Hello Everyone!!
I was wondering Whether I could use models from other campaigns in my campaign??
I am not very good at modeling\Texturing and don't know how to get help!!
-
In general, models from other mods may be reused freely. It's considered nice to credit the sources, however.
Note that there is one exception to this. Models from The Babylon Project may not be used outsie of TBP. Everything else is free.
-
Can you borrow models?
Yes, if you promise to give them back when you're done with them.
:p
-
You shouldn't need models from TBP anyway, they're distinctively based on Babylon 5, their polygon number is rather low, texturing ineffective and overall quality underwhelming.
Even if TBP allowed for using their models, it'd be strongly discouraged as they're old and their quality is, at best, medicore.
-
That comment seems unnecessarily harsh...
-
It doesn't matter if it is harsh; what matters is if it is true.
-
Actually I need the models for a new species,that are based on/are similar to terrans.
So,I think i will retexture the Re-release of the Star Wars pack (Haven't Seen it yet,Downloadin from sectorgame).
Any Other opinions will be Welcomed...
-
Using Star Wars models for Terrans doesn't seem very smart since Star Wars is Star Wars and Terrans are Terrans. (This is the Star Wars we are talking about and not a model pack that is a complete misnomer, right?)

if you haven't then look though http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/User-made_Ships there is a lot of stuff that wont be suable for you as there are a lot of one shot designs difficult to piece together into consistent appearance but it is doable and Terran ships are the most often catered for

Thank You.

Thanks for your Help

SpardaSon21,I think you misunderstood me.I plan on using some of the fighters\cruisers from the star wars model pack on sectorgame,retexture them and use them as a 4th species.let me know if that's feasible... and is it ok???
-
Well of course it's OK to reskin those old models, it's just not recommended as it's really going to break immersion if you're fighting X-Wings and being told they're the Pwyf'Nagi Starfighters or something. You should try pulling a bunch of models by one author that have a common aesthetic. Try Venom's Over The Top (OTT) modeldump.
-
Some sweet models in there... Once I'm done with all my things I'll have to start looking in there for upgrades ;)
-
