Map / Script
Distributing / using a ripped map / script needs permission from the original author first.
He needs to be aware of all changes and where the file will be hosted. (+ has to agree obviously )
Proper credit with direct link to the original map / script
So there are currently some discussions about "ripping" maps.
This includes ripping a map from a .ff file from ANY call of duty game AND ripping/converting a map from another engine to Call of Duty World at War.
I also had to read over and over again that someone stole this script or this gun from someone else.
Tool:
Any ripping tool is disallowed on the site.

So there is currently some discussion going on in the UGX Chat Room and forum about "ripping" maps from Source games and taking scripts from people's IWDs in the community.

I have a question regarding this.
There is a custom map made from another engine which I would like to port into WaW. What do I do regarding permission if I want to ask the original creator (of that custom map) about it, but he has been inactive for a long time?
Can't I just list him in the credits AND give a link to his original custom map without having to ask him?
