What is this?

livemods is the home to paid mods by live627.

What happens after I purchase a mod?

After you purchase a mod:
  • You get a full year of updates and support
  • Each paid mod has its own board

Copyright removal?

No copyrights or linkbacks are featured on any of these mods.

Do any of these mods use hooks?

Many of our older mods still use file edits, but will slowly transition to hooks in the future as they get refactored and updated for SMF 2.1. SMF 2.0 only has a handful, so many mods will still see a good number of edit instructions. The edits our mods do make are designed to be easy to spot, and attempts are made to find unconventional code paths that might be unmodified to try to avoid possible conflicts.

Why is the usage of hooks and no file edits so important?
  • No matter the language, no missing text and telltale errors all entries are present
  • No edit conflicts — it doesn't matter if this mod is installed first and uninstalled third; it will just work.
  • Less files to edit means less permissions hassle. Your Packages directory should still be word-writable, though, because the package manager extracts files to ./Packages/temp in order to actually prepare and install them.

License/Legal

What is the license?

No redistribution is allowed under any circumstances. If you'd like to share, please point your friend to this website. Modifications are limited to your personal use only!!

Am I allowed to run two or more copies of a mod?

Yes, you most certainly can! For example, if you wish to install one copy at http://www.example.com/forum1/ and another copy at http://www.example.com/forum2/, you will only need one license.

Payment

What about rebates? Aren't they allowed??

There are no rebates. Rebates aren't given because these are non tangible goods and once you gain access, this site cannot keep track of how many copies you obtained or whether you lost them. If you chance to lose one of these mods and your subscription expired, you'd need to re-purchase it again.

Payment is pending even though I paid in PayPal

You need to contact live627 (website administrator) and let him know of your payment.
