Wait that isn't right.

When stealing isn't buying...

Ehh...

I'm not going to take this seriously until I can see all communications in full context. I like to make my own judgements on these things.

Maybe their projects and all supporting assets should be forked preventively. This to preserve the code base. Just in case.

Maybe the accusing people should just make a statement that they distance them selves from whatever the creator has said. Instead of denying their users access to a plugin. Just thought.

Quoting: LoudTechie

Quoting: tfkLame. Don't they realize that archive.org is fighting for our right for free information. That probably includes them.

There're those for who freedom is a threat and those who view it as a weapon.
You can't host any sizable humanitarian effort without harming someone's power.
The mere fact that you're sizable is enough to get enemies(looters).
The mere fact that you're helping people is enough to take you down for some.

Well they're still bastards. :angry:

Hm. Ok. First download script. Hm. Licensed under the bsd 3 license. Ok. Ow. Binary encoded into script source. Ah. It's Innoextract. To extract Windoze installers.

Heh. They hook into lutris.net to get the available runners. Like dxvk or umu. They use it to get umu.

Hm. Support method. Support method. Etc. Etc.

Usage switches. How to use the script.

Unpack innoextract to tmp.

Check if umu is installed. If not download from lutris source.

Show dialog if no installer was specified.

Check file permissions.

Check for zoom guid. That's the game Id.

Set inno app ID.

Check if installer is for dlc.

Let user select path.

Show message if destination is not writable.

Some prefix validation.

Check destination is empty or not existent.

Write some stuff into c drive of prefix.

Write some stuff into prefix registry.

Launch installer.

Log file stuff during install.

Icons, Uninstaller etc.

That's basically it.

Sadly the group buying Nintendo games is bigger than the group who are voting with their wallets. :sad:

Frogs! Brilliant! Not really into multi-player but I really like this approach.

What I gather from the blog post is that the reaction to these findings is an irritated one instead of a proactive one. Like pulling your hand bag up to your nose and do like WHEEEEEEEEE! Like the old Reeves and Mortimer sketches. And then coming in with the fake frying pans. Also an old Reeves and Mortimer reference.

I wouldn't back a project merely for Linux support. It's too often used to get extra cash in to be dropped at first opportunity.

It's better to support a project because you are into a game idea.
