Hello.

Some player has used my bus. Okay. But he removed ALL credits (including the things in the bus that weren't made by me) and put his name everywhere, then renamed it. How do I protect my models from things like this? I mean a noob won't remove "Made by someone".

EDIT: I mean, is there a way to do it with scripting? This is NOT a request.

If you gave it out as a free model, you should have expected this. theCJarmy7 1293 — 6y

I'm not sure about this, but wouldn't it be possible to put all the functions and such into a private module and request it? Something like Kohl's admin? radusavin366 617 — 6y

A module will be a good idea, but hiding it will take some scripting, like setting it's parent to nil. User#22219 20 — 6y

This has nothing to do with scripting.

Plus this is just like asking someone to script for you.

You should read this: https://scriptinghelpers.org/blog/posting-good-questions-and-answers-on-scripting-helpers

If you give your models for free you got to understand that there is nothing that will stop the free model user from changing the free model's content. royee354 129 — 6y

this is not a request and i perfectly know that this is not a request site. i simply asked if there is a way to protect from credit thefts using scripting. i have thought about require and reverse print, but that seems too weak NsNidPL 41 — 6y

Then it is definitely irrelevant to scripting. royee354 129 — 6y

Making a free model is essentially uploading it to a public domain. You might "own" the model in your inventory, but you don't "own" the model as it is in other people's games once they've taken it.

Not much you can do about this since its a free model. If he leaked it from your game I would contact roblox.
