Re: Online Unit Reference
The sprits are the wrong size, right? So all we need to do is resize them by whatever % they need,.. and clean them up a touch,...
This saves me time messing about adding units to test nations to see what they're like and taking screengrabs.

Re: Online Unit Reference
Beware of making things with that. There was alot of discussion on whats already been offered and deciding NOT to make it findable online, not provinding a zip of the entire library, and other worrisome things. Getting Illwinter AND Shrapnel to agree on public libraries gets beyond a casual conversation. If we step too close to the line we might end up getting a rock-hard rule created on the subject that would take the easy way out, and that could impact all of us.
This wasnt aimed at anyone in particular. Just a general comment to everyone creating things for the game.

Re: Online Unit Reference
If they mind their sprites being altered and re-used in a mod for their own game that's going to be played by all of 20 people,.... well then I guess that's up to them. Sounds a bit daft to me.

Re: Online Unit Reference
They dont mind that. It wasnt the use in our mods I was trying to warn about. Its the creation of another tool for use by modders. Something that would include the entire image library. Sorry for the miscom.
I think the biggest concern would be seeing them show up in mods for other games. Or even as the main library for another game someone is selling.

Re: Online Unit Reference
Well turning up in some other game for sale,... that they could fairly easily take legal action agaist I would think.
But as for other people using them for mods,.. I don't think that's too terrible. I mean I used graphics from a spiderweb game to make a mod for dom3. Since I'm not selling anything and it's not going to be played by millions of people I don't feel that's morally wrong, though I'm sure it's legally iffy.

Re: Online Unit Reference
If it gets announced here it gets removed. You should probably contact them as soon as possible and ask their permission.
