About the Creator Policies List
The purpose of this page is to provide a quick reference guide to know what different sites and creators have as their redistribution policies.
This guide is designed for creators uploading to MTS2 - the "yes" and "no" means "yes, allowed for MTS2 uploads" or "no, not allowed for MTS2 uploads" only, assuming posting in accordance with MTS2 guidelines for uploads. If you are uploading to free sites other than MTS2, pay sites, or the Exchange, please make sure you double-check with the creator and look at their policies to see if uploading anywhere else is allowed, or different.
Please make sure you check the individual sites whose content you're using - this is a quick reference guide, not a detailed and complete listing. It is your responsibility to know the details of their full policies and follow them.
Key
Because this is a big list and there is limited room, certain abbreviations are used. Here is what all of the column headings and abbreviations used mean:
- Recolour: You may change/tweak their existing alphas, textures, and bump maps.
- Retexture: Make new textures, alphas, and bump maps for their meshes.
- N/A: Not applicable. Site doesn't offer that sort of content, or irrelevant because of other terms.
- Other: Any special, weird, or esoteric terms.
- UL Lots: May be included with lot uploads.
- UL Sims: May be included with sim uploads.
- w/Mesh: May upload the mesh along with your new recolour or retexture.
- w/Perm: With explicit permission. You must contact the creator and ask.
- w/Readme: Must include a readme file to upload the mesh.
- ? : Unclear or not stated. Consider this a "No" until more information is available.
