This mod is free, and none of it may be used for profit

original and you contact me in advance

************Credits****************
This is all my own work
The knowledge I needed to make this that did not come from painstaking experimentation was gleaned from the Subsim forum and
dissection of a multitude of mods downloaded from there
I used Silent 3ditor and notepad and SH4 Mission Editor only to create this mod, and I am indebted to Skwas for s3d in
particular.


The ships used in that mod is the base lines of my playable ships. For now, those are the only ships that are going to be used as the ball get rolling. So let me be clear, If it's in the stock 1.4 game....That's all that going to be uploaded on my end at this time.

Here's my take on using wevbarker2011 models as he states in his README.

1. You can freely use them as long as you aren't asking for money with your project.

2. He asks to be contacted in advance of your intentions, and of course, he asks for you to give him the appropriate credit.

Simple enough.

I see he's not been an active member with SubSim since last posting in August 2012. So, send him a PM and give it a reasonable amount of time for him to respond. If he doesn't respond to your intentions.....do as he states: Feel free however, to further develop or use it in another piece of work.

As I pointed out about modding in my other post, he relied on other folks work to help him finish his mod: .....Knowledge.....was gleaned from the Subsim forum and dissection of a multitude of mods.

Whose mods did he dissect? Who knows?! If he didn't give credit to them....well, no one is the wiser. Like I said, we share knowledge with each other, what's important is to give credit where credit is due.

the way I see it, all you need is the permission from the person who released the mod and posted it for download.

this person already had permission to share this work so he has "proxy" to give permission for the work to be used and you don't have to "go to the source" for everything in the mod.

I would still give credits to all I know to give credits to just as common politeness
