Teancum wrote:Sure - figuring out the inner workings of something is fine. In fact that sort of stuff is encouraged so you're a better and smarter modder. It's probably best to update your own odfs than borrow his though (I'm saying that just in case someone's thinking about doing that). That way you learn more about how odfs work, and it's 100% tweaked the way YOU want it.

Here's what I'm using:(from my readme credits)
=ARC_Commander for the Snow Trooper backpack 501st skin, blue and red laser effects, and the grenade blinking effect=
Since this is a mod, not a map, would this mean I would not be able to use them? I have no problem removing them(Well, except for the lasers cause they are fantastic, especially on dark lighting maps, but rules are rules...), as I have replacements at hand. So what is my situation?

Sorry for pestering, but I need an answer since this part is the only thing that is preventing me from uploading my mod, so sorry for pestering...

I'm assuming ARC_Commander's reasoning behind maps = OK mods = not OK was that he didn't want another mod ripping off chunks of BFX.

Anyway sorry for off-topicness again, and thanks for putting clear copyright rules up.

Just remake the effects/textures. I can send you the invisible mesh I use for force power effects (he may use "mine" anyway) if you need it. Dark Space is a mod - it's a large map pack with its own era. It is not just "a map."

So ravensoft playermodels can be converted and re-released, maybe with some tweaks?
