Can i make a balance patch for this mod ?

Hello there, it was to know, i have made a patch for Samsara Extra Heroes to make it more balanced for deathmatch/TDM/Duel but i wanted know if i can make this "UnofficialSamsaraDmPatch" playable on doomseeker.....
I have put the "Credits" text file of the mod, in the patch.

I can't find any text file in the mod, or some readme on the internet....but i have asked to them, in case', if i can host it ! (like an unofficial patch)

I think, i need to improve some things again, not finished....

Samsara Extraheroes (with monstermixer) is a ton of fun in survival but it could be awesome too in Deathmatch !

Ah ok, thanks, anyway, when i will host it online if the devroom want, i can remove it from tspg-painkiller website.
Still working on it, there is a lot of weapons to nerf/change....especially the homing ones :x
I will make a topic about it, to see people's opinion.... :smile:

General rule of thumb is that you're allowed to make whatever add-on you want for any mod, just don't modify the core mod without permission from the author.

For the most part, nobody will give you shit for making an add-on, unless it's a bad add-on. In which case the issue is more the fact that it's bad, rather than that you made it.
If someone gets upset about the existence of add-ons, well, usually the problem is more with them than the add-on itself.

To add to that...

How to make a good addon: GvH: Legacy of Darkness (LoD)
How to make a bad addon: GvH: Tons of Classes/Dispersion.

Keep that in mind and you're fine.

Yeah, i see, it's just a patch to balance the mod for deathmatch, i have talked with them on fb, they wanted test the patch with me (but i wasnt online.....)

I have just kept the "Decorate" file with the "class" files, to modify it again in case.
I have added the "Credits.txt" file beside the "Decorate" file.

But again, if someday, they want it deleted or modified, i will do it. : >
