PuFu 4600 Posted July 9, 2010 You won't be able to convert the p3d files, since those are "locked" binarized. And without prior consent from BIS (check EULA if you dont believe me) you are not allowed to use any of BI content outside of their games Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[aps]gnat 28 Posted July 10, 2010 they would never let me .... A good guess I'd suggest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[frl]myke 14 Posted July 10, 2010 Well, guessing is not knowing. Asking is free and anything worse than deny they wont/cant do. I'm not saying you will get permission and chances are pretty small. But if you can present a nice portfolio with works you've already done and pass some decent info about who you are and what you (plan to) do.....well, always worth a try. At least you can say you tried. In other words: you got no chance, grab it. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soldierman 16 Posted July 10, 2010 never made a mod apart from a few texture changes i just want to learn but if i was them i wouldnt trust me ---------- Post added at 09:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ---------- do i need to email BI for models ? (any model ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[aps]gnat 28 Posted July 11, 2010 You email who-ever made them. That applies to emailing us addon makers. You or anyone else rip any stuff from the OFP/ArmA community without permissions and we'll come-a-hunting! .... rip any of mine and I personally fire bomb your computer. i.e. malakoff cocktail through Windows when you open it ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
