Hello!

Quick question. I have a edited/remixed version of the default pack. Is this allowed?

You have to have permission from the OP of that mod/resource or texture pack/etc. and provide proof at the TOP of the submission

AND


You have to edit a significant amount of it otherwise it is not allowed

To get the textures for the resourcepack, you copy the assets and all that. From there I edit the textures in GIMP, so when I upload it the default textures are still in the files (Undedited, as I haven't yet touched them.)

Is this technically against the rules, even if I don't claim these textures as my own?


Yes, it breaks our rules.

Magicman88999This is kind of confusing.
Basically, the rules are saying that you must have more than 50% of the pack to be able to post it, but you're saying that you need to have 100% self-created content?


I believe this means that you must have at least 50 percent of the total resource pack completed before posting it. That 50 percent of completion has to be 100 percent created by you. The other 50 percent has that you haven't worked on yourself cannot include work that is not yours when posting it.

At least this is what I get from it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong?

You can still create 50% of the textures and have that 50% be 100% your own creation/not include anything that isn't yours.

AzieWe only allow the upload of content you created 100% yourself. If any of the textures in your pack contain parts of any texture you didn't create, including but not limited to default Minecraft textures, then you cannot post it as a submission.

You can't upload a complete texture pack if you've only changed 50% of it, you just upload the 50% you did change.
You have to change at least 50% of the total to upload anything.

If you don't want to do anymore additions to the texture pack, you can just post it in the forums.

"The rule of thumb for resource packs is that they must change at least 50% of all blocks or items, or all of the sounds or user interface elements, to be posted. "
-Rules

You have to change a LOT. 50% is the bare minimum.

Nope, reread this section.

What if the artist released their content under CC that allowed modifications?

Refrence: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

See above. Unless the situation is that the original artist released their pack for continuation by another user, completely unmodified textures made by someone else entirely can't be posted.

Short answer: No.

Long answer: We only allow the upload of content you created 100% yourself. If any of the textures in your pack contain parts of any texture you didn't create, including but not limited to default Minecraft textures, then you cannot post it as a submission. Furthermore, placeholders are not allowed. Please do not include any texture you didn't create in place of textures you have not yet created for your texture pack. Our rules cover all this pretty extensively.

If you're looking to post it on PMC, you're not allowed to just edit a few textures and leave the rest alone. You need to make most to all of the textures to avoid moderation.

Technically all resource packs are edits of the default textures so I'd assume yes.
