The problem is Dijipi pretty much only wants:@NES_player4LIFE, I think this was already properly conveyed in previous postings. The .dat file is just the texture cache format Glide Napalm uses internally (not really intended for distribution). Djipi should have properly licensed his work (don't invent a new license, use an existing one). Eventually the file hosts will die and someone will reupload it. And a whole new discussion will start about the legality of redistributing the work. I'd recommend using a creative commons license. It can, for example, allow people to distribute only unmodified files. It does not restrict anything users personally do with the files.
1. That his texture pack is only distributed (and maybe even used) as he published it (without modifications/fixes/derivations/etc), and;
2. That it is only usable with Glide64.
And I know hardly any license which allows such conditions. So Dijipi should either make a more specific/clear license, or drop those conditions altogether.
