Looking at the license file, it has this exception tacked onto the end:

> EXCEPTION: The above license does not apply to files located in the directory `sp-client/public/assets`. Those files are the property of Siementech Co. Ltd or whoever has inherited the intellectual property thereof, and are excluded from the MIT license grant above.

Is the general idea there that people can build the code and use the assets in personal projects, but if they want to distribute a full bundle they'll need to create their own assets?

Yes, the assets are property of a defunct company, so yeah, if you want to do it properly, I wouldn't advise distributing it with their assets, unless you can track them down and license the IP.

This project was mainly developed for Helbreath community as a modernisation project, a community which has ran private servers (illegally) as long as licensed servers have existed. The original developer never seemed to care for illegal use of their IP, even when they were in business. I'm aware of 2 cease and desist requests being sent to HB Olympia (commercial) and HB Nemesis (Steam listed) private servers and they are still both operating. Either they managed to license the IP, which I'm not aware of, or the request came from HB Korea server, which is the only licensed server left, and as a licensee they probably don't have the rights to the actual IP, hence the requests were ignored. I'm just speculating here. I'm not trying to encourage anyone here to do the same, just trying to explain the situation around the IP.
