Public Apology to Vikinger

To all the members of this forum I would like to publicly apologize to Vikinger for having his seafloor tga in the mod that I released in this thread. He has kindly brought it to my attention, which horrified me to the bone.

I used Vikinger's tga to find the file pathway so I could create a seafloor mod. As you can see the pictures I uploaded don't match the tga that are contained in the download link. I immediately withdrew the link and amended it with the correct tga file.

I did not mention Vikinger in the post or the readme file because I did not use any part of his original seafloor in the one that I had made, as mentioned above; his mod was used to find the tga location within the SH3 folders only (I still stand by this decision).

But as for Vikinger's tga being in the upload, this is totally unacceptable, I'm embarrassed that this occurred, and I sit here before you all not happy with the situation. I have always given credit where credit is due, but for the person who originally made the mod, this would not make you have a warm and fuzzy feeling to see your mod in someone else’s mod to which they are claiming full ownership of........well I think I would want to take that person for some dead ground counselling.

Vikinger mentioned that the same thing had happened to him, but when it happens to you, well you just feel clumsy in your modding ability.

Vikinger I 'am truly sorry, this will not happen again.
