shezan74 11 Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Hi guys, i'm working on a Fallujah city map, and i need to place houses in quesh-kibrul - avgani style (from ArmA1). There is a package that contains those houses that is useable in a island? Where i can find it? Thank you in advance :) Edited August 29, 2010 by shezan74 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bushlurker 46 Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) Hi Shezan... Not sure which buildings were used on Quesh-Kibrul... ask Old Bear maybe? As far as Avgani objects are concerned, theres a kellys heroes mirror posted on the Armaholic Page, get the objects pbo's there... To use, just unpack the objects or houses .pbo file to a folder directly on P:\ Add to Visitor from that location and place as usual... Add the name of the objects .pbo to your "required addons" bit at the top of your island config... Add the original objects.pbo to your terrains modfolder... Tell people they need it! and/or provide the file or a reliable link... Normally I'd say "and ask for permission" but of course you'd need to find Opteryx... that ain't likely to happen, so I guess all you can do is use 'em in good faith as the hard work of a fellow island-maker, and credit appropriately... For Arma 1 models you want the "environment/other" pack from HERE, though it isn't a "package" as such, its everything!, so you'd need to pick your models and create a "shez_models.pbo" buildings pack of your own...

You don't need to ask permissions to use external pbo in your terrain project. Nowhere in his post he was saying he will take the models and add to his addon/mod/terrain files so we assume the normal terrain design, objects are referenced from their original pbo and for that, you don't need permissions.

bushlurker 46 Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) True I guess... I just meant though that if I was planning on using, say, IceBreakrs "ibr_towns.pbo" I'd probably ask first, since he's around to ask... B Edited August 30, 2010 by Bushlurker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shezan74 11 Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) Thanks! Anyway i think a word to the author is a nice satisfaction for his work :) About fallujah, it's a 10x10 map, made from satpics. The map is made for my clan needs, to have a big city where to train. Will be released to public when ready and/if will be acceptable in quality :D EDIT: Bushlurker... did you considered to change nickname? maybe... Wiki-Lurker? Knowledge-Lurker? should be more appropriated! thank you :) Edited August 30, 2010 by shezan74 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snake Man 407 Posted August 30, 2010 Since OFP times it has not been required to ask permissions to use objects from external pbo, everyone knows this. If you TAKE someones objects, ADD them into your PBO, then you are taking the objects and showcasing them as your own, THEN you need to ask permissions. It makes no sense whatsoever to ask permissions to use objects which the author intended for people to use in the first place. With this ideology, do I need a permission to play someones mission? Maybe I need to send private message to BIS the next time I want to play Warfare? Come on guys, stop spreading this completely false information which the newbie community guys reads as facts.

oldbear 390 Posted September 3, 2010 The buildings used by Floosy on Quesh-Kibrul are only BIS ArmA2 buildings, such as : dum_olez_istan2 dum_olez_istan1 dum_olez_istan2_maly dum_olez_istan2_maly2 dum_istan3_pumpa dum_istan3_hromada2 Those buildings were the "south Saharanian" buildings ported by BIS from ArmA to ArmA2, they are to be found in Buildings.pbo. I have also used them on Tropica as Floosy give me some of his templates. Speaking about Avgani houses, I have the same questions due to the fact that Opteryx has leave the community the way you know, asking his products were to be deleted from the site hosting them. I was wondering about using his buildings on a Sbrodjistan port to ArmA2 : CO .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
