to place the wolverine sprite pack...so any volunteer is more than welcomed...

While playing EVO - Search for Eden, I've evolved a number of interesting creatures, some by myself using normal evolution, some with the aid of the various crystals in the game.  Here are some sprite rips of three of my favorites, which anybody who wants to can use as strikers (given the limits of EVO creatures, they would likely not make good characters by themselves).

Here they are:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/deathwish01b/mugen/EVO-Dragon-Spritesheet.gif
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/deathwish01b/mugen/EVOcreature1spritesheet.gif
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/deathwish01b/mugen/EVO-Bat-Spritesheet.gif

One more thing: Here's Mech Sonic from Sonic and Knuckles, also open for use

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/deathwish01b/mugen/sonic_knuckles_boss_sheet.gif


Admin edit: please refrain from posting so many big images in a way that'll force most people to have to load them - using links is preferable for these situations.

Member edit: Sorry.  Anywho, I re-did the Mech Sonic sheet (this time saved as a GIF) so whoever wants to should be able to make better use of it.  Also with more sprites (found out his gold mode does the buzzsaw-gimmick sometimes if you zoom past him as he's about to attack).

Member edit 2: Playing around in NESTen allowed me to get a bunch of screenshots of the first part of Charge Man's stage, which I assembled as one large graphic here: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/deathwish01b/mugen/Charge-Man-stage.gif

I don't know if the stage already exists in Mugen or not. --;

Of course i can't say all of them are free beacause somethings aren't my but you can ask me to ask the creator.
Pay attention when you use something because there's my friend's hosted stuff too,so before use the things that you need take a look on the author's name. Also put in your char or stage's read-me the stage or char that you got the stuff to avoid trouble.

Post by: Mike Werewolf on December 29, 2004, 05:17:51 pm
Here's my very little contribution.  :P

Conditions to use my work : to be credited as the original creator (like mentionned in the first post), plus : to give a credit to the companies which have created the sprites/sound, etc. (I think it's evident, but...)

I would appreciate to be informed if you use my work, but that's not a requirement.  ;)

NB : by using my work, I mean : copying, editing and even hosting it.

All of this isn't valid for people who are known to be unrespecful, like thieves or warehousers (else, that would be a way to "legalize" their acts, and that's not the purpose). For them, they must ask authorization to use my work.

All of this isn't also valid for works that aren't mine (I mean : those which are hosted on my site but were not made by me, like Greg's stages, for instance).

All my stuff could be found here : http://mike.mugen.free.fr

If you find my work good enough to be used ( :P ), here is what you could do :
* DhalsimSSF2 : everything (he's too bad anyway  :P)
* Cobra : Just the code (sprites were made by Butchy, so only him could tell what's allowed to do with them). Butchy comes sometimes on Fanatic Mugen's forum, but not often...
* KFM-Master : Everything BUT : this char is designed to be a little explained practical example for french people who start in chars creation, so I ask not to delete the comments in the files (CNS, mainly).

* Screenpacks (except SSF2) : everything could be used.
* SSF2 screenpack : like Cobra, I haven't made this alone, so I only could talk for what I've made : refer to the credit storyboard to see what I've done (mainly : Lifebars, fonts and storyboards). The other parts were made by ghOw, aka Puppet Master. Here's his website : http://www.aprog.fr.st but it's in a neglicted state since July 2003, so I don't think he would answer if you try to contact him...

* Stages : all could be used.

Hope it could help somebody.  :)

I do know it is not much for now from this newbie but:

Hanzo Kogeto original mugen character is free to use as long as credit remains within FPI (<---my) boundaries. Sprites can be modified/edited at choice as long as they aren't turned into offensive material (and I mean all offensive material)

http://www.furnation.com/foxphoenix/mugen.htm

Mail me if you need original sprites. :)

Note that this doesn't give property right on the character himself as hes been my intellectual copyright since his creation in 1992.

Mugen coding is basically Elecbyte's with modifications to fit my character and soon will coontain Winane's AI methods. This coding is open source as long as Elecbyte and Winane change their minds.

Edit: Here's something else I would like to add. While not really full open source, feel free to use the midis in my site. Of game characters I have some Sonic and Gouki songs. Other songs are either from commercial music or originals for my characters.

http://www.furnation.com/foxphoenix/midi.htm

I even recorded most of my originals into mp3. If you want to hear the real thing (you know how midi works do you?) just PM me.

Post by: SyNdicate on January 12, 2005, 06:47:02 pm
I guess I will join the open source sprites movement.

Better than late than never I guess,

Anyway,

I was basically going through the melty blood game looking for various effects that I may find useful, Then I decided, what the hell, Ill just rip everything that I can.

So insted of just extracting all character images for just a few things then delete the rest, I figured that some one out there may have a use for these various sprites.

So here they are, and they are free to the open public to and may be used however so.

Enjoy!

I'm launching today my new site. As TDS converted me to open source, I added a dedicated page for that in it.

It's a tiny start, a bit ridiculous by the way ;D with only one hi-res anim available, but eh ! the amount of available stuff will grow along the next month (at least : another anim + half of a char). ^_^


Permissions to use them are detailled on my site. (To sum up : users have to credit the original creator of the game. Then, crediting me for ripping would be appreciated. :))

New adress (shorter) : http://madahine.net/bdi/
btw the older adress works too.

EDIT : except because a fucking joke from my host the only url working now is :

http://madahine.phpnet.org/bdi/

Btw I released the 2nd super BG from rotd, both available in opensource page of the site.

I've got a question. If I uses somebody elses sprites with permission, and make a char, can I let the sprites of the char to be open source?

only if the original author agrees to make his sprites open source.

Post by: TaZaR on June 15, 2005, 12:51:02 pm
The problem is that, we have permission for a char for Project X from old times, to fully use it, and I'm editing this char's sprites, but the original author is no more online (left mugen scene), so I can't ask him, if I could make the sprites open source.

Make your edits open source. Or since it is easier to get full game rips now than long ago just use artmoney and rerip the sprites. Then you would have the "authority" to make them open source.
Title: Re: Creator's Permissions
Post by: TaZaR on June 16, 2005, 05:39:55 pm
Hmm, if I make the char with other author's sprites, than I later rip the sprites myself too, and release the sprites too with the char, can I make it open source?
Title: Re: Creator's Permissions
Post by: JustNoPoint on June 16, 2005, 05:49:22 pm
Only AFTER you rip the sprites.

Since you will have taken the time like the creator had done you won't have to replace the sprites with your own. To help others more when you release the newly ripped sprites (if you are using artmoney or some debug method) don't crop them. Release the sprites like I do as a pack and not cropped. This way people can have the axis. You may even discover you need to fix some axis in your creation. (depending on how the original author ripped the sprites)

Great, if I'll have time for it I'll rip the sprites later, and make my char into open source. Thanks for helping me out.  :)

Lady from laptop said:
you can add to your list (don't know if it's a list or anything) all I made, sprites, characters, coding, stages whatever open source.

see ya

I have no idea if Chloe meant for me to add this on my forum at NWM or not. But since I doubt I will update the SMF to revive NMWForum I'll hope she does not mind me announcing this here instead.

Would someone please update this "list" or make an Open source board to keep this stuff more organized. I already contacted Sepp to see if he wants access to my database to add anything NWM Forum may have had of value to this forum.

My vacation kinda changed my life so I won't be doing anything else anymore with mugen, hacking, ripping, etc. I guess I'll pack up my uncleaned rips and upload them as 7zip files.

The NWM.com and NWM.net will stay up untill april of 2006. Feel free to upload my spritepacks to your websites or whatever to preserve them on the net anytime before or after my space goes down.

There are different types of "free" and different types of "open source"*, and I see some people aren't clearly specifying which type they mean.  So as to reduce the chances of confusion in the future, I'd suggest to anyone who hasn't already clearly specified, please do so.  In particular, it'd be good to specify whether credit is required, whether hosting is allowed, whether (and how much) modification is allowed, whether commercial use is allowed, whether an attempt to notify you of use is required, and whether you'd like to "copyleft (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyleft)" your work (>:)).

If public domain isn't your thing, I'd suggest taking a look at the set of available Creative Commons licenses (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons_License), and either choose the one most to your liking, or use them as inspiration for coming up with your own terms of use.


*And I rather dislike the term "open source".  Technically, nearly all Mugen stuff that gets released is open source, even if it's not free (as in freedom) source.  =P

You can do anything you want with them.  Feel free.  The possibilities are limitless! :ninja:

Hah. I love the little descriptions you put on everything in the coding ^^

This will be a great character to play around with and slap coding here or there around for my WIP till I can grasp it better.

Plus now I am going to have to think of things to type next to each [state] just so I can further steal from you :P

Thanks again for both however. :)

Post by: Warner on July 19, 2006, 06:24:05 am
Hi, i want to confirm something in that list.

Not only Homero y Kenshin.
you can use the sprites from all my chars.

Kenshin
Shishio
Homero
Krusty
Leela
Fred Flinstone
mr. Incredible
Elastigirl

etc. ... and you can make enterely new chars with them, even u can modified all the sprites as well.
my only condition is : if anyone use one of my chars to make a new one, he has to share his new version of the char, with all the community.
if u think to use one of my chars to create a private char, don't tell to anybody  :-X
so if u post any changes, you must to share  it.

also if you modified one of my chars, drawing more sprites if it needed, when you share the final result, i could help to retouch the new edited sprites, of course if u let me do that  ;D

I think the Idea is to see more chars, or better chars, to have fun with Mugen for so much time  ;P

No. You need permission only if you release it. Btw, just a suggestion: this thread's okay with it, but generally if the last post in a thread is a few months old and you haven't got much to add to it, best not to post in it.
