if this happened realism in roblox would DIE pbr textures are already like minimum 3 decals for a single texture but then you find out that texture has some issues and it becomes 6 and so on…
Oh no! Please don’t tell me that they’re going to restrict other types of asset uploads. Because if they do. Then the platform will die!
Then the platform will die!
good tbh they dont deserve to live
I agree. If they do this to other asset types people are gonna start leaving the platform and then Roblox will make them come back but I will not let that happen to other asset privacy types like for audio there should be a feature like if you go over the limit you pay in Robux. It should be the same thing like the free badges update.
As a Developer, right now it is completely hard to start developing games. I have a feeling that players are going to be mad if this happens to all other assets. Well, let’s just hope that Roblox makes audio public again so that way we can start uploading audios
WHEN is a “later date”, it’s been a long while since this came out and there has been zero word on when this is being enabled.
Again, I don’t know when Roblox is going to make audio public again! It is likely that it might be permanent. I mean, Roblox said they were going to re-enable the ability to make audio public but I feel like that Roblox is lying. Plus many developers in this post are having problems with ROBLOX moderation.
This is still hard for me, but considering the circumstances, I totally understand. The team is doing a great job on making sfx public again as around 75% of my longer sfx are coming back and considering the size of the platform, that’s impressive, so thank you for keeping you word and for the team that is going through the audios. Also as a follow-up to my previous reply:
I wasn’t planning to reply to this topic, but do to the mass number of comments, I might as well. I’m upset, not mainly because of the audio changes, but rather the manner in which it was presented and the timing. The manner in which this was presented is what I am a bit upset with. I feel like the removal of user audio should be said in a straightforward manner without trying to hide the main reason behind the removal: copyright and moderation. It would still be difficult with the removal of …
This new post is straightforward and contains important for the community. Thank you!
Continuing the discussion from [Update] Changes to Asset Privacy for Audio:
So with the new audio granting permission feature, I can add games/universe IDs to the list to give audio access to those games, but is it not possible to revoke audio permissions at all?
Hypothetical Situation: I granted a Rocky Mountain Airways game audio permissions for a few audios, but let’s say for whatever reason I want to revoke those audio permissions but it just doesn’t let me do so, clearly seen in this screenshot.
The audio uploads need to be at least way more than 10 (a month just to upload 10 sounds i will probably barely use) for accounts with no id verification. It has to be worth the wait and 10 sounds just isnt worth it
There basically already is (sigh, bulk upload… literally the main way I upload assets.)
I can’t believe we were given two weeks to re-upload audio. Even with the 2000 audio upload limit, it is not sustainable to re-upload every audio that you don’t own to make it to your game. Plus, 2 things could happen
- Developers could get moderated for audio that’s harmless
- Developers don’t want to re-upload their audio because their computer storage could die
I’ve stopped developing on Roblox because of this update. I wish Roblox found a better solution rather than just before first to private all audio.
Atleast remove that stupid cap, and let us upload unlimited!
“no bc our terrible moderation will get soo tired. we need mone from this best update. we need this hard limit which is toootally enough to replace all audio in all games. were the best.”
I don’t see why you guys could’ve just improved your copyright moderation. Literally no one likes this update.
Plot twist: Roblox may have wanted you to use their audio as a replacement instead of re-uploading yours. Literally going backwards from their continuing mission to allow more UGC on the platform which they mentioned in the original post despite all this lawsuit speculation.
Unfortunately the damage may have already been done by now. I am extremely disappointed by this as well. I wonder how many people believed it was a terrible mistake for Roblox to allow sharing of UGC audio back in 2013, but I’m sure many others loved it [while it lasted], myself included.
i mean, if you hate it soo much, roblox will close their ears. this post is useless
Glad we’ve received some important information on this change and consideration from the team at ROBLOX, but is there any estimate as to when audio assets will be able to turn public?
It appears they still have no estimate unfortunately. Until then, you’ll have to use your own audio for your experience or use Roblox’s audio which they have strongly encouraged, but I believe many devs are refusing to use Roblox’s audio.
ah yes
my audio that i got permission to use that wasn’t even copyrighted in the first place got copyrighted
love this update great job roblo!!!
Contact support and provide proof that you have permission to use it. Just a suggestion, Roblox support most likely won’t do a thing about it, but it’s worth a try
