Just so we're all on the same page:
Given that fan shards depend on the MOULa data set and cannot redistribute files.
Given that new clothing updates are published on MOULa without warning from Cyan.
Given that bugs in the client cause all clothing files to be loaded at runtime, regardless of listing in the .age file.
WHEN a fan has published clothing on MOULa it is understood said fan gives explicit permission to all shards to host said clothing item.
This memo does not apply to age content.
MOULa Clothing Content: Memo of Understanding
Re: MOULa Clothing Content: Memo of Understanding
Sorry if the above is a little terse. I just really need everyone to be clear on what MOULa clothing updates mean for fan shards

I think adding this to various Wiki sites would get greater exposure...

Re: MOULa Clothing Content: Memo of Understanding
Am I understanding correctly that by “host” you mean “allow players to use”, not necessarily “keep and distribute the files”? Because, while the latter would be my normal understanding of the word “host”, I don’t see any requirement for that, seeing as we can’t do that with other Cyan files either.
Re: MOULa Clothing Content: Memo of Understanding
I see "host" as the latter -- Cyan's files are a special case IMO due to their legal obligations.

Re: MOULa Clothing Content: Memo of Understanding
OK, then I don’t understand what having that permission gains us (but that’s okay, my understanding is not required).
Re: MOULa Clothing Content: Memo of Understanding
If someone brings clothing from MOULa onto a shard that the other players do not have, BOOM. They crash.
