A Close Run Thing

[Herr Straße Laufer]

Maybe I over reacted and maybe not.......let me expalin it this way..........I don't care if someone uses my map file or OOB file feel free......if you make major changes just save them with a different name........as for my scenarios.......should you want to change them please write your own version..changing an existing scenario is like changing someones painting,poem,book etc.......no one will complain if you make your own....permanently changing an original is something else all together.

Earl,

You did not overreact.
In fact I thought everyone put out multiple reasons for not messing with an active, existing designer's scenarios, in a calm and reasonable manner.

Any mention of "heat" or overreaction is a heated overreaction to a simple set of standards that were expressed? Seems that some have a different perception? :smoke:

No one here is a Rembrandt or Picasso? But, there are mighty fine custom scenarios that should be excluded from "tampering", as I would not paint a mustache on the Mona Lisa. :chin:
I've modded some scenarios. I've used maps from existing scenarios, mostly to cover battlegrounds from early or later periods in a "flip" effect, ie. a 1941 battle had the field portrayed in a 1943 battle.
In each I have changed the name of the map file or made a change in the scenario name (but, without uploading to the dBASE if it is a simple mod of an existing scenario).

I think you make great points here. :thumbs_up:
