Yup, that a big NO NO.

I admit , i just ripped it off the sourcecode, but if you have a zipfile containing more, PM me :slight_smile:
Credits are important to (at least) show some respect.

nope, you did it the way we intended
even belatedly you asked permission, I’m good with that

/small rant
we had a big problem with leechers linking directly to our ftp server for a while and I had to make downloads reg members only (some sites still use a work around to link) so we got a little protective of all our hard work. We’ve been around since the beginning and have probably helped in some small way to the continued enjoyment of this game. We’ve hosted 2,851,045 downloads of game files ( game and updates only) and outside of wolfmaps.de are the only people that do terrabytes of bandwith in downloads.

I’m more than happy to host or mirror any file/program/application that helps the community in any way, but please realize a couple of individuals put a lot of effort into getting someone to sponsor our ftp server, game server, and website. Indiscriminate usage of our resources annoys me.

This whole thing seems crazy…

IF i was in Shagileo and manwhore’s position i would be quite pissed at Indy, but, he has a right to make any map he wants. He’s paying the price, both in time spent, and any fallout he recieves from the community.

Personally, I feel that recreating a map, completely from scratch or not, and making it exactly the same, regardless of wether it is extracted or just hand made, is not right. I could take someones sick drawing, put it in a layer under my own photoshop project, trace your whole image out, then claim I had done a great job, and that, it was 100% hand drawn, because it was. And, though yes, recreating the map in radiant is different, it essentially comes down to the same concept.

This is supposed to be an unbiased post, but I personally have only played with indy once, where he essentially pissed half my clan off and emptied our server off for the day.

@Nail
About your map, just a question :slight_smile:
How open will the battelfield be? I mean, from the images i saw it, might get some bad vis block issues, especialy at the lake area. Or those houses in the background will be detail only?

@unf4z3d
Good old indy, he basacly did the same on our mates server too, when we were testing Capuzzo Airport.

it’s not a W:ET map but a terrain for Flight Gear, an open source flight simulator, different set of problems

Oh, i misread that part,I thought it was for ET :o
Once you are finished with it, show us too around here.


(IndyJones) #68

ahh, the FTP clan… it used to be nice, but some assholes takes a help as offensive… so bite me, one more time.

i wonder how much capuzoo will change, compared to february release.
it was using modified stock et textures.


(Pegazus) #69

Your help is not very nice

“i think noone should help him in this particular problem…”
"this one is worse than previous in my humble opinion."
Is this what you call “help” There are more comments by you like this. If you say it’s bad then explain why it’s bad.
“positive critism”


Edit: @Capuzoo
Well, Capuzzo has changed alot from that time, it’s ready to be released & tested if 2 Vo sounds are finished.
And about those modified stock et textures, i have you know that Sage and Me both worked on those, we have skills and knowladge how to make custom textures and from photosource :wink:


Edit again: it has not yet been released. The february one was not a release.


(unf4z3d) #70

ahemm, criticism?

sorry, spamming move and a bunch of other objective shit is completely useless. we know the objectives, we dont need someone to spam like crazy. We told you to keep quite, but you kept spamming.

some of our members may not be great, but hey, that doesn’t give you any right to bitch them out. If you had wanted to help, you shouldn’t of done it in an offensive way

I’m certain you would take me calling you a dickhead, not advice to change, but rather offence…


(IndyJones) #71

actually i was banned for pushing someone - and my intention was just so he can move/jump faster. it was that map with reactor. i didn’t mean to be rude or something…


(unf4z3d) #72

I’m not talking about your ban, i wasn’t there, im talking about you coming on in italy, and spamming your ass off till we alll left


(IndyJones) #73

you should say that they all left because map restart vote passed… funny, because they all voted ‘yes’.


(FireFly) #74

Well, well…Today I got back home from holiday after 3 weeks of traveling through southern Germany / North Italy when I found this interesting thread…

I’ve been reading all 4 pages of this thread and First of all I’m really disgusted by some individuals who are abusing this thread as a personal vendetta towards IndyJones. Even having Badman “cleaning up” your posts doesn’t justify the mud that’s been throwing around… Remember that hundreds if not over a thousand people will read your post… If you have something personal towards Indy use the "private messaging’ system instead of posting away on this thread. It isn’t what these forums were meant to be in the first place…

Secondly: I don’t really see what all the fuzz is about. Both sides are recreating an already existing map and argue about decompiling and the use of cod textures. 99% of all w:et players don’t give a F U C K about what is being said here on the SD forums: All they want is new maps to play: They will decide what map they will play…

this pm thing (although almost always recommended on forums by admins in such situations to protect the friendly atmosphere) is i dont like, because not only we become deprived from the fun, but u might have already seen, some iq champion already started harassing him with gtfo messages; etc…
lets do all the quarrels puclicly, so we can watch it xD!

+another reason; what we becoming deprived of, with the pms, is information.


(AlphaRed12) #76

personally i enjoy reading drama and flamefests :stuck_out_tongue:

Doesn’t everyone :D.
This looks like a very well put together recreation of the COD1 Carentan, I like it.


(Pande) #77

its actually the CoD2 Carentan, CoD 1 didn’t have the slanted roofs, gate, and moved MG42.

also, the lighting in CoD2 was more dark and overcast. In CoD1 it was sunny in that map, but as if it were about to rain.

For your information, I did the exact same thing Dutchman did:

I saw the generator and I found it useful, so I thought I’d like to share it too on our webpage. Now if you read correctly, it says:

© 2003 EasyRider ©mod by [SLUT] Shagileo

That MOD by me thing is just because I changed the default nickname into:
SLUT Clan.

I don’t know who EasyRider is, but his credit stood at the webpage I “took” it from, so I credited him.
Personally I don’t see any harm done, but if the original author would like me to remove it, I don’t see any problem in it.
I NEVER intended to be my product… :rolleyes:


(Nail) #79

so if I take your map and change the name, I can call it mine ?

ask me nice, I might let you leave it on your site, you WILL remove your name from it though


(shagileo) #80

Well as I said, I never called it mine.
I respect your vision and thank you for this nifty tool . My apologies if it caused you this much trouble, but I don’t think there’s any space left for it on our site.
