The Every-Skin, Skin Pack
« on: January 01, 2011, 12:57:59 AM »
This is just here to help out the people who don't want to see a crapton of Megamen, and can't be bothered searching out every skin.

This here pack contains every skin I had as of 12-31-10 (Dec. 31st 2010).
I suppose it's a New Year's present.

If I've missed any, oh well, I guess. I highly doubt I'm missing any that weren't on the forums or the wikia as of then.

Download Link removed as per the message of Ivory.

Happy New Year!~ :3

(There are no Mappacks, Music WADs, or anything random in there. Just skins)

We've had many people try this. And I'll tell you the same thing I'll tell anyone else.

You need permission to redistribute other peoples skins. I really don't want to re-go into the details for this.

Ah, alright.

No way I could get permission from EVERYBODY... But oh well.

Defeats the purpose of releasing skins if you don't want them to be redistributed, though. Some get lost along the way.. But meh. Rules be rules.

It's not actually a rule. It's just an ethical issue.

Ha, I guess you could call this a spiritual descendant of the Ultimate Skin Pack.

Anyway, feel free to use all of my skins, even though I only made two.
This is the link to my topic.

sincerely? I think that if a skin is posted in this topic and it is functional, it MUST be allowed into a Skin Pack, but the uploader of the skin pack should give credit to the authors of the skins or claim no ownerships over them.

I hope this pack gets to live on unlike the rest. Updates would be great now and then~

And feel free to use my skins too, I don't mind people distributing my work as long as they don't claim it as their own.

Seeing how we're all playing the same game and we more often than not play with eachother, I agree with the above posts. If people didn't want their skins to get shared around, why release them?

I'd say you can just put in the popular skins everyone is using, and ditch the official ones, it'd be really helpful. And of course, credit is easier to give.

Im tired of Megaman.

We can't ditch the official ones! We can't ditch Megaman! Sure, you may be tired of him, but this is His Game! What're we gonna do without him? We can't keep the name Megaman 8bit Deathmatch without Megaman. And don't even think about Cat Planet Deathmatch.

I meant ditch them because almost everyone browses the official site and has probaly already gotten them. But like all the Robot Masters and the ones already packed will already be there, and I use MM every once and a while. I'm just saying that most people already have it, but you can put them in there.

You forget, there are quite a few Megaman Purists in this community would be absolutely outraged if Non-Megaman skins started replacing Megaman Ones.


As also your missing some points. Skin Control. When the author is the one releasing the skin, the skin is coming in from one source. If the skin needs fixing in any way, word gets about and people go and upload.
Now what happens when you get the skin from a pack with no indication of where it came from?
1) You'll be scratchign your heading and searching around for the update.
2) Or you'll have the old version of the skin being downloaded by anyone who downloads it, and if the skin pack doesn't get updated(because maintaining those things is a chore) then the author has made an update that no one is using!

It's the same reason why I only keep my MM8BDM Maps and mods distributed in my own thread. If I need to make an update(which is rather likely) It's way more easier to control if I'm the only source of the material. If I have to deal with packs and such. That means I need to talk to those people, give them the updated files. of course, why update something so big for a single(or a few) file? It would most likely sit about collecting dust until enough content is accumulated to warrant a release.

I hope you can understand the frustration on my end of having to deal with all of that just to ensure people actually have the right version.
