Yeah, I wouldn't take it down as it has 54k people. Suppose it still has some gimmicks like the frazzz material too.

Yeah, but if I take it down some random person is just gonna reupload it, I'd rather have this here so I can at least link the better one in the description

This mod really is just redundant. The new remastered version is by far the best, it has improved balance, easy of use and is developed by us both. Or was, neither of us have worked on it for years. But it's the most functional version of this mod there is.

This mod doesn't have cheap adamantium, and only materials from old well defended. I would say you should have no problems using remastered well defended for coop games after the adamantium balance tweak
AlexD Mar 1, 2020 @ 7:34am 
Atleast that is what I think the idea is
AlexD Mar 1, 2020 @ 7:34am 
This mod is for playing on a co-op map like battleships, use the remastered one for other uses :D

so first WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED HERE?? who created the mod and who will continue it?
second: what s the best mod now ? remastert ?, coop edit? dafuq?
mellow.die  [author] Feb 11, 2020 @ 5:16am 
Yay the story has a happy ending :D
Waterpig Feb 11, 2020 @ 2:18am 
Looking forward to it.
Ellie Feb 10, 2020 @ 11:56pm 
It's similar but much more accessible. It also features the unique materials more expanded on; a whole category for energy making ones, for instance.
Ellie Feb 10, 2020 @ 11:55pm 
Sorry, upload* hasn't been public yet.
Ellie Feb 10, 2020 @ 11:55pm 
How about I reupload Well Defended Remastered?
mellow.die  [author] Feb 10, 2020 @ 4:33pm 
Yeah, please
AlexD Feb 10, 2020 @ 3:27pm 
@Anchovy you should just reupload well defended your self and be done with it, just so you can get this over with.
AlexD Feb 10, 2020 @ 3:25pm 
This is all so stupid.
mellow.die  [author] Feb 10, 2020 @ 1:00pm 
@Anchovy Also that's a good idea until y'know, ya deleted the original
mellow.die  [author] Feb 10, 2020 @ 12:57pm 
Just because you think your mod is stupid, unnecessary, and pointless doesn't mean it isn't fun for many people. Personally the mod definitely has its flaws sure, but me and a ton of other people (this mod is sitting at just above 9k subscribers) clearly find the mod fun. If you don't like the quality of the mod, why didn't you remove some of the reskins, keep the core features (Thallium, Adamantium, Rhodium, Platinum, Aluminium) and add in some of the stuff from extra materials (camo doors and armor) instead of removing all of what made your mod fun and special in a boring new version and then delete the old version off of the workshop because you "think its pointless" and when people call you out for it, you insult them or tell them to fuck off.
Ellie Feb 10, 2020 @ 3:15am 
In fact, you could have just made this mod higher priority than Well Defended, and then used your mod to make changes to it. That would be fine. It's no plagiarism, just you making a balance changing mod. Imagine making a small mod to make one of Tanya's weapons work differently. No separate Tanya's Mod clone required.
Ellie Feb 10, 2020 @ 3:14am 
And I would fully support his decision in that case. The mod was stupid, unnecessary and pointless, not to mention inaccessible and hard to use. I did a 2 year game design course at level 3. So that quality of mod from me is frankly disgusting.
Ellie Feb 10, 2020 @ 3:11am 
I think you'll find BeeMan will take it down. He doesn't approve of the mod too much.
Ellie Feb 10, 2020 @ 3:10am 
As said in my recent Extra Materials comments, yes just because I took it down doesn't then give you free reign over it.
Waterpig Feb 8, 2020 @ 1:38am 
you took screenschots of your chats under extra materials mod, I would think youll notice it there
mellow.die  [author] Feb 7, 2020 @ 6:48pm 
@alexc96161 Modding is a long and tedious process in which I have no experience in. Even if it would have a high payoff, (a personally customizable well defended alternative).
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 6:47pm 
Well I gtg, but here is the link to the Forts discord if ya want to join. https://discord.gg/8rWkAqP
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 6:44pm 
Like making completely new mods, from scratch?
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 6:44pm 
Quick question are you interested in modding?
mellow.die  [author] Feb 7, 2020 @ 6:43pm 
@alexc96161 We'll see what happens. I hope the devs realize that the original Well Defended is worth keeping up, even if Anchovy doesn't want to do it.
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 6:43pm 
If you want something like well defended, make it yourself. :)
Then you can do all the changes you want and not worry about anything like this.
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 6:38pm 
But anyways, why not start making your own mod? If you have not already check out the modding guide, and join the Official Forts discord adn ask questions there! :)
mellow.die  [author] Feb 7, 2020 @ 5:44pm 
@alexc96161 Unfortunately, the tangible evidence is gone. It was in a comment under "Well Defended Balanced", which was the first one I uploaded, but got taken down, since I had no idea I was actually supposed to credit the creator. (It was just supposed to be a small edit for me and my friends and I didn't think much of it until after it was removed).

BUT even if Anchovy did not give me permission, it wouldn't matter at this point since he deleted the original, so there is no basis to remove either of my mods at the moment. The only reason I'll remove Well Defended (not "balanced" version) is if Anchovy decides he will reinstate the original. Then I will happily remove it.

I will not take down my "balanced" version, because the way I interpret it Anchovy gave me permission in his comment, and only tried to revoke it afterward. Also he could have gotten this one removed like the first one, and presumable tried to, but probably couldn't because I didn't do anything wrong.
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 5:25pm 
Because what I see is that Anchovy said that he did not give permission.
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 5:22pm 
Really? Prove that Anchovy said that.
mellow.die  [author] Feb 7, 2020 @ 5:20pm 
@alexc96161 Are you stupid? The original mod doesn't exist so it doesn't have a mod description, so that point is invalid. And Anchovy technically did give me permission. He took this one down originally and said if I wanted to upload it I needed to give him credit, which I then did, which granted me permission.
BubbyB Feb 7, 2020 @ 5:20pm 
alexc96161 where did you get the description that says that? the original well defended does not exist.
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 5:14pm 
"I did not copy another persons mod" that is incorrect, you did take the mod from Anchovy, is the mod still up? No, but did you copy the old version? Yes. As well here are the rules on copieing from the devs: " 1: Modders must indicate in the description of their mod if their mod is allowed to be copied, or if they require permission first.

2: Modders wanting to copy parts of an existing mod must seek the authors permission first. If permission is given, the original author must be credited in the description and a link to the original mod provided." In the discription of well defended it said you must ask permission. And while you did credit the mod author you DID NOT get permission from the mod author, and even was said to NOT take the mod. This is in CLEAR volation of the rules. And I will request the devs to take this mod down.
mellow.die  [author] Feb 7, 2020 @ 3:37pm 
@alexc96161 I did not copy another persons mod or claim ownership, therefore I am in no violation of steam or the games rules. And I have properly credited Anchovy as the creator (which technically speaking I didn't have to do after Anchovy took the original mod down). I don't need his permission to reupload it after he took it down, it would be different if the original Well Defended was still up. I'm simply making this mod available to the Forts community again since so many people, (including myself) love the mod in its original state and it sucks that Anchovy threw a temper-tantrum and took it down off of the workshop.
AlexD Feb 7, 2020 @ 1:42pm 
This makes me really mad, you copy someones elses mod WITHOUT thier permission, going agenst steams & the games rules. I will ask the devs to take this down if you do not yourself.
mellow.die  [author] Feb 7, 2020 @ 8:41am 
@Waterpig Maybe if he got that stick out of his ass then he would be more understanding
Waterpig Feb 7, 2020 @ 7:02am 
@Josh502 Anchovy has many problems understanding the point of mods
mellow.die  [author] Feb 6, 2020 @ 6:31pm 
@Anchovy THATS NOT THE POINT OF MODS
Ellie Feb 6, 2020 @ 2:26am 
What a shame. You have to actually play the game as it was intended. First world problems.
Waterpig Jan 29, 2020 @ 3:12am 
@The2Lied Anchovy (the creator) removed it, saying adamantium was useless, most objects are reskins and uploaded a "better version" in which he removed all the specials and 90% of everything else. He is also a big cunt to his (before) fans.
The2lied Dec 31, 2019 @ 11:45pm 
@[EPN]patrick62040 do you know why? i love that mod!
Dumb Cat Dec 31, 2019 @ 10:06pm 
well defended got deleted for some reason
It's my duty to please dat booty Nov 22, 2019 @ 6:51pm 
xmaschovy lil bitch
Ellie Sep 24, 2019 @ 4:23am 
Also, I made the mod extra materials if you want a better version. And why even bother nerfing the cost of adamantium? At 55k metal it will be impossible to even use.
Ellie Sep 24, 2019 @ 4:21am 
1. You still never asked for permission.
2. There is already a rebalanced version. Search Not So Well Defended
3. I'm making a remastered version. No there's no real need for this anways. It won't have adamantium in it.

Consider this mod removed.
BubbyB Sep 7, 2019 @ 6:18pm 
this is just what i was looking for
