A while ago, due to constant harassment by Realism-Mod users enabled by its creator, I decided to update some of my mods with a minor addition to the license to restrict easy access for the harassers.

The users on this site seem to have no concept of what consent is and, with this predator-like mentality, began openly calling for the breach of the new addition.

The staff here even joined in and empowered this predatory behavior by providing bypasses to my wishes. On top of that, they refuse to remove the recent infringing mod (REALISM COMPATIBILITY FOR PETTAN’S M231) and even gave me a site warning over it. This protection of predatory behavior is unacceptable and completely biased.

Since it was Pride Month last month, out of respect for the staff, I decided to let it slip for a while, but now that it’s over, I have finally decided to make a public statement about this matter.

Before you go “muh open source license blah blah blah” or “blah blah in x game’s modding scene,” remember that eventually, your entitled behavior drove some of those creators to stop.

All I originally asked is for RM users to leave me alone, and they cannot simply honor a simple request. I don’t use that mod; I personally find it makes my experience worse, but some of you seem to take that opinion as an insult.

Is it that hard for some of you to respect the creator’s wishes?

I make mods for myself and only decide to share them here. You are not entitled to my labor.

is this why you have blocked access to downloading your mods?

I just noticed the drive access change.

Good. More power to Pettan.

I don’t think you understand how licenses or IP works at all. The patches don’t contain or distribute any of your files or code, no license in existence restricts someone from referencing an Id. Even if they were, note that changing the license is not retroactive, any previous uploads that were distributed under a different license are still subject to your previous license. In addition, licensing other people’s and BSG’s content like that doesn’t even make sense.

No one is “harassing you”, can you explain how someone making a compatibility patch that you can just ignore is harassment? Can you prove or show how this has affected you in a negative way, how people didn’t “leave you alone” beyond simply asking about Realism compatibility in comments time to time (all modders are asked about compatibility with other mods)? You can easily just ignore the patches and you’d never know they existed.

You’ve always been actively hostile towards me for some odd reason, attacking me and my work, which I just largely ignored. It seems that your hatred has spilled over to the point that the idea of someone writing some JSON to make our mods compatible pains you. I am sorry to say that in the real world you can’t control people using our mods together with licences, which seems to by why you took down the download links to your mods.

You are not the victim here, you’ve created your own drama for no rational reason. All you’re doing is bringing more negative attention to yourself. I’d advise simply just ignoring the patches like any adult would.

I told you to leave me alone multiple times. We even had this same conversation on discord.

Yet you don’t want to leave me alone. If this isn’t harassment I don’t know what is.

And your goons seem to have no concept of simple consent and respect for other people with the constant bickering about the compatibility patches and then going to openly violate my simple request to not make a compatibility patch and post it here. They also can’t help themselves and advertise their own bypasses in the comment sections.

I don’t know why you would foster this rapist-like mentality among your users. If there was an actual block feature on this site I would have used it but I can’t find it.

Please stop interacting with me in any capacity.

As long as you keep slandering me or other users on this site I will respond.

Every time I’ve interreacted with you in relation to this specific matter, it was in response to you claiming it’s against any license to make compatibility patches, or slandering me by claiming that I am “harassing” you.

I am not “harassing” you or getting “goons” to attack you. I do not have “goons”, they are random users with their own free will that I have not knowingly interacted with or directed to do anything.

You abused the system put in place that’s intended to declare other mods as incompatible out of spite. This caused people to comment on it. You declared that “You are not allowed to post a compatibility “patch” here on this site.” as if it’s against any rules or licensing, which is completely untrue, which caused others and I to comment. Now you’ve removed the download links to your mods, which brought more attention to yourself, and made these comments that are again full of untruths and slander, causing me to reply.

I hope you can see the pattern here, where all this “harassment” you claim to have experienced (in reality, a literal handful of comments, none of which were hateful or harassing) was a direct result of your actions. If you had simply ignored people making compatibility patches none of this would have happened, no one would have commented anything.

Outside of this I have barely if at all interacted with you, and I encourage anyone reading this to check all of Pettan’s threads on the various SPT-related discord servers and you will see no “harassment” by me or anyone else.

No one needs your consent to play with your mods and Realism mod, nor do they need consent to write a literal JSON file that’s a PATCH FOR REALISM MOD, to make it compatible with your or any other mods. It doesn’t touch or replace any of your files, it doesn’t include any of your code, it goes into a folder inside of Realism mod’s server module. You can’t make completely unhinged and irrational requests and then claim “harassment” or “predatory behaviour” (???) when people ignore said requests, especially when it includes mods that port BSG’s or other people’s IP/content.

Claiming that any of this is equivalent to fostering “rapist-like mentality” is completely unhinged and says a lot about you and nothing of me. Please show any evidence of me directing anyone to be an internet rapist and harass you or make patches for your mods specifically.

Not entirely sure how this is negative to you in any form. You could just ignore the patches being made. If anything it might help with less people asking you for a patch since other users making a patch will likely make more.

Ah man. I was looking forward to modding Tarkov again. All people had to do was play nice, now I can’t mod Tarkov with MFAC stuff (they’re my favorite). Thanks harassers.

thanks for making it impossible to redownload the mods i do need for my own mod list
all you had to do was leave them up

i couldn’t give half a fuck what your problem is or what the drama is even about
i dont even use realism nor do i like it.
all i see is you’ve made shit i and probably lots of other people need unavailable for no good reason. but i guess you care more about your imaginary harassers and their “”“predator-like mentality”““ than to keep providing a service to real people who actually use your shit.

ill tell you what a predator looks like, pettan. its someone who will deploy far more energy than is necessary to tell everyone how right they are when they know what they did is fucked up.

so, and, for your information, if you want to block someone, you go on their profile, you click the person-shaped icon, and you click “block”. there you go. use that feature, pettan. use it as much as you want.

end of the day, you’re a clown, and you’ll be a clown as long as your mods are privated, because only a clown will go to this much effort to be this much of an inconvenience for other people, especially people like me have to privately upload backups of your shit.

Leave the site then. Stop soap boxing and go somewhere else.

You certainly will not be missed.

This is quite possibly the most deluded and entitled BS I’ve ever seen on this site. You must live a terribly sheltered life to think you’ve been harassed and to equate anyone here to a rapist. That’s disgusting.

Any reasonable criticism you receive now is a consequence of your own actions and behaviour

Honestly you if you’re going to be losing hairs over people wanting patches for your mods should not be on the internet dude. Either take a break and come back and let the patches be or just leave the community.

Hi pettan, i would like to ask, since the removal of your mods, that i was hoping to use them for my SPT, where, us, users that do not use realism mods, can still get access to them ? do you have any discord or something like that where we can still get in touch with you or other ? i sent you also a DM on about that, on what i think, is your discord.

Your not a victim and comparing people to rapists because they just made a patch so more people can use your mods is disgusting. Grow up and be better

Hello Pettan.. I hope you’re doing well..

I really loved using your MFAC mods for SPT, and been using it for a while.. I left SPT for almost a year, and when i get back to play SPT 3.10, i see that your mod is gone or blocked / made private..

I hope you’re going to update your MFAC mods and make it available again.. SPT feels different without your mods.. I really appreciated your work.. I hope i can play SPT with your MFAC mods again.. Thank you so much Pettan..

I hope you’re reading this.. Whatever the problem is, i hope you can solve it and make peace with it.. Again, Thanks a lot.. Peace.. XD

Hey Pettan,

I was in a fika server and they had a MFAC PRD rifle that fired 7.62x54R. I can’t find that mod anywhere, did you make that? Is it still available?

Thanks

is there any useful guide to port old weapon mods to current SPT?

0 Likes
Pettan

I didn’t follow any guide but just reverse engineered what people have already done.
You should have a basic understanding of how the SPT database handles its items.
What you should be looking at the following folders within the SPT database itself
\Aki_Data\Server\database\locales\global (This is where you find the IDS to look up below)
\Aki_Data\Server\database\templates\items.json

\Aki_Data\Server\database\templates\handbook.json

\Aki_Data\Server\database\globals.json

\Aki_Data\Server\database\traders

These would be the bare minimum. Just remember most mods only interact with what they deem necessary when adding items.

Pettan, does any of your files add Caliber93x40mm to the game?

None of my 3.8.0 mods adds that caliber. I don’t remember ever adding that specific caliber from my previous publish work either.

Cheers to the ports, I am hoping you can port more of the stuff from oddba.cn since all I can really do is browse there. Really enjoying all of the ports you worked effortlessly on, thank you for your time.
