2 years ago I have reviewed all of the sounds submitted and we have decided not to accept them at this time for the following reasons:
We were told, or you implied that you would be making the sounds to avoid copyright because your last set of sounds were all ripped directly from games. It was found through looking at the audio's data that at least one file was plagiarized:
The rest of the audio files submitted had completely erased metadata so I cannot validate if they're direct rips or not. They're being denied too to play it safe. Adding on to 1., you didn't communicate with us much about this so we don't know if these are audio files that were taken from someone and edited or not. Please remember to communicate with us better when you're submitting a request like this.
This all being said, some of the sounds were very nice and I would be interested in using them had I known where they came from and verified if they were fair use or not. I wish you had handled this situation a little better because there could've been some nice sounds in the mod.
Thank you again for taking the time to compile these (even if it took 3 seconds) but again, we will not be accepting it at this time. If you believe this is wrong you can message me on Discord. Thanks.
Hello. We talked about this in Discord but I wanted to let you know the following:
The guns that you want to add sounds for already have sounds. We are not at this time willing to give each gun in the mod their own unique sound as that would require exponentially increasing the file size for the mod. We want to save this space for new weapon additions.
These sounds may be used for other weapons or replace current sounds. Me or another team member will talk to you about some compromise once we get there.
I will review these sounds at some point soon. I cannot guarantee it will be today, as of writing, but it will be soon.
Thank you for your contribution!
