## Derived Work — Epic Fight
|
|
|
|
Portions of this project (everything under `com.tiedup.remake.v3.*`, starting with 0.6.0-ALPHA) are derived from **Epic Fight** by the Epic Fight Team, licensed under GPLv3. See:
|
|
|
|
- Upstream repository: https://github.com/Epic-Fight/epicfight
|
|
- Upstream license: GPLv3 (identical to this project)
|
|
|
|
Each derived file in `com.tiedup.remake.rig.*` carries a header attribution to Epic Fight. No Epic Fight assets (textures, 3D models, animations) are reused — only Java source code for the animation/skeleton/mesh infrastructure.
