The rules of my existing licences are that I can't revoke them, but if you prefer to use the following licence instead, you can...

Just one question about this licence thing, do I have to put your name in the credits if I use one of your modules?

Not under the existing licence, but yes if you use this new one: the choice is yours. However, I can't see why you wouldn't want to credit me... unless you've not got in-game credits, but then anyway it coudl just go in a readme or on the game page, or something.

As for your resource site, Jason, that's really just distribution rather than use and so I don't think any credit is required: except for the fact that it would be useful for peopel to know who to contact about the module... but that info is in the zip files anyway.

I meant for games. I'ts not that I wouldn't want to credit you or something it's just that people might forget or not have credits at all like you said. As for my resources site, I do include the name of whoever made the module.

Well, of course, I'm hardly likely to go after anyone anyway, especially for a freeware game, but I think its important to have a licence so its clear to people what the right thing to do is, and in case anyone makes a big profit from it!
