DISTRIBUTION:
PLEASE DO NOT SELL ANY OF THE MATERIAL IN THIS EXPANSION!
People trying to make a profit off of other peoples’ work smothers the custom content community and causes creators to remove their creations and stop making more, not to mention forces game companies to crack down on fan made creations like this one.
Otherwise redistribution is fine, but please try to ensure all the material in this expansion is included. Modification for personal use is also fine. Please don’t re-release modified versions of this material without including a list of changes as well as credit to everyone whose work you used, and include a readme like this one.
