So the only “clear” instance is where he makes a common misspelling? BasePlates?
How else is he supposed to do it? Textures have the same properties, are you really claiming intellectual ownership of the Texture properties? Or is it because he spelled ColorR? Isn’t that a more readable way to do it?
So you want him to make textures apparent with another UI that’s not displaying the texture being used in the baseplate? You’re claiming that the studio window provided by the plugin API with images on a grid is intellectual property owned by you?
I don’t think this is fair to say since you’re basing the main argument off a misspelling in a singular line in a 300+ line plugin, while you could claim “Well but he did game:GetService(“HttpService”):JSONEncode() instead of using a service variable!” that’s not really an uncommon thing to see around in code, I do thinks like that
If you look at all the ways you can make this it’s really curious that the way that he has made it is just way too similar.
Also I don’t think it’s a spelling mistake if you genuinely look at the line it can’t be a coincidence.
Alright can you name a few? Genuinely curious here, as far as I know that’s the most easy and straightforward way to do it considering the person who made this plugin is not a full fledged programmer.
Can’t be a coincidence? You looked through his code for minutes, saw one single real resemblance in one line and that cannot be a coincidence?
Grid-based texture pickers have been a feature in a massive amount of other programs, ColorR/G/B is an extremely easy to think variable name, “BasePlate” is a very common mistake to do . You’re taking extremely obvious paths, mistakes, and common design patterns, then acting like that’s enough proof to call out someone for stealing code.
Basically everything in my earlier post points to the fact that the code must have been cloned.
and especially some of the variables.
also this plugin is quite old, if i were to code it today it would be allot different.
thats why its clear to me it has allot of inspiration from my code, because i can recognise the horrible coding i did back in the day
I can affirm that whilst the code isn’t exact, there are a few typos within the code itself that do point towards looking at the code and recreating it in their own style. It’s not 100% copying, but you can see that they at least looked at the code and followed how it was made in order to produce their product’s finalization.
Potential Conclusion
I feel it would make sense for this to be cleared up whether or not it was done intentionally. Maybe that means the price of the plugin is equal to the original. However, please work this out directly with each other to keep our community clean.
