So each user could make a list of his 'favorite' models\skins\icons and everyone could view it? How will that be helpful?

Because if you see a model, icon, etc, in someone's map, and you want to use it, you would be able to found it easily. Otherwise, you'll be able to know who made the icons, etc, that you added to your map. In my case, I've used a lot of icons from here, and when I release my map in the future, I'll have to search again for all the authors, if I'd had a list like that I could find them easily.

Just make a list in notepad? Seriously is it that hard? Or write the credits list in-game as you import the files.

You're a complainer, man.

And yes, it's that hard for me. I want it as easier as I can.

Technically I would take the md5 footprint of all textures in a map and match them up with resources in our sections to automatically give credits. I would just need to some work. I will keep it in mind for future development :)

Great. It would make a lot, A LOT, easier to give credits. It's the most useful thing that you can have. :D

Thank you, Ralle.

Did you even consider that it might take Ralle's free time and\or waste him time just because you're lazy?

Ask him. Don't tell me.

Or. you chould maybe possibly make a folder on your desktop and name it whatever your map is and but all the models/icons in that folder?

Certainly I could. But anyways, if he can make this for the Hive, it would be great not only for the lazy ones as me, but also for the icon, model, etc, makers, that would know which maps have their icons. A notification for this would be great! This also allow them to have a reference map to see how an icon looks in-game. In the description of the icons could appear in which maps they are being used.

It's not lazy, its creative.
