Hi!
Now, I'm going to be as nasty as Spiral... I'm going to give you guys a trailer to a new SP level that is in the progress making. I think I formulated that right... Anyway... *Clears throat exitedly*

http://edward.leuf.org/JK/GOBs/Trailer.zip
WARNING! SPOILERS!

Now, no date set... I think all levels are complete. Apart from one. That one level needs more work. What's missing? More of a maze... More doors, more dead ends, a tricky way to the exit... And archi is lousy... One of my weak-points... And yes, textures are stolen from JO, but hay! You did say once you were tired of JK textures, and this is what I got. Anyone willing to make some for me?

/Edward

PS.
Recommended that you have 3D-accel on, but will work without. Treat it as a Mod to see custom text.

It's questionable whether Massassi will host your level if it has illegal material in it, i.e. textures from JO.

Absolutely awesome!

I've been wondering what you've been working on for so long, Edward.

Just replace those JO textures (Mat Replace works best) and you're good to go.

And if you need a beta tester, grismath@nmgoh.com .

Gah... all I have is MotS and sometimes that's really frustrating... What's the trailer like?

how did you get MotS to install then O_o

<Genki> oh, where are you going, with beards all a waggin, no knowin no knowin what bring dear Mr. Baggins, and Balin, and Dwalin, here down in the vally Ah ha!

As for Massassi posting illegal content... yes, they do. Very often. Bland repetitive texturing and environments. Please god change that star texture, either increase the res, or change to a higher res texture. Space just ain't that empty, nor does it have freakishly huge stars.

It is about an Ugnaut who's going to take out the Emperor. But there's only one problem...
ONE!!!? Try an Empire Full!

Sound like you missed the point :rolleyes.

You DO understand that, when you distribute the textures, you are distributing those materials to people who did not pay for JO? Software companies don't like this, (and neither does Massassi) and therefore if you keep these textures in your level Massassi will not host your file...

Just a fair warning... other thn that this thing sounds cool, gonna check it out right now.

Heh, this looks pretty cool... the only shortcomings I can see is the unfortunately rather bland archi and texturing .'/

But those're some great cogs and FX...

I gotta say this frankly, please forgive me: You gotta work on the archi dude... alot.

Custom 16-bit textures should help as well, but the archi needs help.

Btw... was that a snowball the emperor hold?

"But there is one problem..."

What starts playing, is 'Revolutions Intro' from Jean-Michel Jarre's album 'Destination Docklands'. It fit the mood somehow, and the camera somehow reminded me of the opening of the Docklands-concert video.. O_O

For the level though... The cogs were pretty cool and the whole idea seems funny. But the architechture makes me cringe. It seriously needs lots of work.

Other than that, keep on going.

The only reason anything with illegal content is on Massassi is because we didn't know about it at the time of posting. When we discover illegal content, we have, and we do take down those levels.

If you plan on having the level posted, change the textures.

The only way you can take textures from one game to another is if you are going from JK to MotS, or JO to JA.

I would like to see then the written copyright permissions for any level which uses a copyrighted brand name, character, story, etc...
Some examples of current mods which technically would need express written consent for the use of copyrighted material in order to be released are TMU and JKSG-1.

In the case of the SG-1 mod, it would be highly unlikely, because it would technically give LucasArts unlimited rights to create anything they desire using copyrighted SG-1 material.

3. My Level does not contain any material that infringes any trademarks, copyrights, protected works, publicity, proprietary, or other rights of any third party or of LEC.
7. By distributing or permitting the distribution of any New Levels, all creators or owners of any trademark, copyright, or other right, title or interest therein grant to LEC an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, sub-licensable right to distribute the New Level by any means(whether now known or hereafter invented), and to create and distribute by any means (whether now known or here-after invented) derivative works thereof, and to charge for the distribution of such New Level or such derivative work, with no obligation to account to any creators or owners of the New Level in any manner.

I don't particularly remember JO or JA's statements concerning such things, which is why I'm not listing them.

Another fine example would be the DBZ TC (They try to avoid this by putting a disclaimer against FUNimation on their main webpage, however, as it is, wouldn't prevent government organizations from pursuing them, or protect the downloading of said content from Massassi. Or other mods for DBZ. Or Lord of the Rings mods, many of the available skin packs, the Star Wars movies themselves and the prequels, etc. If you don't think Massassi posts copyrighted material, you are sadly deluded.

The only complaints anyone makes about copyrights are when it comes from taking items from one JK game to another.

So I'd like to say, you people should get off the high horse about textures from one game to another, or persecute every single copyright violation (which I highly doubt you'd desire).

As for the trailer, I had a couple comments. The lighting when we see the Ugnaught is rather nice. It's pretty decent at the end title, however, I think that title could use a bit darker lighting, and better textures.

What's the level name?

------------------
Try not, do; or do not.

WHY THE HECK DO YOU CARE!!! its a game, no one will sue you for making a model from their movie/ book/ etc. Even if they did, your not making any money off it, and all you are doing is help to spread their popularity. I dont really think its that much of a deal, unless its so blatantly obvious copyright infringement that its pitiful. Besides, how IS making a mod/ skin like that infringing on copyrights. I could list many skins/mods that do that. All you are doing is making the game more enjoyable for yourselves!

Didnt raven said, any of thier made game content can be used upon any other game? IE, wolfenstien models/textures to use in JKA.. I do belive they had said that..

Yes, they will. People have been contacted before by Lec to stop such activities.

And also, LKOH_SniperWolf, Massassi does NOT CONDONE breaking any of those laws. I should know, I am on the staff for crying out loud. I don't think I'm deluded.

I think, SniperWolf, you've failed to realize what it means to be on the staff.

Brian has, by putting CoolMatty on the staff, implied that he trusts CoolMatty to enforce the rules that he has set for this site. He has implied that he believes CoolMatty has the proper reasoning abilities to accept and reject levels based upon Brian's criteria.

He has implied no such thing about you. This isn't an issue of a "high horse." This is an issue of the fact that CoolMatty has volunteered his time and been put in place by Brian, the owner of this site, to manage submitted levels. You have not.
