Additional information

a fork of re3 on git has been restored, but not sure worth re-adding package to lux

Considering this got taken off github last time, I don't want to have this project get caught in the crossfire. So I won't be using that engine again.

Greetings @d10sfan,

It looks like the author of the fork challenged the DMCA and GitHub restored it.

In this case, would you reconsider readding the port to Luxtorpeda, please? Thank you!

Let's hope that the engine will be found free of legal issues, though it may take some time for the situation to stabilize (one way or another).

I'd prefer to wait until it's known more if this is valid to use or not. I'll keep an eye on it.

hello, is there way to get luxtorpeda to use this engine if I place the files into the directory manually by myself?

Yes, you can see how this could work here: luxtorpeda-dev/luxtorpeda#65 (comment)

@d10sfan As the original repo has been cleared from DMCA strike, would you reconsider readding the port, please? Thank you!

I've re-added them for now. If it gets taken down again, that'll be for the last time, but so far so good.
