Darkhorse 1-6

#1 - Pretty sure this is necrophilia #2 - Not a request thread #3 - I'm pretty sure from how defensive the OP was that what he wants is illegal so the thread should probably be closed anyways Oh, just so ya know, if that model is a part of the BWMod it can't be converted without their permission, and I seriously doubt the BWMod will give you the MLODs for it. Just give it up with the Gepard already man...

@Soul - PRACS has permission because wld427 got it, and atleast one artillery model is already ingame and works like a charm. Yes, it was possible he had done the same, or bought them, but since the model and others are scattered over various "freeware" sites it seemed there was a greater chance of one of them being used. @F2F BHO - I apologize for overreacting a bit, but you should understand that since those models were stolen many years back and spread around the net there was a big chance you had gotten it from one of those sites. I have nothing against you or your work, and I am extremely supportive of new content, as long as it is legal. Thanks for clearing it up. I wish you luck with your projects, especially the M107 HEB, as nobody has created a working bridge system yet. As for the HEMTT do you plan on creating a version without the trailer?

Yes, that would be the model I was refering to. I have the texture files from the De Espona model that clearly show the same exact same unit markings etc. as their model. I may have overreacted as well, but I am getting tired of people ripping off models without permission/without even trying to contact or find the author.

If it comes down to it I will send an email to De Espona. I reacted like I did because there was no mention of them using his model, or any model they didn't create themselves. Since everything I have seen refers to the hemtt as their project, it's not really going out on a limb to say they had no intention of listing the actual creator.

Well, this isn't a request thread, and I hope your mission requires the entire city life mod. If you distribute any of their files seperately I think you will end up with a problem.

So... do you have permission to use De Espona's HEMTT model? Don't bother denying it, I have his model on my computer, and when I compared the model/it's textures to "your" model it looks the exact same, down to the unit numbers on it and the saying on the door.

Unfounded? Are you fucking kidding me man?! Think about RKSL Rock, Wld427 (Atleast one mod stole most of his work without permission, repainted it, and called it theirs. Not to mention the incident with the Chinook), The SARMAT guys (They use alot of FS models that shouldn't be open for people to crack), Hell, Even BIS. I found one guy who had ripped 7 models out of ArmA II a while back and put them up on Turbosquid. He even put the Abrams up there as freeware. There are many many other people that such a tool could benefit. It is not your place to say that nobody should have the choice. Am I saying that any and all addons should be locked? Hell no! What I am saying is that people should HAVE THE OPTION. You have no right to expect to modify/edit/change/take snippets, of other people's work. If they allow it, fine! If they don't want to allow it, that's their right, as the person who created the model. The user has no rights relating to the addon. I think Bohemia needs to create a poll, open to addonmakers only, on this issue. Options 3, 5, and 7 would be removed. Addon makers are the ones who would benefit from this, so they should be the ones discussing it.

You want a list huh? I'll have one, atleast a partial one, for you tomorrow. The thing is, it's not going to be ones who left for the specific reason you stated, many of the ones I think of left because people were ripping off their work, selling their models online, releasing their models as freeware, spreading the source files around the community, etc. etc. etc.

If you create the "space" completely from scratch, and spend months if not years working on it til it fits your vision of perfection, then yes, you should be able to prevent others from using your "space", and from opening it up to view the "code" that you used to create it. OT: I haven't been able to download this yet, but is the female PMC addon just a single woman?

To be clear, I don't believe that anybody who has a different opinion than mine is whiny or ungrateful. I do however believe that anybody who says outright no, it shouldn't even be an option, is whiny, ungrateful, and afraid. I'm not saying outright yes or no, but I do firmly believe it needs to exist. If certain addonmakers wish to use it, let them. If others don't want to, it's their choice. Do not make the choice for everybody.

To the f****** idiot: There WILL NOT be a USN or USMC F/A-18 from the Project RACS mod. If you send any more death threats you'll be getting some of your own, except these will show up in your real mailbox.

My god... After reading the first page I don't know why any addon makers in the community keep doing it! Why are you guys afraid of people protecting their work? All I see when people say "No! We need to learn from your work!" is a bunch of whiny, ungrateful people, afraid that they won't be able to crack open whatever model they want, whenever they want. If an addon maker could lock his P3D files, dozens more addons would probably be available right now. It would allow the addon makers who Model for a living to use their copyrighted, expensive models that they already have completed, for addons. Instead of having to create a new version from scratch and then eventually quitting because it's not worth it because somebody will just rip the model out and sell it as their own. Imagine the people who create addons for personal use and never release publicly. If they could lock their P3Ds they wouldn't have to worry about them being ripped. Why anything get's released at all around here is beyond me. It's definitely not because of the community.

Nope. Never played BC2 in my life, never will.

No it's not possible.

He definitely has the model, but as far as him getting it in-game I have no idea.

@Black Mamba: I gave Aneas2020 a Fennek model (Very high quality, over-poly in fact) for his Dutch mod a while back. I don't know the status of it, try sending him a PM.

Just a warning, the F/A-18 is a part of the ANZAC mod, it is not/will not be released in USN colors.

Anybody remember this one? Well, I am going to be converting it over to ArmA II (THANK YOU bk1276!), and maybe giving it a nice retexture paint job, (Nice, hah. You don't know how funny that is considering my PS abilities :p) along with fixing some of the big bugs that popped up from the conversion. *Until I take a screenshot with vanilla guys in it, this will have to do* I need help on a couple of things though. #1 - 45 guys inside of it, all standing there looking good, the only problem is you can walk through them all. #2 - There is a nice little flag on the back, which is scripted to the driver. (_flag setFlagOwner driver _boat) and I need help on 2 sections of it. #2.1 - Is it possible to script the flag to the boat itself, or make it where the flag disappears if there is no driver? Currently when the driver gets out the flag is attached to him. #2.2 - Would it be possible, using setflagtexture or a script etc., to change out the flag at the mission makers discretion, so that it could be switched by a simple init line code, so that the mission maker could have LCUs of several nationalities on the same mission, at the same time?

Refer to post #15 :p Still in the same situation man, won't have reliable internet til December or so, hopefully I will be out of this godforsaken RV by then.

As I have said before, PRACS is working on the Mig-21, and Franze is working on the Su-7. This is the thread for the Mig-15, not for requesting addons/aircraft/anything. Why does it keep getting spammed with requests?

Hehe. Don't worry, Eddie's is normally the best on the internet, I guess Chemo must be screwing with it. ;)

How about the Addon Request thread. Nobody is going to hand you a Gepard on a silver platter by tomorrow. It would take months if somebody started righted this second.

Funny, I seem to be identifying your post as a "shitpost" as well. @Ulanthorn Yes, I know that no soldier would drop his mags in real life. I was referring to players/AI though, and unfortunately many of the players play like this is BF2. If I ever had to drop mags (If BI ever adds a weight system or anything, or if BI includes this feature and I play ACE again) I would leave them someplace where I could pick them back up later on, but if I was leading a fireteam that was hunting for an enemy sniper, if that sniper wasn't thinking properly, it could be used to track him... ;)

In real life, the Gepard is outdated. The Air Defense Artillery arena is now ruled by missiles, and long range static setups, such as the Patriot etc. The Linebacker was actually retired a year or two ago I believe (My dad was a Linebacker crewmember, he was in ADA for most, if not all of the 26 years he was in the U.S. Army) and I was surprised it even made it in. ADA vehicles such as the Shilka and Gepard still have uses, but not on the front of the front line. Now, in combat zones where the only real threat is helicopters, they can be extremely useful, but not against jets or fast moving aircraft. Not with todays technology anyways. So please Mac, stop with the spamming Gepard requests. Somebody might make it in the future, but not if you keep on like this.

Hmm... Empty magazine objects would be a very nice addition. It would offer players a way to track enemy players/AI by their litter. :)
