Talk:No Rest for the Living

Footage?
Well, there is sure as heck no footage on the MSXBox site, that is for certain. Is the link random, perchance? 82.181.94.185 08:11, February 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * There was footage, and I was even able to download it. Without using any trick, downloading it was one of the options available, and since the embedded video player refused to work, that's what I did. I'd gladfully upload it somewhere, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea. If they pulled it out, then maybe they want it to be pulled out, for whatever reasons. If the wiki admins are okay with it, I will; otherwise I won't. --Gez 12:15, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, sure thing. Maybe it does not reflect the final product or summit, and that is why they pulled it? In such a case, it may actually be worth saving. Just saying. 82.181.94.185 19:13, February 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the double comment, I clicked "Save page" instead of "Preview"... Anyhow, if it is an ad or a push (which it apparently and obviously is) I can not for the life of me understand why a company would not want their product to be pushed or advertised. So I would not expect any cease-and-desists from either Bethesda or id. But sure, if you feel you need permission from the admins, then yeah. Screenies would be fine, though. Fair use and that. 82.181.94.185 19:19, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

Playing on PC
Will this tutorial maybe spawn problems regarding copyright issues?--Cybdmn 09:54, May 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * I would presume extracting it yourself (thou following the tutorial) should be ok downloading the extracted wad on the other hand should be a copyright issue.93.197.233.45 14:09, May 27, 2010 (UTC)


 *  [IANAL]  Technically it is legal to publish instructions like this (assuming the individual utility programs are not illegal, by violating a software patent or something).  The general disclaimer means that an end-user cannot hold us responsible for their legal problems, but nothing protects us from direct action by a game publisher.  (Are Xbox games covered by the BSA legislation, as well?  Not sure.)


 * Because the Xbox is a current, active platform, I personally would feel slightly better if we just linked to another site with the instructions, rather than having our own copy. That's just my opinion, however, and I know I have some fringe views on copyright issues.    Ryan W 19:36, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

MAPINFO
There is no need, that the MAPINFO should defint sky, cause this episode just uses the default sky for the first 9 maps in Doom II.--Cybdmn 19:37, May 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Depending on the port, MAPINFO definition are not cumulative; if you redefine a level, anything not specified is simply missing, rather than borrowed from the previously-defined level. I know EE's EMAPINFO syntax is cumulative, but the Hexen/Vavoom/ZDoom ones are not. --Gez 20:15, May 27, 2010 (UTC)
