Title: Re: OPEN ARENA NEW WEAPON MODELS!!!!!!!1 Post by: Neon_Knight on March 01, 2011, 09:02:57 AM It is puzzling why there is at least one person each year that try's to contribute other games content... They don't bother to read the licenses of the things they want in OA. In the worst case, they also want to "contribute" things to OA without even DO NOT LINK (http://([b)) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/DeveloperFAQ]reading[/url] DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/GoodPractices]the guidelines (http://([b) DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/NOTTODO]of this project (http://([b)[/b].kit89. And that is, and always has been, one of the main sources (if not THE source) of the big dramas, regarding to OA's content. Title: Re: OPEN ARENA NEW WEAPON MODELS!!!!!!!1 Post by: Cacatoes on March 01, 2011, 09:52:02 AM This post is in general, not in "Contribs", so I wouldn't consider this was an attempt to contribute.
From a player's perspective, there is nothing wrong in borrowing things from other games if you like, and it's not even bad to want to share it. Problem is it's copyrighted, but that's the only problem. Not everyone has a background with good understanding on opensource projects, and simply are not aware you can participate from the inside. Some may have their habits from the modding scene where you couldn't access the main content of the game (for both legal and technical reasons). Again, that doesn't solve the copyright issue. Then finally, some people just have a hard time to distinguish what is copyrighted from what isn't, what is free to use and how compatible ressources are between them. Even if this is not necessary, awareness of licence variety is something you get when participating to opensource projects. In other situations, you barely care, and you build your project while taking the risk law could seize you, which is judged acceptable in some circles.

//Honestly, I dunno much about Warsow, but if the code is GPLed (Should be, since it's ioquake3-based, AFAIK) then what we need is a bomb model, if I understood the situation correctly. Or I misthought it and it's just replaced some content... or this isn't about a bombing gamemode? Title: Re: OPEN ARENA NEW WEAPON MODELS!!!!!!!1 Post by: Neon_Knight on March 01, 2011, 10:30:44 AM I just missed the point... what was in that removed content? Warsow weapon models and UIEnhanced.//Honestly, I dunno much about Warsow, but if the code is GPLed (Should be, since it's ioquake3-based, AFAIK) then what we need is a bomb model, if I understood the situation correctly. Or I misthought it and it's just replaced some content... or this isn't about a bombing gamemode? For some reason, Warsow weapons and OA's environments felt to me as if they clashed.

Title: Re: OPEN ARENA NEW WEAPON MODELS!!!!!!!1 Post by: Gig on March 31, 2011, 01:25:48 AM I'd like to see someone adding Counterstrike weapons in OA!!!!!!! Only weapon models (their "look") may be changed, while their behavior will always remain like in Q3A. Modified weapon behavior is stuff for a DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Mod]mod (http://([b).If you like real-life-looking weapons and physics, you may try to run DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/ModCompat/Urban_Terror]Urban Terror (http://([b) or DO NOT LINK[/b]) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/ModCompat/Reaction]Reaction (http://([b) Q3 mods... or try to put together some programmers to make a whole new mod designed for OpenArena!
