I don't really follow any of your logic here.
Firstly, the highest quality mods are NOT necessarily paymods - in fact the exact opposite is often the case, as you neatly proved by your mention of the excellent free mod Bremgarten. There are many, many excellent free mods created by the community for the community, not done as cash-grabs to ostensibly 'reward' someone (in advance) for passionately enjoying their hobby. Isn't sharing that work reward enough by itself? Why must money be demanded first when all of these paymodders undoubtedly have hard drives full of content provided freely by others?
Shoddy mods sometimes gain some mythical status by being hidden behind paywalls, but the modders are soon exposed as money-grabbing shysters when the 'product' turns out to be deeply flawed.
And just because a modder wants money for their car or track does not suddenly give that mod protection against further modification. Paywalls might actually encourage modification and free reuploads as a reaction against greed and against the monetisation of a hobby that still, thankfully, remains largely active thanks to the spirit of sharing rather than cheap cash-grabs.
If you were always intending Alcañiz to be a paymod then fine, admit it. But please don't make out that you're now being forced down that route to protect it against modification.
Do you download and use any free mods provided by others?
Don't you see that your track might be a nice way to give something back?
You are right for parts, coincidence or not, the best tracks and cars that I have are paid.
Yes, it is true that a mod is paid, I do not mean to say that it is good.
But you are completely wrong with Alcañiz, although you have been correct in this `` Don't you see that your track might be a nice way to give something back? ''
Is the conversion that I have done not enough for you? ok, it's a botch, it's fixing something that can't be fixed.
It is not in the AC standards either, but I have done it for the love of art and give something back to the community as you say.
Now if I am doing a job that is going to be of very high quality, my main idea has always been to do three different stages of the circuit, and put one of them in free download.
Actually what I was going to do was form the track and the environment and build a quick track using the objects from the old track, while I model the final version that by the way I have only been modeling the hospital all week and I'm not there yet. satisfied.
That version assembled with the old objects and the new terrain mapping was the one that I was going to put on free download.
But how am I going to do that? You know that one of the stages (the modern one) had no intention or the idea of doing it, but a person from `` alzañiz experience '' contacted me and offered me to do that specifically for RV and they also made a money offer for their part, which I obviously accepted because I'm not stupid.
Before that contact I was going to go up the track and that's it, there free for everyone.
But these recent events have made me think things through and if it is really worth it for some reason that I cannot understand to give a job for free in which I am going to use a minimum of 400-600 hours.
I am not going to make the mistake of putting free to download a track, so that someone else comes, I step on my job, put it to download for free and endanger my business.
Because you know what Alcañiz has not been the only job that I have been offered to do.
