It's done when it's done. :devilish:
I could name a date, but shoot me if I would :cool:
Nahhhh... Name a firm date. No one here will give you shit or accuse you of milking if life jumped up and bit you in the ass and made you push a day or ten. NeverEverNeverEverEverEverNever! We all promise!:ROFLMAO:

Anyone who has followed the drama that some developers have had with their music licences knows that this is a big problem. You don't want your game grounded because some clown filed a DMCA claim.

A more or less reliable source will now shut down, or better yet, kill itself.

So today was about spending a lot of money on licences and making sure that nobody can give me any problems.

It would be nice if I could just concentrate on development, but no. I have to deal with this bullshit that costs me money and a whole day.



If anyone knows of any artists who do Steam advertising (capsules and trailers) professionally, please contact me!

Damn, I wanted to make a nice story, not some copyright or advertising bullshit...

BTT

Being 10 minutes late will trigger the "Milker, Milker!" crowd.

I'm mad enough to do all this, but a public release date appointment?
I'm neither a masochist, nor suicidal :ROFLMAO:

Well, I think the reason most get into trouble, is because they don't disclose the fact that the games the music is for are adult in nature. When the artists find out, trouble arises.

you could be 1 second late and they will get the pitchforks even if they get all the lewd scenes they want to see. But for real don't rush do it right don't want a situation like another game on here that had to rework parts of the game just to release on steam cause of music copyright issues.

Well, that first part IS development - just not production. ;):devilish: <ducks>

Yes, I'm a smart ass with a business degree that's been both a consultant an a company exec for most of the last 35 years. The groundwork sucks, but the rest of it can fall apart if that part isn't done well and as bullet-proof (legally) as possible.

Saw a guy from some place in Eastern Europe bitching the other day about "it's after midnight here - where is it" (or something like that) when it was still about 4pm in the Dev's time zone. Basically replied he should piss-off, where he lived didn't matter, and he was a pirate, so he mattered even less. Didn't get a reply, which was a little surprising given the type of person that typically posts such bullshit.

A CC 4.0 BY release is a CC 4.0 release.
Period.

If I have to take proof that it was released by CC by taking screenshots it's wrong, by CC definition.
But that happens when you use not reliable sources.

:rolleyes:

Next game will be different, but I'm not changing a few dozens tracks now.
Many have been licensed, if anyone has a problem with a CC release being used I'm happy to delete the tracks.

Well, there are a few that are generally clueless about time zones.
