Converting from GTA.. to Arma?

[Rarri3 0]

Hey Guys!

 

I'm really interested in getting into Arma modelling, but I find it had to get a starting point. I have made models for GTA before, so before the questions arises yes I do have permission from the source. I can't seem to find tutorials anywhere and I've looked through the bi forums but can't find anything arma related.. Does anyone have some suggestions?

Welcome! I recognise that you've stated that you "have permission from the source".  Its at this point that I'd like to bring your attention to Rule #19 on this forum, it states:

19) Posting addon/mod other content without permission

For many years this community has been known as the premium addon/mod creating community, people work tirelessly and in great detail to create fantastic addons/mods/missions/campaigns to release for free so that everyone benefits, including Bohemia Interactive. There are a few simple rules in place to provide the respect to these creative people/groups that they deserve:

The first and most fundamental rule is that you must seek permission to alter someone's work, to mirror it or use it in any way other than for personal use. No permission, no editing, no mirroring, no adding to your mod pack, no editing and sharing around your private squad, none of that is acceptable.
 

Obviously we cannot unfortunately control what people do outside of these forums, however on these forums you must follow this rule, if a person/team post a thread to share an addon/mod using content from someone else without permission and we receive a complaint then the mod thread will be closed until the issue is resolved and the forum member(s) risks being permanently banned from these forums for taking someone's work without permission.

This isn't just limited to re-using content in addons/mods/missions however, it's not acceptable to edit someone's work without permission and then to post screenshots of it on the forums (even if the edited addon/mod is purely for personal use), it's also not acceptable to edit someone's work, or use someone's work in any way that you don't have permission for and then to create videos which you post on these forums, doing any of the above without the permission of the original creators risks a permanent ban, for individuals, for whole mod teams or squads.

I sincerely hope that you are being open an honest regarding formal permission on this matter. This then brings us to "is it permitted to port from GTA to other games?". Rockstar and mods have been a delicate issue as of late. As such, It would behoove you to contact (and receive permission from) Rockstar games on this matter before proceeding.

I used to play GTA, where I made cars from said game. I am looking to convert my own cars not someone elses. All the cars I am going to convert have been made by me and me only!
