If there user made models they belong to whoever made them, despite similarities to star trek (Unless he ripped them from a game that aren't player created models.) I'm sure they have a license, but even still he does not need to share if he doesn't want too, his call. He probably would of been more supportive if warfighter wasn't making a super ships mod, to be honest. (No offense warfighter, you are though, despite balance Tongue). But all in all he does not need to send them 'just because'. So war can either rip them himself or find mods that come with the images and use those. Again, either or, I'm sure if he started designing more balanced rather then crazy strong/unbalanced mods Sandtrooper would be more supportive. Since ST pretty much detests stuff like that (As I do too, but I honestly do not care more for the current nexus stats because there all messed up anyways now.)

Just to state theres tons of models out there that you can look for, though, Bridge Commander for one, for example, but there model files, so you'd have to do a bit of work.

As well warfighter, I took a look  at what you are doing and your mod files are extremely weird. They have extra spaces and all files requre a extra blank enter key/space at the end to reconize its a full line. Your text editor, whatever you are using, is making a mess of the mod files. I did not bother looking at much else just yet because of that, its a big issue that would cause the game to crash and other junk.

Get something like TEXTPAD www.textpad.com which supports opening these files properly and edits them properly, it should not mess up the files like your current editor is. Whatever program you are using to edit is not leaving the extra blank/ending space like it properly should. You will most likely have to add it on your own if you get me (But to every file) But I would just redownload the game (Or if you have a zipped files that are UNTOUCHED). But best bet would be to use the installer to get default files and EDIT using TEXTPAD or NOTEPAD++ or something. (Notepad++, not regular notepad). That should help EXTREMELY and prevent your crashes when editing simple things.

yeah, i had to go through a bunch of ships making them gold and shiny [like the golden battleship]... and a nice greyish blueish silver-like color [like platnium, but not as shiny] [like my imperial scouts/ starbases/ etc]. but the credit for the ships goes to whoever originally made them. Smiley

oh yeah, those boxes at the end of each line that i keep seeing? i used to make a new line and copy/paste one of those from the previous line, but i stopped because i thought it was useless :X

EDIT: god i hope the trial period lasts long enough :O im just a teen i cant pay $32 for anything right now :p

Yeah.. You must be using a wierd editor then that doesnt' support it properly.

For the most case, use textpad, the trial will last forever. It's just a couple second nag screen but isnt a big deal.

There's a difference between being forced to give someone your sprites, or having them use them.
If warfighter connected to the startrek server, the images would be download the to bmps/256 directory.

Frankly, I don't give a shit if someone takes my sprites. Credit is preferred, but whatever.

This is why I have a problem with WarFighter for two reasons, one which I won't state, and thus why I won't host the mod anymore because of people like HIM.

I suggest you stop discussion of my mod as of this post, all of you.
