Great that you are still around black_lightning!

Any chance that you release a shippack with the ships shown above? Or can I just take the models aout of the old Excelcia Mod (I have it on my PC) and put them into my mod (coded by me)?

I do plan on making some sort of accumulation of my ships for release, however as I planned to do that a year ago and see how far that went... well if you're able bodied enough you can certainly just extract them out of the excelcia mod for your own use. I'll give permission to use my ships, although, It's a bit tenuous to say you can copy from the excelcia mod as I am not the sole contributer to it, I can say all the ships you see here in the top of this thread, I and only I made, and therefore are allowable to be extracted by my permission. I'll grant you and anyone else who want to use the ships the permission to do such. The .cmp and .mat for anything I made are open to use if you already have the files, along with whatever icons I might have added in for them, but none of the other ships such as reven's excelcia or the ships master made can be used without their own permissions.

I haven't made anything in awhile but from what I've heard there is a hardpoint editor of somekind that allows you to see what's in a ships cmp for its hardpoints much easier then the utf editor did, so it should be pretty easy to see what ship cmps have what types of hardpoints in em. (didn't always use conventional names for hardpoints for my first couple ships, had mounts called storps or something, also on the ballista some of the gun mounts are actually used for the cm and mine launcher, with the cm and mine launcher hardpoints being better placed for guns as i found... just things like that your going to have to figure out)

Okay, great!

I already got the permission from LordFjord and )v(aster to use the Liberty Gunboat from Excelcia. However I will just use your shipmodels and do the code by myself.

HardCMP is really a great tool. I created hardpoints with UTF-Editor by myself and it was really a diffivult and boring thing to do. But with HardCMP, hardpointing got so easy that it can be done in some minutes.

So, thanks for the permission (and for the great models

and if you find the time, maybe you can try to model again
