Mapbase is an open-source project and its contents can be distributed and used at the discretion of its users. However, credit is taken very seriously, especially due to the huge amount of external content.
Mapbase is an open-source project and its contents can be distributed and used at the discretion of its users. However, this project contains content from a vast number of different sources which have their own licensing or attribution requirements. Users planning on distributing Mapbase content are expected to comply with the following guidelines:
* **Mods using Mapbase in its entirety must mention that their mod runs on Mapbase.** For example, you can mention "Powered by Mapbase" or "This mod uses Mapbase" in your mod's credits. If your mod is on Steam, it can be mentioned on the Store page. Providing a direct link to Mapbase isn't explicitly necessary, but if a link is needed, use Mapbase's [ModDB](https://www.moddb.com/mods/mapbase) or [GitHub](https://github.com/mapbase-source/source-sdk-2013) pages. More may be added to this in the future in order to greater account for external content.

* The Mapbase repository's `README` should be preserved in any fork of the Mapbase repository.
* The `MAPBASE_CONTENT_USAGE.txt` file that comes with the ModDB build should be distributed with any full distribution of Mapbase.
