A utility for quickly generating Baldur's Gate 3 mod packs from an unpacked workspace, along with a long list of other features that aid in this process.
20+

The license is not open source, it is source available, which is an important distinction (https://github.com/ShinyHobo/BG3-Modders-Multitool?tab=License-1-ov-file#readme):

"This software is source available, not open source. Redistribution, and modification for private or public use, without express permission from the copyright owner, is prohibited.

The fork has a modification branch that violates [private] license: https://github.com/nandez/BG3-Modders-Multitool/tree/poc/linux-port
30+
31+
I did not give this person permission, therefore they are in violation of the terms of the license. There are 39 forks of [private] project; I made this DMCA because this specific one is in violation.
32+
33+
[private] license says you can't modify the code, and it has been modified. It is in violation of the license, not just a simple fork.

While GitHub did not find sufficient information to determine a valid anti-circumvention claim, we determined that this takedown notice contains other valid copyright claim(s).

I am the copyright owner of the proprietary software mentioned below. This is a follow-up/supplemental notice to my previous successful takedown (Original Ticket ID: 4309175).
20+
21+
I am requesting the immediate removal of the additional infringing repositories listed below. The infringing code and its fork networks are spreading rapidly across GitHub, and these repositories contain the exact same copyrighted material that was already verified and removed under the previous ticket.
22+
23+
Please apply the same takedown action to these links to prevent further unauthorized distribution
24+
25+
**Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed.**
26+
27+
The original copyrighted work is a proprietary software research framework consisting of a specific collection of C++ source files, headers, and build scripts. The framework includes unique implementations of the following components:
28+
29+
Custom Logger and Hooking System: Proprietary logic for event interception and data logging.
30+
31+
Internal Tools: Import fixers, memory dispatcher fixes, and HWID/system spoofs.
32+
33+
Cryptographic & Execution Logic: Custom SHA-256 implementation fixes and entry execution stubs.
34+
35+
The copyright belongs to [private].
36+
37+
The infringing repository is a direct, unauthorized copy of my private work. This is proven by the identical project file structure, specific filenames (e.g., fix_dump.cpp, ROADMAP.txt, neverlosesdk.hpp, cpuid_emu_0.h, mem_dispatcher.cpp), and the unique coding style/logic within these files, which matches [private] original private repository perfectly.

53+
54+
Yes
55+
56+
**What technological measures do you have in place and how do they effectively control access to your copyrighted material?**
57+
58+
The copyrighted material was protected by [private]’s access control infrastructure. It was stored within a Private Repository, which effectively restricts access to authorized users only through secure authentication (password protection and SSH/Personal Access Tokens).
59+
60+
These measures effectively controlled access by ensuring the code was not indexed, not public, and only accessible via [private] verified account credentials. The unauthorized distribution occurred because these access controls were bypassed through a compromise of [private] personal account security.
61+
62+
**How is the accused project designed to circumvent your technological protection measures?**
63+
64+
The accused project is not designed to technically circumvent encryption within the files themselves, but it represents the direct result of bypassing [private]'s private repository access controls.
65+
66+
By re-hosting [private] proprietary source code in a public repository, the infringer has effectively circumvented the 'Private' status and authentication requirements [private] had in place. This unauthorized publication makes [private] private intellectual property accessible to the public without the need for the credentials or permissions that were originally required to view it.
