@SgtRedChilli Thank you

This mod no longer works, post-update.

I think the new update make logo not match with name. :cozyroe:

I have to wonder if its even legal or in violation of the Valve ToS to do what he's done with regards to data collection.

@JayMaloney
That was a seriously awful reply to make. Are you trying to be unprofessional? Because if so you are succeeding
Sterfor 10 Jul, 2019 @ 2:06am 
Continue ignoring refutation to those points if you like, sure.
Vikki 18 May, 2019 @ 8:21pm

hi could you make a load of fanasty logos with dragons and other animals please

@twitch.tv/alogan19
And your point is?
Sterfor 13 Mar, 2019 @ 1:40pm 
I mean, a corporation selling more me junk food because I said potato chip once is expected these days. A random person getting whatever information he feels like because you downloaded a mod is not.
SimplyLogan 13 Mar, 2019 @ 1:15pm 
To the people yeeting about data collection, I'm pretty sure that the electronic spy devices you carry around with you almost 24/7 (smartphones) collect far more data then this ever will.

Sterfor 9 Mar, 2019 @ 12:17am 
Again, Steam collects basically the same info itself. The mod author is just showing he's willing to collect data, which doing so at all as a single person who could easily update with malicious code is shady in my book.
Sewirut 9 Mar, 2019 @ 12:15am 
YES, you can download it, no problem.

What the author is collecting is basically if, and only if, you unsubscribed to the mod after your first try. Basically what they do is:

1- When you first open the game the mod sends a signal to them written "new", telling that you never played with the mod before (at least not on this installation).
2.1 - If you close and open the game the mod will send a signal to them written "returning", telling that you probably enjoyed the mod 'cause you didn't unsubscribed to it
2.2 - If you do unsubscribe, the mod sends a signal to them written "unsubscribe".

Anyone can confirm it by going to your game's folder/resources/app/mods/realbrands and opening start.js . The function that sends the data is declared in the 14th line.

It's THAT easy. They aren't collecting personal information, please stop saying that it's dangerous and that people shouldn't download it, you are denigrating their image as a mod developer.

Oh, nice, rl logos... and data collection... really? Well, thanks but no thanks.
scaramonga 19 Feb, 2019 @ 8:55pm 
AVOID!
RatBag 9 Feb, 2019 @ 8:16am 
I just got the game and If i was you stay away from this mod as it spying on you I wanted to get this mod but no am not now
Vinolik 19 Jan, 2019 @ 3:17am 
cuz he's an anus
Adz 10 Jan, 2019 @ 1:40pm 
why hasnt the auther replied on all this data collecting?
nice guy 20 Dec, 2018 @ 8:12am 
Why are you collecting data? You literally do not need to do that, workshop gives you that information. This is super Suspicious. Do not use this mod before we get clear answer what is going on.
Vinolik 23 Oct, 2018 @ 2:04pm 
This item has now been reported to Steam Support and they say they will investigate further before taking any action. Fingers crossed this gets removed once and for all.
NoxiousPluK 22 Oct, 2018 @ 1:05pm 
You can already see these stats in the workshop themselves. There is zero reason to collect it.
NoxiousPluK 22 Oct, 2018 @ 1:05pm 
Stopped using this due to data collection.
Vinolik 10 Oct, 2018 @ 2:48am 
Afaik, it ia not allowed in the steam tos. I have reported this but they dont care even the slightest
Deramour 18 Sep, 2018 @ 12:19pm 
Why.. just why do you collect data.. Why is it important to know, that I start the game.. This is total useless...
And if I unsubscribe you will see this shit in your mod statistics..

Good mod idea, but sadly I won't use it.
Howell@theMoon 30 Aug, 2018 @ 7:30pm 
Yikes...
Thanks mate for letting us know you're watching our data, and that you aren't using it to identify people, but I'm not downloading a spyware mod essentially.
All the best!
Kudam 24 Aug, 2018 @ 1:36am 
Nice
강태현 23 Jul, 2018 @ 2:08am 
i cant apply
maxalfuh 8 Jul, 2018 @ 9:03am 
I was going to download this mod but after finding out that it steals my data bye bye!
Mikroökonomie Moritz 6 Jul, 2018 @ 9:08am 
Thx for updating the mod (I was the guy on Discord)
Hayley 4 Jul, 2018 @ 3:02am 
Np man, glad its sorted. Will reinstall now :D
CliFF122  [author] 3 Jul, 2018 @ 6:16pm 
iTzCallumUK, yes something in the update seems to have screwed things up. I have pushed an update that should fix any and all issues as well as changing the icons and adding a few new companies. Thanks for letting me know!
Hayley 20 Jun, 2018 @ 8:05am 
Just an FYI, mod is kind of broken as of Beta 16 (as it adds more competitors). Like the game still plays fine but for some reason I had Ebay in Social Media, Amazon too.
Vinolik 19 Jun, 2018 @ 3:43am 
You dont decide what matters to me, cuck
Confucius 19 Jun, 2018 @ 3:35am 
he could have not told you he was getting data on you and nobody here would be butthurt, its anonymous and literally no affect on your life so stfu
Tunguska 25 Apr, 2018 @ 9:22pm 
This mod was a great idea, but data farming subscribers is wrong regardless of the intent. I'm surprised so many people subscribed to this.
Vinolik 21 Apr, 2018 @ 5:22am 
I really don't understand how Steam can allow collecting of data from users via workshop
Sterfor 20 Apr, 2018 @ 5:23pm 
I'd prefer to not download this mod when I don't know the extent of the info you gather, there any way you can detail exactly what it records about players, and/or leave it for download in a non-automatically installing platform?
Officer Patches O'Houlihan 19 Apr, 2018 @ 1:55pm 
@Xerento the update fixed it it seems.
Shuggle 2 Apr, 2018 @ 10:41am 
@Wezly17 Its not the mod... it could be your PC/Laptop but if you have a beast like me and it is lagging you maybe have too many mods active or your storage on your PC/Laptop is dying painfully
ducatman77 1 Apr, 2018 @ 12:18pm 
Hi I want play with your mod but when I launch sc, I go to see if I can use my mods, there are no mods but I've suscribed to your mod... Please help me if you can. Thanks :-)
Officer Patches O'Houlihan 21 Mar, 2018 @ 4:10pm 
The mod made my game lag. will that be fixed soon?
kaosgr 21 Jan, 2018 @ 1:13am 
There is no mod working with this game. App doesnt see any which I've subscribed. Anyone knows why?
Izios 18 Jan, 2018 @ 7:43am 
Very nice
Ganshi 15 Jan, 2018 @ 4:06pm 
cool
Nacho 12 Jan, 2018 @ 10:45am 
the mod doesn´t work
ChuLeeYen 8 Jan, 2018 @ 5:35pm 
Wanted to Subscribe to this Modification..
But after reading the Discalimer, iam like .. "No thanks!"

Everyone should be able to decide themself if u want Data to be collected or not..
dmitry 17 Dec, 2017 @ 1:15am 
подписаться на мод и перезагрузить игру
ZhekaK 16 Dec, 2017 @ 12:03pm 
как добавлять моды, чтобы они отображались в игре?
