I wouldn't say that. Sure, many DMCA reports i did thanks to "The Tool" where from china and russia, but the most reports (you woudn't believe it) where actually from france... But that's not the topic right here, so let's get back to it: Thanks to the hard work of OPTiX, Dscha and Arkensor we can soon seach not only for reuploaded PBOs, but also for content that is inside a PBO, like ripped models and such. This means more possibilities for us right holders, but also more work (sadly). And speaking of more work, some modders (including me) recived a mail from Valve to limit our reports to 25 a day. Since the release of "The Tool" it seems that Valve can't handle the ammount of reports anymore (yes, we broke steam ^^). Sure, some may say fuck that and for valve to employ more ppl on the department. But i suggest to take it slow and let them realize for real that there is a huge problem on the rise, or even pretty existent. Hopefully Steam AND Bohemia Interactive take the latest events and do something good with it. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warden_1 1070 Posted May 24, 2017 If Bohemia doesn't seriously consider BattlEye and by extension steam ID bans for repeat offenders then this will continue to be a problem. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eggbeast 3684 Posted June 9, 2017 can't wait, thanks for making this available. we're about to do our first trawl for private unsung uploads, based on some of our pbo's i'm hosting in a private space there. Assume that will work to locate any uploads? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think there is something wrong.^^ EM from benson got reuploaded about 20 times when I checked some weeks ago. Now it's only 2 times. I don't think that Valve just delete tons of items. How can they know who the original author is or who got permission etc. Etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bnae 1431 Posted June 23, 2017 @bloodwyn1756 You might be right but it did find all my other uploads that are using same items. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rydygier 1317 Posted June 23, 2017 Personally I have no problem with reuploading my stuff, neither expecting, anyone would try, it's not that kind of stuff, but was curious and wanted to try. Yet I found not search box nor magic button. I have "Home" and "How does it work" also "Support" but besides that I can only register/log in, which I'm reluctant to do for some reason. Is this required to search? Why actually? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
das attorney 858 Posted June 23, 2017 Quote Jackson☯ 6 hours ago I believe you should implement a body armor mod that more realistically details the Improved Outer Tactical Vest. I believe mods like RHS cannot fully capture the idea of what the vest is and what it is used for. Plus, I've seen for too long vests that do not carry the proper amount of magazine packages on it's MOLLE webbing. If i were a soldier and i were to do a deployment, I am sure i would take at minimum 14 magazines with me. I believe what you should do is make a mod where the vest is a single empty piece and the backpack adds on MOLLE pouches and MOLLE attached packs. lol at top current comment on his steam page... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kremator 1065 Posted June 23, 2017 14 magazines? Better hope you aren't sprinting into battle with that. It is bad enough just sprinting 500m with just webbing firing downrange. I couldn't hit a barn door at 100m after that! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think that Valve just delete tons of items. How can they know who the original author is or who got permission etc. Etc. Please note that whenever you update your mod, each file that you changed will have a different hash resulting in less results for older reuploads, since they still contain old version of that pbo, but not the newest one. I will change the system today to keep track of hashes across versions so that, even after an update, you can still find older versions of your mod. Regarding Em: I don't know how many pbos the mod contains at the moment, but a just created scan brought up 8 reuploads, only of the paa image though. I'll look into as to whether this is a system error. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
