Levelpacking credit
When adding credits for a release, there should be an option to give a scener credit for Levelpacking. Levelpacking is a skill of major importance. It means the difference between a three sided game and a one sided game. |

Not always. There were releases back in the day, that were levelpacked by importers and other people other than the original cracker. |

These are exceptions.
I'd say add the levelpacker as the cracker and add info in 'trivia' or 'production note'. |

The amount of exceptions of this sort are many. I remember when there were many imports that were levelpacked by people other than the original crackers. A Touch of Class, North East Importers, International Network of Chaos, Random, Mirage and my groups did levelpacking for cracking groups. When crackers levelpacked their own cracks, they almost always indicated in the intro's scroll that the game was levelpacked by them. Perhaps today with crackers at a mastery and level of knowledge enormous to what the crackers knew in the old scene, levelpacking may not be considered to be that big of a deal, however back in the day, levelpacking was a demanded must for cracked games and was highly regarded for conservation of space. |
