because models were made for builders to share their work with the rest of roblox so if they sold them it wouldn't be the same or some sht like that

No, buying models and then reselling them.

I would like to sell models but what PreciseLogic said.

ROBLOX would need a way to prevent such things and it would take too much ressources for the good it may bring.

What if they made it like this:

You are able to sell models to people. Once you sell, people are able to save copies of those models, but they aren't allowed to make it a free model, or resell it.

"You are able to sell models to people. Once you sell, people are able to save copies of those models, but they aren't allowed to make it a free model, or resell it."

This can't work, although I'd wish it would.

Once you insert a model, it is YOUR model now, you can do anything, there is nothing stopping you from just ungrouping it, removing whatever things attached to that to disable it being able to become a free model, you may say it has to stay grouped, but then that wouldn't allow personal freedom for the builder, maybe the builder only needs part of the model?

It is just too much to handle and develop, and much just a thing you will have to deal with. IF it was possible, and people did not wish to be greedy for money as such as they are, maybe it could happen, but based on the way roblox's studio and building/community infrastructure this is much too impossible now.

TL;DR: can't do that crap now

i sell model X1 for 150 robux
buyer gets it, i get 150 minus tax

but then

the buyer republishes it for 100 robux, taking credit for it

i then lose money and "fame"

A part of a solution is somewhat like how youtube does it with videos:

They put an official thingy next to it.

But with the thousands of models updated everyday on ROBLOX, this is most likely impossibru.

@nitro

But what if they linked every part in the model to a certain id or code? And then if any of those parts were put into a model, it could be put into a group called a sub-model. Sub-models would be models that people have bought from others, and changed.

"roblox has already proven all it cares about is money"

ROBLOX is a company and therefore MUST make money otherwise it wont survive. Be glad that they want money, otherwise ROBLOX wouldn't be around.

Yes, but what if the certain model is a script, and one wants it in his/her model, that code would prevent them from making another free model, in the same way if we made it where if the model was different it could be uploaded, then people would still be able to just change a little bit of the model and republish it to make money.

i think they should have some sort of supreme script hiding mechanism so nobody can use it or even edit it unless given express permission [like a numvalue in which you can change a code for a door or something]
