It is procedure, to get proper permission from the author, before any media (including maps) is added to the package.
If it is true, as you say, Undead, that no one asked you for permission, then obviously someone fucked up when he included your maps. It would be nice, if you could give your permission now. Otherwise, I'll remove the maps.
Btw, about the AC license "hell": the sources use a modified zlib license and every file in the package uses the AC package license. In addition, some files have own license files, which, however, never interfere with the AC package license. What exactly is complicated about that? It only gets complicated, if you try to distribute modified packages or try to distribute the name under your own name - or if you want to strip single files from the package without permission. You should assume, that those "problems" are intended. Pls also note, that any modification of the installed game is not prohibited but instead highly encouraged.
aushack, is it really the better solution, to download a full AC package to just strip the voicecom sounds from it, while crossing your fingers, hoping not to violate the license, and of course causing a lot of unnecessary traffic - than to simply send makke an email?
