    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.


    This is ten percent luck,
    Twenty percent skill,
    Fifteen percent concentrated power of will,
    Five percent pleasure,
    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

    how you know it ? you spoke with it's real maker ?


    anyways, who would really know or care within CF from where those screenies are... pff

    All were made public on a public site... why would they want copyrights or something...
    if so, you can't use ANY picture arround internet then why to try it :P

    If you create something on your own -you have a copyright. That its public does not mean you can use it. At least the german law is very clear on this. And i and OP as well are not concerned if anyone else see it different or how the law in other countries are. If you want to use anything in a mod that you havent created on your own than you need the permission of the owner. And as OP is responsible for this place (called SWAT) against any authorities here in germany he has to obey those laws. No matter if he likes it or not.


    I think Spiky could eventually tell you more about this :) But i am not wrong on this anyway... Sooner or later i think you will understand this as normally other countries have similar laws

    still... can't you manage to obtain the permission from its creator to use it ? You used ships from X3 to make new CF ships so it must be possible to ask for permission on ppl's stuff...

    All solved easely... OP only has to do a picture by himself:
    Copy-Paste-add "OP" on red on the lower bottom.


    Done ! your new wallpaper is ready for use :D


    Well, anyways ya I understand it theoretically, but if the creator isn't even alive or something... or doesn't care himself as was 1 play time of many, wtf


    Anyways, CF is since before, older than X3... if X3 has something CF has THEY copied us, not us copied them :D

    maybe few models... but the 1.8 project is older than X3 :D (3 years...) well, more or less :P


    Still they were different self made models.... only inspired on them a bit :D


    Now the worry is about getting permissions from images... pff

    ok back to the topic now:


    progress:


    the crash issue that we tried to solve during the past 3 weeks got fixed (it was the main reason for the server crashes)
    during the past (meanwhile) 26 hours this has not appeared


    unfortunatly a new error appeared (dunno why)
    im sure that we will find a solution for it soon




    next to that i was working on game improvements
    such as the cityscapes...


    but also stuff that has influence on the gameplay
    1. nebulas will not only slow down your normal ship engines - now also your cruise engines are slower
    2. there has been a small explosion fix on capital ships
    3. there was an small effect update which will raise the visibility a bit
    4. NPCs will use countermeasures now
    5. a multiplayer account can hold up to 10 chars
    6. various improvements on the opensp version have been done
    7. the 2nd gmg faction + 2 other administrative factions are not visibible anymore on your rep list
    8. there have been done some adjustments to the singleplayer storyline - players now have more time to make money, gain a good lvl and buy the best ships
    9. a new rankset is getting introduced
    10. the hostile inner core systems will contain at certain points repair droids that slowly can repair damages


    futhermore i am thinking about 2 more additions
    1. NPC wingmen
    2. reorganizing the train market
    -> here i did some calculations already
    in sirius i would allow trains and transports to moor at 50 (big) stations while military ships can moor at all stations
    to avoid super traderoutes and fast money making the goods at these 50 stations are getting limited to a certain amount
    the calculations for coalition space will be done tomorrow
    additionally to that the equipment that can be mount on transports will be limited

    Wow, that's a really awesome update list, especially like the char number upgrade.


    Let us know if anything needs particular testing, in terms of these train trade routes. Brilliant!

    hm, I know it crashed yesterday while I was in Venn, so the no crashes statement isn't entirely true

    right - and i actually said nothing about no crashes
    i just said that the main crash issue is solved


    there are 2 more which we still need to fix
