Peter, nice screen, nice plane! :salute:
Can you give us directions to use the free vc in this model? It´s just a ctrl+c ctrl+v or you have to edit something (Besides the vc entry in the aircraft.cfg of course)?

Thanks!
 
Hi guys just saw this post sorry, I will post all the directions, this is a payware model but I added a freeware VC to it, as said I will post a "how too" or if I don't tomorrrow then I will PM you both!

Both FPS, Flight model are spot on, really nice I added the Rob Richardson VC from his freeware version! As can be seen this was May last year but I still have the knowledge on how to do it!

Piracy in reverse ? adding a freeware VC
 
Thanks Peter! I didn´t see the date of your post, sorry!!! I thought it was posted yesterday!! :jump:
But if you have the procedure to do this, i´m very interested.

Thanks!

How in anyway could this be contrived as piracy I have not in anyway made anyfiles available or done anything that would go against either SDesigns or Robs wishes or copyrights, this was done as no VC is yet available for this particular model?
 
Because you use another persons work which is freeware to put a vc in a payware model that does not have one.

I just installed Rob's VC into his AI version, it took about 10 minutes but I am not about to say how, the fact that you will not be uploading his files merely telling people how to do it is still piracy.

Get on to the sellers to get a vc done as you have bought it knowing there is no vc.

Rob has produced good models with hard work for free why not use his Vampire complete.
 
I do use Robs Vampire and think it's great but the SDesign one is also great and showing someone how to modify there own models is not piracy I'm merely explaining how to do it and after that it's your own choice whether you want to try it or not!

Agreed. If there isn´t a explict statement in the readme file that comes with the airplane saying about this, i can´t see the problem. You have both the planes in a proper way, if you mix then ... what´s the matter? It´s just point of view ...
 
My apologies if I stirred a pot. In my question "how to get the VC" - it was my understanding that it was available as a later component from the actual model, in a separate download - all from Suprunov - freeware, in the sense that he wasn't going to charge for the VC if you had already bought the model. That was my understanding - I was asking to confirm if that was the case.

DL, there is no need now for the payware vendors to supply a VC which as I understand takes the most time to do for a modeler to do, all they need to supply is instructions of how to filch a freeware version.

As far as I could see Suprunov is unlikely to release their own vc.

For me it is a matter of principle.

Yeah I understand that one is in development however it has not been released as of yet!
 
To quote a very wise man:

"You buy it, it's yours. As long as you don't distribute any part of it, modified or not, you have the right to any dang thing you want. You can even print out all the one's and zero's onto a ream of paper and make origami if that's what trips your trigger."

The same goes for free-ware, if you mod it for your OWN USE and do not distribute or disseminate your mod then it is NOT piracy.

Now play nice children.

Wombat, just asking, if I were to give the A2A Spitfire a tailhook, to that one could land on a period carrier, would I be allowed to share my tailhook settings with other on this forum? :salute:
 
Personally, I can't see why not.
I believe there is a huge difference between sharing your own work on a private basis and 'Piracy'.
It would be (IMHO) best shared via PM.
I will see if I can clarify the situation with the older and wiser Admins, but it might be best to avoid going 'public' for the moment.

Please note, this is my own personal opinion.
