    So my suggestion for spout is to implement some kind of pls streaming music on the client. They do it through second life and such and it's amazing. Maybe push the url to the client and it can play streaming music?

    Not sure if that is possible well it is but hmm..

    Yup. On a copyrighted Minecraft game. You can't patent an idea.

    You have no valid claim, kid.

    You really need to talk to a lawyer before you get yourself in serious trouble. Invalid DMCA claims can be met with significant fines. Just being on this forum and threatening a DMCA claim is putting you in hot water. The appropriate way to handle DMCA claims is to submit a DMCA notice and await response.

    I did, I honestly just posted it in here and a whole shitstorm evolved.

    I'm going to stop posting here, my point has been made and if you guys don't want to understand this, okay.

    I'm awaiting response from the devs.

    Later, that is. The Licensing page shows that now.

    You do realize that that very decorative piece of digital art doesn't say that others are not allowed to use this 'idea' that is probably older than anyone posting here?

    EDIT: Nowhere does it even claim the idea of a server list to be its own, but just as a feature.

    Alrighty. I just asked my friend. He's a professional lawyer for like 10 years. And he said your claims are trash.

    I'm sorry, I don't see a valid DMCA notice/claim. You should consult with iDEPOT. You've already failed to heed their advice and made your "idea" public. Your idea is no longer novel nor can it be patented.

    You know the patent has been requested and reviewed by a lawyer, right?

    I know that it's no patent.

    No you have an idea for it. Unless you have submitted a patent (which is what this would fall under, not copyright) and had it approved by the US patent office, it enters the realm of common law copyright/patents, which requires you to actually use and develop said idea and be able to demonstrate that you developed it first.

    We are also dealing with the layer of international law as well, which makes things much more fun.

    What you do not have:
    • A unique idea (proven by server lists in other games)
    • A novel idea (proven by server lists in other games, by notch adding it in 1.8)
    What you do have:
    • Failure to understand how the DMCA works
    • Failure to understand IP laws
    • Failure to understand patents/patent law
    • Failure in posting your "unique" and "novel" idea publically when iDepot says, quite specifically, to not do so.
    • Successfully harmed the nil chance you had of getting a patent in the first place.
    If you intend to lay claim to buddy/server lists in Minecraft, you will have to battle Notch over it. He's doing it, too.

    You will also have to battle every other piece of software that offers buddy/server lists.. which is almost every multiplayer game out there these days.

    As said in a previous response:
    Notch is implementing this in 1.8

    His post on Tumblr alone stating as much makes this idea not patentable.

    Am I a lawyer? Nope.avi

    But I understand the concepts better than you, quite apparently.

    Reviewing the pretty document one last time, I noticed that it protects the intellectual property of the modification to minecraft, 'mcOverhaul'. This DOES NOT mean all the features are also protected. The server list is only mentioned in the description.

    I have been messing around with trying to get my mods to work with spoutcraft. At first I tried just adding Spoutcraft to my already modded .minecraft. This was able to run using the normal minecraft launcher and load Spoutcraft and all the mods and it used the .spoutcraft saves and texture packs, but it crashed when I entered a world. Then I tried adding Spoutcraft to a fresh minecraft.jar and it worked perfectly using the normal minecraft launcher. So I started adding my mods in to see which one was causing the crash. Modloader and Modloader MP worked, but when I added the Audio mod it did the same thing that happened when I tried adding Spoutcraft to my modded .minecraft. Then I put all my mods in (most them say they require the Audio mod) without the Audio mod and it works, just without all the sounds for the mods.

    Drag-dropping other mods that overwrite Spoutcraft's modified files and hoping everything works is not a good solution.

    Are you using that ore obfuscation plugin or a modified craftbukkit.jar?

    Yes, I know it implements those. Now what tells me that you patented that? You patented mcOverhaul, not its features.

    Optifine and HD textures are built in and by trying and failing to install mods yourself you have proved our repeated point of not editing spoutcraft, don't do it.

    No, I do not because I can read unlike a lot of people :p

    Fresh server install even (only dynmap and spout) and spoutcraft (only with texturepack)

    edit: up down scrolling in chat + copy pasting + being able to delete chars withotu the whole message is so awesome!

    Open a request on the issue track so Afforess can see and we can keep track of it easier. He is the lead developer.

    I'm not sure then. You'll have to wait from a response from one of our devs who works on that part of it.
