I don't get it, the ToS gets changed and the devs then pick and choose what we can and cannot use... Kinda pointless changing the ToS if everyone can then still modify files anyway, even if the files are not doing harm customers should not be allowed to modify game files.. no matter what.

Guy you need to undertsand that it may happen that whatever anti cheat tool cna hook up on altered soundfiles and trigger a flag. For your own safety do juts NOT alter such stuff not allowed. Even if it's cool. And also altering soundfiles (in general) could even be used for cheating various stuff. So its better not to make "gray" zone definitions and straight out forbid them all.

Thats quite a reasonable decisions even if we may not like it.

Just to play devils advocate here. Russ tweet is not the same thing as it being on to use the modpack. He was asked if he outlawed it. He said he did not. That is not the same thing as it being allowed. What is or is not allowed may not be up to him or it may be a delegated responsibility.

Like I said. Devils advocate. Its probably ok to use the alternate sounds. Just be careful making assumptions when legalese is involved.

The code of conduct doesn't seem to actually cover it. It talks about...
  • ‘Injecting’ third-party files that may not directly modify game files.
If I understand the usual use of the word 'Injecting' then it doesn't apply to the sound mod. "Injection is a technique where code is injected inside another process."

The sound mod doesn't inject, it's just a .pak file.

Well then, I will just remove them for safety. Not really funny to get banned for using simple sound files.

Also, if the sound mod does qualify as a hack, then everyone that has posted in this thread has violated the code of conduct just by posting here.

The following actions are strictly forbidden:

  • Discussing the use of hacks, scripts, or cheats.
