Copyright Issues on FAR videos and streams
Dear Content Creators,

first of all, thank you so much for all the attention you are bringing to FAR: Lone Sails. It really is overwhelming and we appreciate all the kind words.

Unfortunately, we have a problem that may affect you. The game is currently featuring two song snippets played over the radio in game. Videos containing footage with these songs have recently been copyright claimed on Youtube and other platforms. According to our information, those snippets were under no licence and therefore free to use. Unfortunately, somebody is now claiming the rights for those songs. We are working hard to solve this issue.

In any case, these snippets will be replaced with unobjectionable material in an update today.

If you are currently producing material that still contains the pre-patch music, please make sure to disable the sound at the spots where this music is playing (radio tower and workshop) during your broadcast.

We are very sorry for any trouble this may have caused you. If your video was claimed by Youtube, please contact us at support(at)far-game(dot)com, if you haven't already.

Edit: Update is live

What the point to contact your support if the video is claimed ? Can you fix this claim ? The temporary solution is to disable all the sounds on the YT video. :/

It is amazing that you guys took the time and effort to change the music for the sake of content creators. I've never seen any game dev do that. Wonderful. :D

Was this ever resolved? I was looking to feature the game in a video about storytelling.

Hi Tampa, the music tracks that triggered the flagging by Youtube have been replaced. You're safe to use in-game video and audio footage.

Be sure to tag us when your video is out, so we can share it!
