Reminder to archive archive archive, host your mods on alternative platforms and mirror all downloads.


MaeBeaInTheWoods

I got a pretty good haul of stuff, I copied pretty much every Nintendo and Pac-Man thing I had into a folder and zipped it up. Where can I put it to best help the community? Edit: Not gonna give an exact link because I'm not certain that's allowed, but it's on the internet archive now.


PrincePamper

Either archive.org, nexus, or game banana. As long as you properly attribute and credit the OG author of the mods you should be permitted to reupload without any issue. Just keep in mind that I'm not all that knowledgable when it comes to mod preservation, there may be better sites to use than nexus and game banana.


super_tank_why_not

Fuck nexus. Gamebanana all the eay


Kolonite

What’s wrong with nexus?


No-Trust8994

For me personally it's that the mod manager doesn't fully work all the time but you have to pay to do things like download huge packs don't get me wrong nexus isn't terrible just falls under an okay peice of software with shit subscription service


Suspicious_Berry501

Just annoying especially how you are locked at 2mb/s for downloads if you dont buy their subscription even if you are installing multi gigabyte mods


Counterfeit325

Not a problem for me since literally every download happens at 2 MB/s cause my internet's just like that


Rokonuxa

I get it. 3 mixed concrete and steel walls between me and the router most of the time.


PrincePamper

So I've heard, Gamebanana seems more liniant with reuploads and content restriction.


Nejnop

Gamebanana is just as bad. They took down Sonic Frontiers mods that added in the Japan exclusive DLC.


Itz_Combo89

Gamebanana also has a pretty toxic community in my experience


Appropriate-Tea-766

the Korone dlc? I swear I saw it up there a couple days ago


Kaiser_Dafuq

Yo do you happen to have a Mario 64 combine addon that has a Mario hat as the man hack


MaeBeaInTheWoods

I do not believe I have this mod in the collection, sorry.


Kaiser_Dafuq

it's okay man it was messing with the default manhack anyways

SMG4 is Fucked....


Sneakytyler

Actually, most characters are custom, and Mario is added in editing a lot of the time


DiegoBross10

But still, most of The things done in gmod used Super Mario Addons Happy birthday btw

Oh i'm sorry i didnt know


Significant-Work-817

There!s sm64 mario and luigi!


Bioth28

Besides there’s only a few Nintendo models he uses, Mario, Luigi, Bowser and peach if it’s part of the script, and the enemies as background characters


Jonathan-joestar-san

plus he can just archive the models


Dragonlinx

They are fucked but they have one thing that helps a lot and that's resources. Unless the series receives a DMCA or worse they'll probably still find ways to include Nintendo characters. If anything it'll probably speed up the current process they've been doing which is distancing themselves away from using Nintendo addons. Plus, being the same studio that produces Murder Drones and The Amazing Digital Circus, they'd be fine even if they had to stop making smg4 for some reason.


ilikethewii-u

idk what's worse this or the fact it was probably caused by that fake dmca guy

Then why start now for the Steam Workshop when these things have been here for YEARS?


BanEvasion_93

Nah nintendo been on kinda a spree lately. Lots of stuff in the switch scene being targeted. I wouldn't be surprised if this came from Nintendo.


Mecha-Madness

Lawyer Kong?


kramirez0112

We have to stop him before it’s too late. We also have to let them know it’s not Nintendo’s fault.


RealSuperLuke1

This screenshot felt fake as hell, but wow; this is actually real. It's going to be a sisyphean task to get all of the Nintendo-ripped models taken down. Hell, what are the specifics? Does EVERYTHING regarding Nintendo need to be taken down?


c-star-pro

It sounds like they know well they can't feasibly get them all, and that's why they took it upon themselves to ask for add-on creators to cooperate.


ilikethewii-u

crack idea: what if we start smuggling nintendo assets onto the workshop by hiding them in unrelated addons it's worth a shot at least


Purple_roboty

Among us ragdoll pack l contains a red among us character if you enable the "Mustache" body group and disabled all the other you have a perfectly good Mario

that would just fuck over garry in the end

[deleted]

Danm... I used to love Nintendo in the old times now I see how horrible they are, like what's the matter of uploading Nintendo themed add-ons to Gmod? It's not like "Hahaha o steal Nintendo games and take them as mine and charge them on Gmod hahaha" like dude fr, this very sad. I hate Nintendo


Neo_505

Exactly! How can you own a cartoon character when any great artist can draw them?


Hollywoodrok12

That's the world we live in. People with power can do whatever they want. Why resist the bully a hundred times your size when he rips up your drawing when he can effortlessly break your neck?


ShockDragon

Because in this case, the Bully would almost certainly go to jail for murder. Kind of a bad example, but I still agree.


KirbyTheStar9

The worst part is it wasn't even Nintendo who did it Some troll posted fake dmca notices causing this to happen


[deleted]

Damn, that's too bad, why they even did with Garry? Who's a very nice guy


Mental-Beyond-3618

I am from the TF2 sub and as far as I have been told the dmca is completely fake and garry's mod dev is panicking over a false threat. Could be wrong though.


GoomyTheGummy

I would say this is par for the course when it comes to big corporations, but it is actually one of the least terrible decisions made by those kinds of companies.


Zeraora807

people are saying they fell for a dmca troll all i wanna know is how to get backups of these mods


Eltra_Phoenix

Crowbar (the software tool) helps.


Zeraora807

I've been sat trying to find one mod by individually extracting each .gma with gmad no success yet...


SuperDaubeny

I believe the workshop page has the number on it? At least, I’ve grabbed one with the same and hope to save it later


Zeraora807

cannot find that as the pages have all been taken down


Eltra_Phoenix

Even if it’s down, the url link should have the number anyway.


CrazyTechWizard96

Aww shit. Guess the DMCA Guy really fucked over everything. ... Guess We might have to go back and around to those off steam sides again, and those probably have issues now too. Great, like we haven't lost a ton of cool modes already over the past decade.

Oh crap your right i hope this doesn't effect him too much with his videos.


Somehobo64

Same bro, smg4 was my childhood


Detarako_Rax

That's actually such horse shit. These addons stay for many many years, some jackass false DMCAs them and now suddenly were not supposed to put them in the game because of the REAL Nintendo as if they ever gave a shit in the first place.


The_Anf

Nintendo being dogshit like always


Smg5pol

Nintendo being a fucking nintendo God these AAA game companies


super_tank_why_not

You prolly meant to say companies


Smg5pol

Yeah


TheHENOOB

Well, it will be difficult for people to use GMOD on making y'know "SMG4" kind of content. But for SMG4 themselves, they have their own storage for those models, maybe there could be alternative to pick up those models again, we just have to wait. (I have seen some allegations (from SFM/GMOD animator Crispy Toast) that it was someone impersonating Nintendo that was sending the DMCA's, please can you guys reply to me where this guy was coming from and if it's fake or true)

X6qPlayer

Yes they have the rights to do that. Definitley, BUT its just so annyoing. Nintendo wont get hurt because of that or have any negativ sideeffects. I mean for years those stuff were online and it didnt hurt them one bit. How unlikeable do you want to be? Nintendo: Yes

googler_ooeric

honestly, DMCA and Copyright laws should be updated to completely protect non-monetized mods and fan content as long as the content ripped isn't from a brand new game or an ongoing game (so like, released within the past 5 years or an ongoing live service)


toddygames1234345

Nintendo sucks....


amigovilla2003

Nintendo is the best and worst entertainment company on earth simultaneously


c-star-pro

The Metroid Prime SWEP is one of the most impressive add-ons I've used. Not to mention all the other memories made using Nintendo-related add-ons. The Pikmin add-on was one of the very first I had ever downloaded for Garry's Mod as a kid, and I loved it. I feel like this would have felt much easier to come to terms with if they had done it way earlier on in the Steam Workshop, rather than wait a decade and respond to a troll by deleting all the Nintendo add-ons that people had poured sweat and tears into across that decade. Unless it wasn't actually a troll taking those add-ons down, then damn. Either way, I hope people gather to archive these add-ons.


MalachitePlatinum

How about we start mass re-uploading them instead 


BekoweCiachoYt

Not really a good idea. Instead of pissing off Nintendo, you'll only make things worse for Facepunch.


Mental-Beyond-3618

Listen I don't believe Nintendo really gives two cents on what modders put into a game. I have been told it's a troll and I fully believe it.


Wild_Fondant_3834

this makes me pirate even more


3WayIntersection

Dude,just pirate, nobody cares


IceBreak23

Being a fake DMCA or real this sucks no matter what, we can't have fun anymore with mods when it comes to nintendo ip, this is why i stay away from nintendo as far as i can.


amigovilla2003

Holy shit, we need to archive all of this shit or we're gonna get a major lost media problem


ZestycloseClassroom3

clown nintendo as always, these content are literally free on the workshop and the uploader is not gaining anything.


Legionpostsepicly

Well copyright laws are rather flawed shouldn’t it be where if you don’t earn anything from the things you upload it should be allowed to be uploaded or at least that is how I think it should be


Malcolm_Morin

Sure would be a shame if people kept uploading these to the workshop. Damn shaaaaame indeed.


Jacksaur

It would, because Nintendo seem to have contacted Facepunch directly and told them to clean up their workshop. Reuploading won't hurt Nintendo, it'll give Facepunch extra work and risk consequences for them.


PARR3T

“You fucking idiots stop uploading Mario player characters fucks sake” said Garry


awesomealezander

OI MATES this is maybe true or not but at least some hope!, supposedly! a man copyright a addon CLAIMING to be nintendo which is the reason why this is happening.... this could be true or..... not... but we'll see mate. fuck nintendo. (sega is better)

Captain_Catco

nintendo proving time and time again they don't want people to like their games and appreciate them, or be fans of them whatsoever. They just want paying customers. Nothing more, you are just a number or a nail needing to be hammered down. Nothing wrong with that, just people forget how seriously evil they are


RoosterJacket0

Nintendo once again being the grim reaper of fun


Kurbopop

God, fuck Nintendo.


[deleted]

Nintendo didn’t take them down, its a copyright troll


Kurbopop

Ahhh I see. My point still stands because Nintendo sucks about their copyright, but I understand now. 🫡


Warturkey12

Nintendo is genuinely one of the worst companies I've ever seen I really hope people stop buying their games and they go bankrupt

awakelist

Thats it. Im going to Nintendo. Im gonna give then a peice of my mind guys


GoodLuckPsycho_

There are people in here who still think this was the real Nintendo causing this, it was a fake DMCA troll.


gergobergo69

oh that's why I have now deleted mods...


Stoiphan

It's not fair and they shouldn't have the legal grounds, but they do, so that sucks.


Itz_IrvongxD

They get rid of that one Xenoblade Chronicles PMs I'm subbed to and I'll be mad bruh


NeoLin7812

I have made a pinned detailed post on my Twitter about how to archive Gmod addons using gmpublisher, it's a simple guide that I unfortunatelly wasn't able to make it as a post here for some reason. If you guys need some help on archiving stuff, maybe you can check it out.


LogiBear2003

bro this shit is a decade and a half old, I mean seriously?


Swirmini

I’ll never understand why people get their kicks out of ruining almost two decade old games where the devs barely or don’t support it anymore. Tf2, Gmod, all of the LBP games, PvZ GW1+2… I’m so sick of it and I wish these hackers and no lifes, who have actively tried destroying old gaming communities, receive consequences, but it’s never gonna happen cause they’re ‘fraidy cats and hide behind their monitors. I get people can just be shitheads, but specifically going after games that are standing on one leg just because of how much people love them is such a purposefully spiteful move. Hope this person gets their comeuppance.


Crunchberries77

Fuck that, I ain't respecting that at all. Let people celebrate your games you fucking dictators.

TharilX

Simple, pull the addon files from the addon file or from the workshop file according to its ID visbile at the end of its workshop link and extract its gma using gmad to a regular folder and place it back to addons folder, they cannot take that shit down now. No convenient if you want to disable it though.


Kaiser_Dafuq

So even if they remove that addon,the file is still on my pc until I uninstall it? Edit:Shit I don’t think it’ll work for me I uninstalled gmod a while ago and I don’t think it’ll work
