[MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX (DISCONTINUED)
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
*groans* i should have seen that one it seems so much like something I'd come up with to mess with my family
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
Can someone please make a complete downloadable version that works with 0.12.19?
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
Just a heads-up to everyone else: Chrome may stop you from downloading the mod. Just had that happen to me.
Edit: Oh, didn't realize the mod was still out of date. My bad.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
I have 0.12.20 and it does not support it.
I play with bob's mod new version and w/o this mod, it will be almost impossible

Try greenhouses mod:

It's good for wood only but very useful and doesn't add lags with many of them.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
I don't really care about being able to farm wood. It's all the other fun stuff in Treefarm that I'd like to play with. I haven't played with it yet, but I like the idea of there being more things to build, more techs to invent, more stuff to do.orzelek wrote:Try greenhouses mod:

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX

and for the new 13.x steam release

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
you can do it for your own install pretty easily.
You would need to download the mod, then extract its files and copy those files to the mods folder (same place you would put the zip normally). Then you need to open control.lua with a text editor, and go through and replace the entries which start with 'game.onxxxx', with 'script.onxxxx'
game.on_init becomes script.on_init, game.on_event becomes script.on_event, etc.
Hope that helps!
Unfortunately, the CC-BY-NC-ND license TreeFarm is released under prohibits sharing a modified version of it, so I cant just give you a working version.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
It's actually not that straightfoward, treefarm uses some removed API calls, like on_save. The complicated nature of the code is why a fixed version is hard to come by.Blu3wolf wrote:you can do it for your own install pretty easily.

Ouch, I didn't realize that was the license for this mod. That sucks. TreeFarm dies with the author then. Licenses matter.Blu3wolf wrote: Unfortunately, the CC-BY-NC-ND license TreeFarm is released under prohibits sharing a modified version of it, so I cant just give you a working version.

I'm by no means an expert of licensing stuff, but I have read the definition of the CC BY-NC-ND 4.0, and all the examples linked from this page, and the two parts I have put in red seem contradictory :
Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.
NonCommercial — You may not use the material for commercial purposes.
NoDerivatives — If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you may not distribute the modified material.
From the example here : https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/B ... d_slightly
It seems possible to modify "slightly" without breaking the license rules. What is the limit of slightly ? Honestly, I don't know. Is a search and replace because of a change in the game's API syntax a "slight" change, or a "derivative work" ?
Can someone who has a great understanding of the licensing things give us his insight ?

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
Taken at face value, as long as zero creativity is involved, it is not a derivative work.An adaptation is a work based on one or more pre-existing works. What constitutes an adaptation depends on applicable law, however translating a work from one language to another or creating a film version of a novel are generally considered adaptations.
In order for an adaptation to be protected by copyright, most national laws require the creator of the adaptation to add original expression to the pre-existing work.
This would be subject to interpretation of wherever the case would be heard however, as some countries are much more inclusive than others in what constitutes adding original expression.
In general, I would say that *only* updating a mod to maintain it's exact functions, as originally released, would not infringe.
If such functions cannot be maintained without losing the original functions, or other functions added, then it would be an infringing use to release the updated work.
Those points aside, I would argue that distributing a file diff also would not infringe, so long as the modified file was only used privately, as private-use adaptations generally don't fall under the ND right either.
In either case, I think this is going to require a dev to make a ruling on how strictly they want the ND right treated here, due to the different interpretations applied internationally.
(Of what I've read, the EU is generally a little less strict about ND than the US.)
Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
The attribution portion of the license mentions the requirements for making changes, because most CC licenses allow you to modify the work (in fact, so does this one) and also to distribute that modified work (this one does not).
While a lawyer may be able to bend the law in court, moreso depending on which country they are in, I am not a lawyer. The license prohibits distribution of a derivative work (which an update is), so I am choosing not to share the updated version I have.
I havent actually done anything with it yet, other than load into a game successfully. It is quite possible that if it depends on other calls, it may not work anyway. The extent of my testing of it so far was to see if I could launch factorio and start a new game (which I could). Its really secondary to what I was doing, as I was working on a mod concept which would depend on TreeFarm being installed - so I needed Treefarm to not stop Factorio from running. I probably dont need it to actually work, to test my mod concept. Just being installed should be sufficient for now.
It should be noted that CC licenses are discourage from being used for software, by Creative Commons. Its primarily intended for other works. The GPL is an example of a license that is designed for software, but they do not have a version which is like the CC-BY-NC-ND, because they are committed to software which users are free to modify as they need.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX
Hey folks, long time no see.
I'm sure I own you this
I apologize for my abrupt disappearance. I have no good reasons why I did it, honestly I don't have any at all. But I cant change it anymore.
I also want thank everyone for the support, the feedback and critics over the last couple of years.
But let's get to (the most important) official stuff:
I hereby declare the mod free4all. Do whatever you want to do with the mod whenever and whereever.
Again, I'm sorry for the last few month...
P.S. If there are any successors or updated versions of this mod, I would be more than happy to put links to them in the OP.

You can't actually declare a license to be free for all, but Creative Commons has a license that is close, "Public Domain Dedication"

Maybe change the original post to reflect that?

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX (DISCONTINUED)
Well, you can, and a WTFPL does just that. This is a lot more vague than even a WTFPL though, so it wouldnt hurt to improve it.
saying you can do whatever you want with the mod, whenever and wherever, is the opposite of a lack of license (i.e., ARR). In any event its good enough for me.
Under the terms posted above (doing whatever you want with it) I am publishing a very slightly modified Treefarm Lite and Treefarm AC, which have had their game events changed to script events, to match changes in Factorio since 0.12.11. I am releasing this content under the GPLv2 - although do note that this does not in any way affect your ability to do whatever you want with the original treefarm mods posted by drs9999 above.
Hope these come in handy for someone.

Ill just be updating new versions in the thread here: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... 44&t=19124 rather than making additional posts in this thread.

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Treefarm REDUX (DISCONTINUED)
This mod imho has always been one of the very best mods for factorio ever made.
It's really sad that DRS has stopped working on it.
But there's no need in saying "sorry", DRS You didn't owe anybody to keep working on it, you never had to put time into this and everything you've done here for the community is highly appreciated, trust me! So thank you once again for the mod you've made and i hope you'll do at least as good in real life as you've done here on forums.
