Speaking of minecraft modding, Flowerchild was also one of those idiots who insisted on using adfly for all the download links to their mods, a site full of malware advertisements, so they could make a fraction of penny after thousands of people download their mod.

He's also the creep who made the No More Wolves mod, if memory serves. Hell, he was what killed my last lingering enjoyment for the game. Such a pathetic, creepy person.

FronzelNeekburm posted:The issue was that the modding community had been working pro bono for years, so it was no big deal if someone said, "Hey, can I include your sword/armor/titcrabs in my collection?" But when those people turned around and started charging for things they hadn't developed, and especially since the Steam system didn't have any way to divvy up the profits, "modding resource" creators suddenly started questioning whether that made sense. Pretty much this. The community had a pretty good thing going on wrt/using other people's assets until Valve and Bethesda came along and threw a gigantic poo poo-covered wrench into it.

My favorite Flowerchild story is the one where he declared war against Technic and then he and his mod became irrelevant and Technic paved the way for the legitimization of easy-to-acquire mod packs.

Luckily it's mostly the modders that are uptight shitbabies. When a few of them took their ball and went home after the paid mods thing, they came crawling back pretty quickly when they realized if they were going to hide their mods, people weren't going to listen to their opinions anymore.

He did this against the rising tide of Mod packs and Player-adjustable configs while doubling down on his strange Wolf-torture and animal BDSM shticks, ensuring that he offered the most unappealing choice on all fronts.

Mystic Mongol posted:See, by saying a portal to the nether has to be exactly ten obsidian blocks, instead of ten or more obsidian blocks, you've created a more sophisticated game. A player could collect more of the difficult to obtain material, and make a bigger gate than normal, but then the gameplay experience for that player wouldn't be exactly the same as any other player's. That would be something a filthy casual would do. What, you can't make smaller portals, just larger ones? That's like the only reasonable objection I can think of.

Yeah, ole' dinnerbone decided that players should be allowed to make bigger portals to hell if they want to, but even after the change a portal has to be at least two blocks wide and three blocks high. The only way it's "easier" to make a portal now is if you don't remember what shape a portal has to be, you can just throw down any ole' rectangle instead of looking it up on the wiki.

Tumblr of scotch posted:He did the exact same thing when he started modding Kerbal Space Program, too, even going so far as to revamp the tech tree in a manner that made it so there was one and exactly one "correct" way of progressing, so narrowly-defined that if you did things in any other way, unlocked techs or visited planets in any other order than the one he decreed, you were basically screwed and had to restart because there wouldn't be enough science available to unlock what you need. You forgot the one-sided rows he had with the devs when they wouldn't listen to his suggestions. (He would ban you for making suggestions for his mods on his own forums)

He also absolutely hated Hohmann Transfer Orbits for some reason, (For those that don't know, Hohmann Transfer Orbits are one the most efficient methods of traveling between bodies, and KSP values efficiency) so he nerfed Solar Power into oblivion and made all of the batteries ridiculously heavy to try and force you into making inefficient direct transfers instead. Scott Manley did a video on it in case you want a taste of the madness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZ1HCK_beIg

That reminds me of the Space Engineers modder that got obsessive about Solar Panels being far too efficient because the game was clearly set in Earth's asteroid belt (pre-Planets) and thus wouldn't get as much power as being on Earth due to the increased distance from the Sun.  He maintained this argument even when a Solar Panel Engineer got in on the discussion and told him how incorrect he was due to rising efficiency in current designs and the like. Solar Panels in the game already produce mere kW of power, barely enough to keep the lights and a few thrusters on, so it's not like they're all too useful to start with.

Not to be anal ( ) but that tail looks like it's coming out from the Coccyx, which would make the placement anatomically correct on a person if they had a tail.

Honestly the worst you can really point out about it is maybe the boobplating, and even then it's not obscene GG-cups or something, I guess. I wouldn't quite call it practical, but it certainly at least looks like ceremonial armor.

This ranks extremely low on the scale of awful mods, but I will never understand people who insist on making their games look like poo poo with ENB/Reshade presets. Did you ever think to yourself, "Mass Effect is a cool game but man, I wish I could make it look more like someone's filming a TV screen on a low-quality cellphone camera"? Well, good news because now you can!
