DMCA warns against game modding
Today I received a warning about my GTA Imports(more specically Johnny/Niko, Luis/Niko, and the Stripper cops). They want me to stop all my work and mediafire deleted all my mods. They are also aware of the sites where they were posted(monitoring?). Just wanted to tell yall aboot this and I prey it does not spread. Going after modders now fo real? I am going to wait for a while before I up anything(just might be tuts now every PS3 modder should just do tuts). They do not want their files shared( they called my mods widespread when there are 3800 dl's in total)Sorry guys. Do not use MEDIAFIRE ,use fileserve as it does not comply to DMCA standard's. Alll of this w/ Sony's New agreement , when will it end?

Thanks for the warning. I would like to get to the bottom of the story, and see what the hell is going on.

My friends and I have been discussing this and we have come up w/ a solution. Add .txt to change the hash (which is what flagged this) and change the name of the zip to coolsexypics.exe or some ish like that. Today has been crazy for me yo. nativesith, Ps3 freedom fighter. They can take my mods but they will never take my freedom! Puttin the THEFT in GTA and now inspiring ways to upload without worries like American DMCA Flags.

**** yeah, but I don't think you should be posting it here though, as they are most likely monitoring this site.

Was it making Luis look like a str8 up crackhead or turning the cops into prostitutes that did it? DMCA be like "Hell no son!" Still think it stupid. Importing got me flagged

Did you have backup copies, or where to uploads your backup copies?

Just got Johnny/NIKO,Luis/NIKO,the imported cars and cops along with the common. But there is lot it there(the most modded game for gta iv in fact). But really all those mods are up here and I will have nothing but time standing in my way.

Going in to game development next year and now I am re thinking it all. Seems like the industry is full of money hungry suits ready who are against people who try anything new. How the hell can they tell me what I can and can not do with my ps3 ish. Stop all modifications!?
