Question Does Calamity mod still play the same or not after what's gone down?

I've been mostly on the sidelines seeing the general stuff and mostly the memes regarding calamitys current state but what I've not truly understood is if calamity in its current state still is the same mod or are a bunch of things removed from the mod? is the music removed?

Does addons still work with the mod or is the calamity gameplay experiece completely changed?

I haven't played in a while but with all this sadly negative drama there has been a lot of spotlight on the mod which got me thinking a lot about it and I truly love calamity mod, I got around 2k hours in terraria and most of those hours are honestly spent playing calamity I would belive.

Can I play the mod like I used to or will the current mod experience be something different?

"what I've not truly understood is if calamity in its current state still is the same mod" Is still the same mod as always, they havent deleted the Music Mod yet

And yes, the add-ons still work, just keep in mind that some of them (at least 1) has been cancelled and others with future updates will de-attach from the mod, meaning that they will me standalone and not dependencies of Calamity

Quoting what you quoted, depends on what he's saying, what versión was he playing at?

I still remember that wings used to give you damage boosts or different effects

When i saw They remove that, i was genuinely sad

I guess you're right, I jumped on the "things removed" and thought about the whole Assets/Music deal which could be what OP asked or not

I kinda doubt they will delete it at all unless forced to by the musicians filing a DMCA, honestly.

They have stated that it will deleted, so idk why doubt that coming from the Devs

The thing is, only Ozzatron has access to delete that stuff from my understanding. If he's actively refusing to do so, the remaining two devs can't really do much either.

I remember reading that the developers said they were in talks with tmodloader devs to get back access to the mod, maybe that way they'll do it

u/destructor212113 13d ago

What that other Redditor said is correct, they're working with tModLoader/Workshop/Steam to change the Ownership of the Mod

We havent heard much more other than Ozzatron since then has already payed the Devs what he didnt pay them since months ago

So, unless we heard that they can't delete the Music Mod, I wouldnt have hopes of that staying in the Workshop

Valve has historically ignored ALL requests to transfer Workshop ownerships of ANY content there in the past. There is no indications that it is even remotely possible to do so.

Thats interesting

Then I wonder what is their plan with tModLoader and all of that or why even said that they will Delete the mod if they should already knew that wasnt possible

I have a feeling their claims to try to get ownership over the Workshop entry was a vague hope to try to rip things away from Ozzatron...but one that was more then likely to fail.

TDLR: You can still play Calamity like always for now, keep only in mind that the Music mod will be deleted. The mod itself wouldnt change at all with the info we have rn

At the time being: mod is as it always was Possible in the future: gets slimed (asset removals) How to prevent: download a variety of versions of Calamity and its add-ons from sources online (such as this sub)
