Paid Mods & BeamMP/KissMP

i've a 24/7 running public server which contains a lot of free releases and some out of the repo
these are stored on the server it self. I wanted to give people who bought mods from me the opportunity to use them on the server as well
so i created a zip which contains a vehicles folder with info.json / main.jbeam / default.png of the car and uploaded this small file on my server.
We tested that multiple times and it worked fine for all when the mod it self was located in 0.28/vehicles/cardirectory i hoped that
it would also work when the mod is zipped in the mods folder but it doesn't same when it is unzipped in the mods folder.

maybe someone has another way to get that working without having mods unzipped anywhere or stored directly on the server

 

Looks like you forgot how i once told you

 

thank you

 

Sorry to bump but I wanted to say sorry for my old comments. They were stupid and wrong and I just wanna apologise. Thank you

 

All you paid mod bootlickers can cope there is no harm in hosting private servers with paid mods. It’s the same as any other games with DLC’s, as long as one player or the host owns the DLC anyone else can either see, interact with, or use freely. Have fun.

Don't know why people get so butthurt because of paid mods on private servers. Doesn't cause that much impact.

 

1) 1.5 year bump
2) 3 years since my message
3) I know and talk to a few of the quality paid modders out there (none of the ModLand meshslap trash) and they put an incredible amount of work into making mods that are actually worth buying.
4) There is harm in hosting a server with paid mods because it is extraordinarily easy to pirate a copy of the mod for yourself from the files that the server downloads onto your PC. Copying the mod for yourself is instant piracy.

He literally explains how you're not supposed to host the mod. If you do it the way that he explains, it guarantees that everyone who can use the mod in X server already had a copy of the mod on their PCs.

 

The server's private. No one except those allowed can use the mods there and I don't think it will cause that much harm to the point they have to ban the guy's server

 

I think paid mods should be not a thing most of the people selling these mods don't have LLC's or LTD's therefore there making profit of BeamNG with no Corporation!

 

that's like saying you need to have an LLC or LTD to make a lemonade stand in your neighbourhood

 

Please be aware good sir that most users partaking in this thread are mere children and have little to no understanding of company structure. All debates within the thread appear non-serious and express at best surface level understandings.
Nothing will ever become of them.

Those in favour only hold such opinions to lure and 'impress' the add-on authors they so fawn over; a hopeless cry for attention and social gain. Once they mature only then will they realise the grift of charging for substandard product that may cease to function upon any increment of version. All standard content provided with the simulator is superior in every sense and cannot be mimicked or replaced.

 

Damn you should be a writer

 

You technically do lol therefore there selling online products it's a invasion and against many TOS

The only thing it would come down to is having a LLC or LTD for protection!

I absolutely understand that but am I wrong about what I'm saying

 

Different people live in different jurisdictions, and may not necessarily need a company to sell data online. In Germany, you may need a trade license, but you do not need a full company below a certain threshold of profit.
This is the same or similar in many different European countries.

Even in the US, you are allowed to sell without a company, and don't even need to register anywhere to be a sole proprietor. Obviously you must comply with tax laws.
There's nothing inherently illegal about profiting without a corporation in Europe or the US, and BeamNG cannot prevent you from doing so by selling modifications if you ensure that the content is cleared of license restrictions (i.e. you can't just include BeamNG's intellectual property).
I'm really not sure what you're getting at with this argument.

By US laws you don't. You might need a permit, and might need to get extra inspections and certifications to ensure food quality, but you do not need a company.
