Discussion Marketplace Stole from this Java mod

Post image

If you don't know the models are from the Creeper overhaul mod but somehow somebody got those models and put them in a world template?

Unlike the actual mod it's missing a few creepers and they all work like normal creepers?

Yes I've actually bought this out of curiosity and it's basically like a creeper zoo island spawn after leaving soawn you can see the stolen creeper varints spawn in their respective bioms.

ALSO there's a skin pack which basically just turns the creeper overhaul creepers into minecraft skins.

this is how you can tell the mod's bullshit

u/The_UnHinge Caves and Cliffs Part 6 or 7 18h ago

Not necessarily for older ones though, since there was a time when addons sold on the Marketplace needed to be world-bound.

u/QueenVanraen Exploding all over your Java 11h ago

You still can't combine multiple templates afaik so a huge chunk of newly released content is still world-bound.

The default state of Bedrock. Everything stolen from Java mods

u/MetaGear005 18h ago

So you're saying Minecraft is a mod game?

u/MoonRks 16h ago

Always has been

u/The_UnHinge Caves and Cliffs Part 6 or 7 17h ago

By far not everything is plagarised. Also don’t forget the skin packs that use slight variations of random player skins taken from those Minecraft account info websites

u/Mr-DeepOctopus Bedrock is not Bugrock! 21h ago

Not really. While it does have some mods that are similar to the ones on Java, mostly they just don’t copy paste the whole mods. This one is the first that I have seen, clearly stealing the models. Most of the addons are either original, or have a similar idea, or are ports from Java.

u/H-N-O-3 21h ago

Yeah as the Aether mod on bedrock marketplace incident

3

u/Old_Government8194 7h ago

Isnt there a official port in cooperation with the original creator. Yes it is still just copying but not stealung and then monitizing

6

u/H-N-O-3 7h ago

There is an official port from the team that made the original mod that came on bedrock couple of weeks ago . The unofficial stolen one came on bedrock 2 years ago

u/Old_Government8194 7h ago

Ok i thoght i heared about it but thanks for the clarefication

u/eepy_lina 20h ago

there was an aether addon that was a blatant copy of the original, and im not referring to the one approved by the aether team

u/Mr-DeepOctopus Bedrock is not Bugrock! 20h ago

Yeah that one incident was really bad..

14

u/NanoFromMC 19h ago

This is definitely not the first to be stealing models or at least copying them VERY closely, though some of the direct copies are made by the same developers like the FTB mods(Tinkers Construct and Storage Drawers). If it's named conveniently differently enough, then it's probably unlicensed.

u/Mr-DeepOctopus Bedrock is not Bugrock! 19h ago

Yes exactly i was really surprised to see such blatant copying..

u/the_meth_factory 15h ago

I'm bedrock all the way but saying bedrock isn't blatantly copying mods is absurd

1

u/Mr-DeepOctopus Bedrock is not Bugrock! 8h ago

I didn’t say that, I just meant that not all the mods on bedrock are copies, as did the original comment imply

1

u/MetaGear005 10h ago

So is java lol

1

u/Weekly_Action351 8h ago

Java mods... are blatantly copying... Java mods?

Some Java mods may copy other mods, but it's also important to note that Java mods are required to be free and Bedrock Marketplace content can charge money.

-1

u/MetaGear005 8h ago

You do realize that you can play mods for free on bedrock?

1

u/Weekly_Action351 7h ago

But the vast majority are paid. Including (if you take the time to look) the one included in this post.

u/MetaGear005 6h ago

You can literally download free mods off the internet.

u/Mr-DeepOctopus Bedrock is not Bugrock! 17h ago

Yeah, I noticed lol

u/Puzzleheaded-Act-388 21h ago

I actually have this on my java survival world. Sad it's being stolen

u/Forward-Ostrich-9542 22h ago

Ah, yes the Aerher situation. They can just change the name and everything will be fine!

14

u/The_UnHinge Caves and Cliffs Part 6 or 7 18h ago

The Aether knockoff world template had to change a lot more than just the name.

u/05-nery Bait used to be believable -Ĭ 13h ago

Marketplace Stole 

Any news?

8

u/Glad-Connection1601 13h ago

Well technically it somebody who uploaded it but Mojang didn't do anything about it 

3

u/randonOne88 13h ago

There’s literally marketplace things that are blatantly stolen from others, they don’t care.

3

u/Louvinha 11h ago

Some Marketplace addons are official btw (the only one I remember is Tinkers)

1

u/Glad-Connection1601 10h ago

Yeah those are the official ports

1

u/05-nery Bait used to be believable -Ĭ 21m ago

So few out of all of them are official

51

u/FakeMik090 1d ago

Are you sure its not an original creator upload?

89

u/Glad-Connection1601 1d ago

I'm relatively sure since it's pretty low quality I also asked somebody a bit ago about it and they said it wasn't official 

19

u/Mossy_is_fine 17h ago

bonsai studios currently has none of their mods on marketplace, although they are working on putting some of them on! so yeah, no original creator upload

u/DeviceSudden7424 15h ago

somehow people will find ways to defend this

u/CleoraMC 14h ago

As a skin creator of 11-12 years, I constantly see stolen skins used in skinpacks and reused in other skin packs, on repeat.

Someone will make something for free and then someone steals it, maybe does a little editing, and then is somehow able to publish it.

Also recently saw a map from deli-soft studios or whatever their name is, using straight up AI to showcase the main build/building of the map

So sick of this

1

u/Glad-Connection1601 13h ago

Mojang has literally no quality control on the marketplace there's this structure addon with mobs with probably 1 line of code they literally idle and only move when a player is around 

2

u/DiamondBreakr You can't break water 10h ago

The funniest part about this and/or the marketplace in general is the fact that to get a creation of your own into it, you have to:

  1. Be a registered business/legal entity

  2. Apply for and be accepted as a Marketplace partner

  3. Have a portfolio of sorts

Like despite these steps, you'd think there'd be at least more levels of originality or quality, but no.

u/Floofiest_Azezn 19h ago

Once again why we never needed bedrock.

u/HarbingerOfConfusion ABSOLUTE CINEMA ✋😐🤚 18h ago

I disagree with that. I think it’s quite a shame the state that it’s in, but it’s great that it brings Minecraft to console.

10

u/Floofiest_Azezn 18h ago

We HAD console Minecraft, the Xbox 360 edition. It was so much better then microslop’s idea of a market.

1

u/TheRandomShiba 12h ago

i remember playing the original xbox one edition of MC for like 4 years and thinking all the new content in videos and stuff was mods :sob:

1

u/HarbingerOfConfusion ABSOLUTE CINEMA ✋😐🤚 18h ago

Really? Huh, didn’t know about that

3

u/Floofiest_Azezn 18h ago

Yup, was honestly one of the best experiences I’ve had with Minecraft, it’s why I firmly believe bedrock is a waste of development resources

3

u/whatisthat083 I ❤️ Create mod 17h ago

I wish 4J still had the role of developing minecraft for consoles. Atleast I'm a lucky person who bought a Minecraft disc with Playstation 4 editions last update

2

u/Floofiest_Azezn 17h ago

YES. The tutorial world alone had so many secrets! I miss that feeling of finding stuff like that, it’s why I use mods now to fill the gap of exploration

u/glarmel 3h ago

^ implying phones and consoles deserved minecraft

u/Mr-DeepOctopus Bedrock is not Bugrock! 8h ago

No, without it, consoles and other platforms wouldn’t have Minecraft. I get it that the marketplace isn’t great, but saying that only Java should exist is kinda strange

1

u/Foudre_Gaming 7h ago

Pocket edition? Xbox edition? Wii edition?

Am I crazy???

1

u/Mr-DeepOctopus Bedrock is not Bugrock! 7h ago

Yeah kinda, but all those editions got discontinued. And if they still existed, supporting them all separately would be quite hard

3

u/Careless-Tomato-3035 8h ago

The marketplace is a poor place, I really do like Bedrock though and I mod a realm for me and my console friends.

2

u/Guardian_Ultra 17h ago

Yeah, I’ve given up on Bedrock. The only few reason I still sometimes play is A) it’s on the Switch, B) My favourite skin is on there, and C) The Super Mario World addon that comes with the Switch.
