If the PM doesn't work, then post something like this:
"Seven, I would like to speak to you in private regarding a model in your mod. Can you please clear your mailbox?"
If he doesn't, contact a site admin. You can find all of them in the Moderator List to the left side of the screen. They are very good with responding and dealing with problems.
Seriously, this is straight-up common sense and basic decency. The kind of thing your mom is supposed to teach you when you're about 5.
@bfg - making a lost soul model
I've got a few too many projects going on right now unfortunately. I will be more than happy to donate any models I finish in the future to the SMC however, if Seven would like them. But I think you're idea of using the AD lost soul isn't bad, I'm sure Sock wouldn't mind.

NOW, ON TO MORE IMPORTANT STUFF THAT ACTUALLY MATTERS:
Seven, I just remembered there's a Lost Soul in the very much non-copyrighted Arcane Dimensions mod. Maybe you could use this model instead? Oh, and maybe you should think about cleaning your mailbox?Last edited by Mugwump; 06-21-2017, 10:46 PM.

Sorry, PM's do not work. Been there done that. People just ignore them so there is no public proof that you contacted them to not use them.

seriously, thats litterally FREE promotion for their game!
how is that not benificial to the creator of a game?
.
also... does it actually 'harm' the original creator in any way to have their model used in a mod?
no, no it doesnt. the mod-creator isnt making any money off of the asset as its a 100% free mod
.
also, seven always provides credits for every single asset used in his mod.
there are a shit-load of text-files included in the SMC's rar to give credits to anyone who's assets have been used
.
also, if you really wanted to adress seven directly you shouldve IM-ed seven.
but you didnt, you chose to do this publically and you attempted to make one of the biggest contributors to this site seem bad.
thats only going to work out negatively for you, as you mightve already noticed.
It doesn't matter who he credited and I can guarantee he did not credit the model coming from Dark Salvation. If he gave credit to a person, it isn't possible that he knows who actually made the asset unless he worked with Mangled Eye Studios directly because there is no mention publicly of who created which specific assets to the game.
Even if he did or would have credited Dark Salvation as to where the model originated from, he still did not ask permission to use it. So we look bad for pointing it out but it doesn't look bad for someone using things without permission. OK.
Let's see if Seven or anyone one of you defending asset theft contacts Mangled Eye Studios and asks if doing something like this is OK.
Lesson: Don't use what you did not create and if you want to use something you did not create, you ask.

Like I said before, Seven was addressed directly, nobody else. If you replied to make it your business, that is your doing when only one person was being addressed. You can complain about someone's bad attitude if you like but imagine that a person would probably never have a bad attitude if people didn't steal their content. Right? Right!
If you don't like the fact that a person or studio mentions publicly about their usage of a studios created assets within a project they created, like, support or play, then maybe they shouldn't do that?
Learn to respect other devs work and their wishes to not use it and move on. I see the community still has not learned how to do that all these years later.
Is anyone trying to kill or ruin a mod? Of course not. Just don't use assets that don't belong to you. It really is that simple.
I'm sorry but taking assets from someone else's game is in no way beneficial to the original creators of said assets.

@Dutch How would you feel like modelling a nice unlicensed Lost Soul model (or adapting one to Quake) to replace mister MangledEye's "property"?

This has nothing to do with your claim, it's entirely about your public perception. You're a business, right? You want to sell your game and make money, right? Your conduct in this thread, justified or not, has cost you already. You're burning bridges you haven't even built yet by pissing off hundreds of potential customers (this is the biggest thread at quakeone, everyone will see it). I wouldn't buy your game because of your attitude: I give money to companies I either like or feel neutral about. I guarantee I'm not alone. On top of that, everyone who won't buy your game won't recommend it to their friends, or worse, will recommend they DON'T buy it. "Good news travels fast, bad news travels faster."
If you plan to get anywhere as a business, you'd better get your act together.
Take your issues elsewhere please!

No, sorry, I'm not buying that. If you wanted to address Seven directly, and no one else, we wouldn't be having this conversation. It would have been a PM from the get-go. You chose to try and make a public example of him, and now it's backfiring on you.
Regarding your actions, you're not seeing the big picture, so let me spell it out:

now you know where it came from and shouldn't be using it.
pick up Photoshop, 3DSMAx, Blender or similar, learn how to use them and create assets that you want in your game instead of appropriating content directly made by other people and their games. If other people can do it, nothing is stopping you from doing it too.
