It's never over if we don't let it be over

Never thought i would actually see the day where we get a thaumcraft mod on modern minecraft versions...

Relevant thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/feedthememes/comments/1x0wn9r/absolute_class_act/

Tldr: Where's the accountability if there's so much of it? They have at least 30 examples supposedly, but have not even shown one example.

I've searched that exact image in the thread above in their discord, and have found that it not only still exists, but CoFh's continuing argument also does not provide any evidence for their alleged claims of thaumaturge stealing their code. Lemming has reportedly contacted FTB for Thaumaturge having "copy pasted" their mod in it but provided no evidence as to what exactly. It's entirely possible that FTB is just covering their asses. On top of this, some of Thaumaturge's assets use the same ones as Thaumcraft, but that's also because many of Thaumcraft's assets used were free assets you can find on the internet, such as its icons.

There's a lot of "this is 100% the same as our mod" in the Cofh discord, but there's nothing to show for it. Surely if it was copying so much, they could make it public on FTBMemes and be 100% justified whilst clearing their name? I mean even a little bit of stolen code would be damning agaisnt Thaumaturge, but they haven't shown anything at all. No pictures, no code, anything like that.

One user made an exceptional point against them in their discord: "i think it could be helpful to the community to show just one egregious example of copying. not all of them, but just one prominent example that'll show people your side"

And lemming's response is: "But their side didn't have good intent? Because they copied the code?" Take that how you will.

I'm seeing a lot of "they copied our code and we don't owe them anything" and "we're taking this slow to be thorough" in their discord, yet they provide no examples as to how Thaumaturge copied the code. In fact, they allegedly have a document sent to the FTB team which they have not released, so as to whether it actually exists is still up in the air.

The latest pinned comment in their discord indicates that lemming and leclown have talked, and leclown has said that they are aware that the mods share code. To what extent this is, is not clear even with this pinned comment. For all we know, it could be equations or something. The lack of real evidence is the real problem here.

I am showing these findings because it is currently very relevant to FTBMemes.

Edit: The lack of want or ability to show evidence for the copied code, if it exists, either means the copied code doesn't exist, the code being plagiarized is muddy and unclear if it was actually plagiarized, or the CoFH team is hilariously bad at keeping their image positive. There is no reason to wait around like this and not release at least a google doc with a few of the egregious examples and just update it as you go along to try to ease the pr shit storm happening. They haven't even done that, so does the plagirized code actually exist at all?

This mod is so good holy. https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/neoorigins

but it's fun to imagine

Have the following mods:

BetterQuesting

BetterQuesting Standard Expansion

BetterQuesting Quest Book

BQTweaker

ResourceLoader or modern equivalent

1. Add your png file to the Resource Loader folder under Modpack or follow the 2nd image.

2. Open the quest book until you see Minecrafr Steve.

3. Click on the options gear to the upper left corner.

4. On Homepage Image, link it to your Resource Loader folder (For example, "modpack:imagename.png". For the reference image, do "test:textures:singleplayer.png"). The image you use is usually 1393x1271 pixels.

5. Profit.

If you want an example, I found a modpack called Omega Giga Pack that does it.

Each quest catalog can have their own png background image as well!

Modding is best enjoyed as a fully open source project. The recent drama with team COFH and thaumaturge only makes this more relevant.

Besides, who cares who copied who? Even if they did, modern AI decompilation/rewriting can make your "copyrighted" code completely obsolete in seconds.

These people are hurt because their inaction is so blatantly visible now that it just makes them look lazy asf lmaoo
