Update the mod of someone else

Post by Hermios »

Hi
I made an update for a mod developed by someone else. I try to contacted him to update his mod but he didn't answer. And I can't upload on my own, because it has the same name as his. Finally, I don't want to change the name, I picked up 90% of his job, I don't feel to take it as my own. Any suggestion?
Thanks

Niko

I've seen quite a few people update abandoned mods - just upload it as new mod to the mod portal, but with links to the original and author to make it obvious that you're not the original developer.
Better forum search for modders: Enclose your search term in quotes, eg. "font_color" or "custom-input" - it prevents the forum search from splitting on hypens and underscores, resulting in much more accurate results.
