On behalf of our community, on the decision and with the consent of the authors officially declare: 0. Our friends Arn and Jahell decided to share with the project, the pioneer of your models1. Transfer free of charge sharing for both projects, with the consent of the authors of the models and the proposal of the moderator of the project D3D - HeadHunter.2. If any of the authors of models for the Elite D3D read all of this - ask the wish to share with the project, the pioneer of your models.3. Need to find someone who will be engaged in the import models in the game. Maybe someone will understand and formats.4. If you really want - modelers will try to send you a model in a more familiar format.5. Change models and textures - on request.6. If the models will be needed and will be used, perhaps other authors D3D, too, will give their model for the project (if we are able to communicate with them).

ok sapog "i was first" no seriously, i was interested, but hmm... it's all in kyrillian letters, i mean a short advice how to download it would be helpful. it starts with the capcha code... i mean i didn't even see if i entered it right or wrong.... i can't speak or read russian, very problematic. please help, which button do i have to press after entering the capcha code? --- ok, i got it a little help for the others... when you open the link you get here [attachment=1685:Bildschirmfoto 2013-02-19 um 20.34.20.png] enter the capcha code you see in the apropriate field (of course). press this button for "OK" [attachment=1686:Bildschirmfoto 2013-02-19 um 20.33.28.png] and you get to the site where the download should start in a few seconds. --- thanks, i will examine it, you can be sure, maybe not today, i have a "mod" to prepare and some models waiting to get released.

and oh, can you explain this a little more,it's a bit mixed up what you wrote, what do you mean exactly with sharing to both projects (i have a idea.. but i like to see that in plain text) and greez to jahell and arn --- aha... and again a aha... it's the stuff from FFED3D, well yes like it, is it "ready" to use or does "gernötli" need to take a look at it? thus because scale of FFED3D and pioneer is a bit different. in pioneer one meter is one unitfor ffe one meter is 0.1 unit. besides of the slightly inconsistant scale of old FFE, i mean it's simply irrational that the "Constrictor" (90t) is nearly double in size to the "ASP" (120t).just as a example, FFE has many ships out of scale.but usually you won't notice (especially not when playing) before you examine them and hold the mesh of one over the other to compare the sizes. though fact nr.1 FFED3D ships must be scaled up 10 times before they work with pioneer (no problem so far, i can do that in about 5 mins or so). but there is finally a chance that arn and jahell could intervene and say, "hey yes i always felt this ship is to small or to large, ok can you scale it to "this and that" size. i can, if you ask for it. ;) have phun

This model made for Elite3 D3D. The authors decided to offer these models to pioneer. But in Elite3 D3D they will be too. You can correct these models, change the texture of your choice.

"nah, i wouldn't change a screw on it" just as a sort of respect. like i said i will convert them to the proper scale in no time, but really i nlike to give yours the chance to influence this, before i decide a own scale for them. you must know i'm very displeased with the original scale of FFE. --- you said "Elite 3 D3D" is there in general a difference to "FFED3D", or is it still the same "old" game? (more or less i mean)i will see by checking out the models, of course.buti like to know this, becausei haven't visited "elite-games" since "aeons" and i have no idea what is going on in "väterchen russland" (mother russia). --- further you spoke about "exchange", does that mean you like to get some of ours into "elite3 d3d", am i right?and if, is there a specific one(s), you like to get? probably a link to your actual site would be helpful to,erm, not much news to see if i visit the "english speaking" thread of elite games, as far as something like that still exists.we have a slight problem reading russian and i always be surprised to see some of you speaking english well.most of us can't even uderstand "da"

--- (little sidenote, guess how people in zurich looked at me when i wear my fur cap, likewise people talk in chinese with me when i cut off all my hair, they started to talk in russian with me with the proper hat on. it's really funny to me (especially to me, seems a actor has got lost on me), i wear a hat and like "LEGO" the people think i represent the hat.i wear a stetson, you can be sure each and everyone thinks i'm american,i wear a fur cap, they think i'm russian,if i cut off my hair and even worse if i leave a little pony, they think i'm a shaolin and start to bow in front of me (very annyoing). also the fur cap is very handy, with that thing and the proper parka on, well each and everyone thinks i'm a cop, lol. --- be happy that i have very little criminal energy, else...

thanks for clarifying this, while, unfortunately, you may have noticed this already, things here start to go in a quite different direction. means all "elite content" (whatever that is) will be removed. i'm not happy about, you may have noticed this as well. but it won't hinder me to include some to my "FFE mod". which i already did, because i imported some buildings from FFED3D to my mod. just because they fit much better as odd skyscrapers to a game like this, but with some you can't debate. never was sure if you feel comfortable with it, but well no question anymore, you feel comfortable with it. --- "freedom among the stars" yes, we could use some freedom... this is all going to my head and i'm completely displeased with the situation.it has turned to a nightmare, no joke. --- some simply can't play fair... --- unfortunately and that's also why i'm so disliked by some, i don't eat all you serve me.you can't buy me not with money neither with false friendship. gernot has to go, he's asks unpleasing questions and gives uncomfortable answers, we don't like, so we discredit him where ever we can. but prob. they don't notice that their "imperial behave" is in the wrong place here.

You've never considered that perhaps there's good reason for not using someone else's IP?That we're not saying everything for similarly good reasons?That we're trying to do the right thing by a company who have been really good to us and so we're trying to be really good to them as a matter of mutual respect? You can do whatever you like in mod, but we're not going to have it in the core of Pioneer so that others don't get pulled into future problems of conflicts or licensing agreements.It's the best way for all of us right now and in the future.

Why the mystery? Is there a business behind it?

@walterar,No, it's just long winded and will open up more things that have to be discussed, which will mean more discussion and long winded talking to get to the same answer :(I'm not sure you guys realise how much time has been spent discussing this today alone and how depressing this negativity is

There's nothing to stop anyone doing a mod of Pioneer based on whatever you like, you're scout mod for example is brilliant, but if Frontier models form the core of Pioneer then everything based off it is a derivative of Pioneer and hence Frontier. If Pioneer is it's own thing, it's own game, then that's not an issue anymore and that is a good thing. The game itself will remain, it will be Pioneer and Pioneer is NOT Elite/Frontier/FFE. Whatever we do to change Pioneer you'll always be able to mod it into the game you want, so we want ship with Frontier models as a core part, but you're free to make any mod you want as everyone always has been and event o fork the entire thing and go it alone.

@Sapog,There's a lot of great models in that package, I grabbed it last night.I'm sure we can make use of a lot of them. Are the authors interested in creating new ships for Pioneer/Elite3D3D?

I'll ask right now.We need guarantees that the whole business with the participation of our models will be possible only with the consent of their authors. That is a pioneer will remain a non-profit game.Are you ready?

That is a pioneer will remain a non-profit game.Are you ready?No, absolutely not. Pioneer's license is GPL version 3, and the assets are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 3.0. Both of these licenses allow commercial, for-profit use. If the authors of those models will only consent under a non-commercial or non-profit license, then I'm afraid it can't be a part of the core game. It can be part of a mod, of course.

Pioneer is open source, not going to change, can't legally change as far as I'm aware! :)If you attach a readme with the models, either individually or for all of them together, that says they're shared under the CC-BY-SA-3.0 licence that we use then they cannot be closed and if used in a closed source game then they still have to make those models available publicly.We use that licence for all Pioneer models and assets and it's here: [url]https://github.com/pioneerspacesim/pioneer/tree/master/licenses[/url] :) There are no plans to close Pioneer or make it commercial.

If possible we will try to help. If you can give rules on how to do the model.
