Title: [OQ+] Aardappel's maps
Post by: fromhell on May 02, 2008, 11:20:28 PM
Aardappel has .map sources of his maps on his site (http://wouter.fov120.com/maps/index.html), and in IRC many years ago while 'adopting' them for OA early on (0.0.5) he told me they're GPL, in a PM. The zip file's text says 'educational use' however. This can be confusing for some as it would bring up a lot of "[citation needed] you violator" accusations. He should like reupload the archive with a COPYING in there.

Now i'm returning to those maps and i've souped them up with Freedoom textures and his supposedly public domain 'i don't care even if i don't get credit even' texture pack, and they're looking good :)

You need to get the license clarified before doing too much work on them.

Will these maps just be placeholders, or an integral part (if so, do you plan to remove the rest of his maps from OA) ??

People yell at me if I remove any map from OA so I don't know. They DO look alot better and more suited for oqplus though
