I'm not disagreeing with you, just clarifying my stance

"Take-Two has agreed that it generally will not take legal action against third-party projects involving Rockstar’s PC games that are single-player, non-commercial, and respect the intellectual property (IP) rights of third parties. This does not apply to (i) multiplayer or online services; (ii) tools, files, libraries, or functions that could be used to impact multiplayer or online services, or (iii) use or importation of other IP (including other Rockstar IP) in the project. " I'll bite, modding is okay but non commetcial as stated so yes as you said selling mods is out of line and illegal yet the devs act like it's their right to commercially profit from these things. They may argue that their assets are non gta (which is 100% codswallop) but it involves gta and as such commercial use of it would bite them in the ass were they to take the matter to court. Sadly TakeTwo might not give 2 shits if it doesnt directly involve them and in turn puts the gta mod community in a really worse place than it is now possibly causing an end to the free community/reasonable community. I fear these are the final days of the free mod community and we can see that happening over on 5mods where we either get crumbs of something, overused FH4 models or a useful script that gets slim to no support. Assetto Corsa mods are free to use as far as I'm concerned and they aren't hard to convert, it can take 2 hours minimum to complete a car and make it ready for use. That being said mods don't need to be paid if you arent paying for the raw material

Okay, call me crazy but isnt everything made for GTA Rockstar owned? Modifying or reselling any single piece of GTA is illegal but Rockstar and TakeTwo dont take legal action....well until the LibertyV and VIceCry mods were taken down right? Ever mod developer is committing illegal acts by proxy of being a modder. Now reselling these assets of gta (yes as long as it works in gta it holds gta assets) can warrant you a court case but again we gucci. Badblood wont win that court case and neither will the defendant man, you're more likely to get sued by TakeTwo/Rocktsar.

You good fam? lol
