Well today, I was just looking about YouTube, then I stumble upon a resource pack that was boasting 'SPHAX BLOCKS' I checked out the video, and I saw that almost EVERY block on there was made by Sphax, I did not see any permissions to use your textures, here's the link[link]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYGm0jKwN0w[/link]
Some people believe I play MineCraft, I'm beginning to feel its MY REALITY

That's just an awful remixpack... Without any permission of anyone for sure.

Is there any way that you can stop him? I don't want your work in someone else's dumb pack, it doesn't seem fair :(

This may not be any of my business, but I was looking around Youtube, and I saw someone using your textures in his "PvP" pack, since a lot of people who "make" pvp packs steal a lot of other people's textures, mostly Vattic's Faithful, but when I saw his 'Scooby Doo' Pack, (The first one in the video) I was pretty dang shocked that YOUR textures were in the pack, I then looked at the download link. I didn't see any money-earning links, but I read deeper into the comments section, and quite a few people said this was illegal and mentioned that he was EARNING MONEY! I'm not sure if this is true or not, but could you at least check it out to see if he is in fact earning money.

Best of luck!

TNTMASTERDude, merged this thread with your other one.

You've not actually said exactly where you found this latest pack mind, so I'm not sure what you're expecting to happen.

I realize that this topic has been dead for a while as the most will not remove their packs containing stolen textures, but I just had so much fun replying to one of the people against the packs removal.

Remember, fighting is not always the answer. Sometimes words can be more powerful than any weapon. Unless, of course, that weapon is a flame-thrower, or a side winder missile. Or really any type of rocket propelled...

Got A Question: Is it legal to change some textures form Bdcraft Sphax and use them then for a server?

No, you're allowed to modify the textures (that's what a texture patch is). It's illegal for the base textures (unmodified) to be distributed without explicit permission or a link to the adfly/adfocus downloads. The textures must be modified to allow for legal distribution, as well as a link to this site.
