The "Brutalist House"'s souroundings are based on the Heathtrow Hotel.

The Souroundings of the "Brutalist House" aren't an appartment complex, they are based on the lobby of the Holiday Inn London Heathrow T4 - a famous "liminal space"/"Backrooms" location, that actually exists, as opposed to the Bathhouse wich is based on Art. The Location is often interpreted as outdoors (including in the game), but is actually indoors and thus looks uncanny. However The Hotel itself isn't Brutalist. The Thematic link to the Airport seems to be important.

Here is a Source (if Reddit counts) https://www.reddit.com/r/LiminalSpace/comments/n47ydu/if_someone_wondered_the_location_is_holiday_inn/ You can also do an image search for the hotel. 87.168.95.154 (talk) 10:34, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done I changed it to be more broad since no reliable source said it was an apartment complex, either. Note that Reddit is not a reliable source, so we can't add that 'lobby' interpretation. WhoAteMyButter (🌷_talk│🌻^contribs) 09:12, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Screenshot

do to a request for a Screenshot, i was wondering what part of Myhouse should we add? 1timeuse75 (talk) 15:16, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note that screenshots of MyHouse.wad showing any textures or assets from id Software would be a copyright violation and cannot qualify as fair use, as these assets are not free. WhoAteMyButter (🌷_talk│🌻^contribs) 22:21, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

if the image is Low resolution and has a Purpose of use it gose under fair use (example) 1timeuse75 (talk) 13:54, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It would not be fair use because a free alternative could exist (Wikipedia:NFCC 1.), as you could use textures from Freedoom. The reason the Doom 1 image is fair use is because it is used on the Doom 1 article and a free alternative to depict Doom 1, cannot exist. WhoAteMyButter (🌷_talk│🌻^contribs) 22:44, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So you're saying that a screenshot from myhouse can be included if the textures are from Freedoom? Ok but my initial question was what Part of Myhouse should we add? what part of the modded can we add a screenshot for? 1timeuse75 (talk) 09:48, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think the main living room of the house would show off its architecture best, as the architecture is present throughout the other areas. WhoAteMyButter (🌷_talk│🌻^contribs) 22:52, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just added a Screenshot 1timeuse75 (talk) 07:22, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright

is "memory=entryrrrr/////" also part of the CC BY 4.0 or not? 1timeuse75 (talk) 13:00, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

let me clarify, in the myhouse.txt in the copyright section it says "This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0". but i'm confused on how much of Myhouse is in the license. if this Obituary picture is part of the license what else is? so my question is, are stuff like memory=entryrrrr///// by Sarah Mancuso part of the license or not? 1timeuse75 (talk) 12:31, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The music is very likely under the same license as well. Sarah composed the song for the map and the map as a whole is licensed under CC BY, so it would apply to original soundtracks unless stated otherwise. The obituary picture is likely not under this license, but instead under the license of the photographer. It's impossible for us to know who took the photo, so the rights to it may belong to Veddge, or not. WhoAteMyButter (🌷_talk│🌻^contribs) 20:25, 12 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

So i just found out that the copyright WAS stated in her bandcamp upload of "memory=entryrrrr/////" at the bottom. 1timeuse75 (talk) 15:26, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fictional

It should probably be mentioned somewhere that the map is entirely fictional 104.254.223.164 (talk) 03:03, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's a video game mod with clearly fictional aspects. There's nothing to suggest it's real. WhoAteMyButter (🌷_talk│🌻^contribs) 19:59, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I should specify that the Obituary stuff and the newspaper photos are fabricated. This was revealed to me in a TikTok discussion with the wife of the map's creator. 104.254.223.164 (talk) 02:55, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

She has a public TikTok page that goes into depth about this topic. @bananapantsamy. Sorry if this isn't enlightening news, but from the discussions I've had with others about this wad, many people don't know about this. 104.254.223.164 (talk) 03:07, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Even if so, that is definitely not a reliable source and we cannot include it. This is all entirely original research. WhoAteMyButter (🌷_talk│🌻^contribs) 03:08, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
