/v/lancer strikes again?
-
I feel lucky because my mod project is slowly and not release yet.
Implying we want to steal anything off of you.
Except maybe infocardsā¦

Andā¦ yeah Iām not even going to pretend I understood that

We do not have legal rights only to sell complete modified game.
Open is not Free.
Creative Commons is especialy for freeloaders.
āall-in-oneā mod does not provide interest for players.
After the week of playing mods of this type are going to ā0ā at the server list. -

Implying mods of any other type actually survive
Implying a bunch of active players didnāt decide to make this mod because every other mod was awful -

A thousand times this. Again, Iād like to repeat that the sense of entitlement and unwarranted self-importance here is astounding. Is there a legitimate reason why youāre acting like that kid in kindergarten who flipped a #$%% when he was forced to share? Because so far I havenāt heard one. From the start itās been āDURR HE STOLED TINGS HE NOT 'LOWED TO LETS HURF AND DURF ABOUT IT DEY CANT COME HERE NO MORESā rather than, again, the way it is in EVERY OTHER MODDING COMMUNITY, which is āOh, youāre gonna edit my mod? Alright, man, thatās cool, just make sure you credit my name in there. So long as others enjoy it thatās good enough for me.ā

waves hand
hey, modeler here.
Just my two bits. When I make something, I usually have a purpose for it. Now first, I consider 3d modeling an art form, so do a lot of other people, including the US Govāt.
So, when someone makes any model, at least for a US citizen and any country aligned with the US copyright law, that model is immediately covered by copyright law, no matter what the intention of use is for. Unless, of course, it was made before 1989ā¦ then it has to carry a copyright symbol.
ANYWAYS.
What Iām making clear here, is that a 3d Model is covered in both US and International Copyright law. Whether or not someone wants to spend the money to pursue you for Infringement is up to them. I guess in the end itās totally up to you if you want to risk a lawsuit or not.
Also, dont give me any #$%% about /v/. Iām a #$%% /b/tard, been one since 1975. Deal with it.

Sorry. The Berne Convention doesnāt apply to things like Mods and Fanfiction. It is also against Freelancers EULA to reverse engineer models to work with said commercial game.
Your entire argument is invalid in the face of cold, hard legal facts.
EDIT: For those who donāt believe me, check the EULA.RTF in the Freelancer directory.
Ā·Limitations on Reverse Engineering, Decompilation, and Disassembly. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the SOFTWARE PRODUCT, except and only to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation.
tl;dr Modding of freelancer in general is illegal and you cannot copyright anything you make for it. Therefore it is all subject to the U.S. Fair Use laws.

In the point of 3d models, no it is not. No matter what form the artwork is used for, the initial act of creation is given protection. Just because an object is placed into a mod does not void itās protection. I could, for example, create a model. That model could then be given to a team. That team decides to use it as a Liberty Destroyer.
Then someone else decides to use the model, ripped from that mod, in their own work, be it another FL mod, or in a machinima vid, or as a render object for a Desktop. They need my permission to use it. Without my permission, they do not have a legal right to use it.
You fail to discern the difference between being an objectās use and the actual object itself.
-
I hereby request you submit legally documented proof of your copyright on said models that you do not want in /v/lancer. They must be signed and dated BEFORE they were ever uploaded to the internet, or else they become fair use. You canāt upload something, then months later apply for a copyright, and have it be valid.

retards like this is why Iām really thinking of pulling hte plug on my eve-online freelancer mod.
But meh, If i see others ripping my mod apart and using the ships without proper credits I will let the TRADMARKED company know about it and let them come after you.
Anyways With that said, I ask for this thread to be locked, removed and archived away. this whole thread is a troll attempt and thus should be stopped right away.
So long and thanks for all the fish. . . .

Ok several things.
First off, more research on my behalf reveals that you would actually have to go and copyright that #$%%.
Second off, when the hell did we use models from you. -
