    This gorgeous, original work is not "private". It's called "08 Dancing Girl" and is by Zeo, the wonderful modder behind "House on Riverside", et al, and is available through his blog. Google it.

     

    Thanks, I found it. You just earned a kudo ^^ Cheers!

    And I'm confused by "try to ask KJ and get the reply it's a private Tera rip. ^^" I'm not sure who KJ is and are you saying it is a Tera rip? (If so two points for me) and that it's private? :( If it's private then sad day.

     

    I'm not sure if it's private or not but I'm sure it's a rip, which is why you shouldn't ask about it here. KJ is short for KJKirimi who is a frequent visitor of this thread and the one who made that screenshot.

    Hey there, detectives. This was posted several pages ago by someone wanting to know the hair, I'm interested in the armor for my stealth character.

     

    For some reason my intuition is telling me this is a tera rip. Looks similar to other armors from that game I have. x_x

    If that's the case could someone at least tell me the name? Then I may be able to find it myself. :\

     

    That doesn't really look like a stealth armor to me(too much metal) but you can try to ask KJ...

     

    I'm interested in this armor. I have a strong feeling it's a private work but I'm asking anyway in the hopes that someone can give me a name.

    How to make a working class portrait

    in Mod troubleshooting

    Posted · Edited by Moire

    I'm referring to the little portrait that pops up when you mouse over your class' name in your character menu. It seems impossible to make your own picture. What I did was to extract the files from textures.bsa, including the sizes for menu50 and menu80, then I put my own picture over it in photoshop(with all sizes), saved as dds and applied it in the CS, but nothing comes up when I mouse over my class. I've tried googling this for a guide but there seem to be no guide who can tell me how to make it work. So what I want to know is, is it possible and how to do it?

    I get the impression that this thread is meant to be a simple Q&A style and I dislike following norms but I will try to abide by that from now on. Also, I think you should just ignore posts like my previous post. It would clean it up a bit. I don't mean to be rude but it's better to leave the responsibilities to the moderators.

    Ripped content and the copyright laws

    in Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Moire

    Also Dark0ne (as far as I know has not taken over the world) can not himself change copyright laws. His job is to protect this site and also the people associated with it. As such allowing content like this would be disastrous for the site and no doubt his wallet should a company/artist come and want to exercise those copyright laws.

     

    I have stated my opinion before on the screenshot issue with ripped content and will not do so again here, but I completely understand the mindset behind it. Far easier for him to not allow the content, links to the content and wide-ranging discussion of the content than to micromanage this issue and look at every post and picture over the thousands that are here.

     

    This appears to be something that may bother you a great deal. I don't think anything is going to change here, Moire....you may want to let this one go for your sanity's sake. Otherwise you may want to begin petitioning your local lawmakers.

     

    :thumbsup:

     

    edit: for spelling error

     

    You are right. It's best to let it go because now I realize what a waste of time and energy it is to even question it. I'm going to blame my argumentative side. We all have one, don't we? ;) Thanks for clearing that up and making my day easier.

    Ripped content and the copyright laws

    I don't think it's a shortcoming in the law for the owners of artistic content to be able to determine how it's used.

    You don't mind for your content, and that's great, but not everyone will feel the same about theirs.

    If some company, who paid artists to come up with art for their game don't want it to be publicly distributed for free, what's wrong with that? Some companies, like GSC who makes STALKER, think there is at least no harm to them, and maybe some benefit, to allow it, so they do. Which is their call, as it should be.

     

    It is my opinion that if I pay for a game, I have the right to use it as I want if it doesn't hurt the creator or the publisher. Giving people free access to the game will hurt them, because that would make them lose income, so that's piracy but if I take an armor from that game and give it to other people, it doesn't hurt anyone, because no one makes money by converting their content to other games. That would just be stupid. I'm not against copyright. I'm just against the limits it puts up for the user but I guess it's a complicated issue with no perfect solution that makes everyone happy.

     

    @David Brasher

     

    You are right in a way. The solution to that would be if the authors could choose if their books should be allowed in libraries or not but then most authors would say no and our libraries would be pointless, which might be harmful to education and culture. Every department is different and should be treated different in the law. I don't know all the details about libraries rights so excuse me if I said something wrong. I'm assuming they have rights to buy what books they want.

    Ripped content and the copyright laws

    I didn't start this topic to provoke but to discuss the current situation with ripped content so try to keep your tone civil. To begin with I can't see any harm in people using content from other games in Oblivion, not to the games or to the creators of the content. You don't play WoW or Aion just because there is an armor in it that you like. You play it because it has good gameplay and graphics, or because it provides opportunities that you can't get in other games. I know the copyright rules are there to protect the creator's work but right now it's just in the way it seems. I see many people here who get in trouble because of it. Don't you think the laws/rules have to be adjusted a bit to benefit "The innocent user"? It's actually possible to protect the work by saying you are only allowed to use it to modify your own game or other people's games but you are not allowed to share it with a company and all companies needs copyright. That would be enough.

     

    If I created an armor or a hairstyle for a game I wouldn't mind if someone wanted to use it in another game but I would mind if they tried to sell it to a company. I know it won't make a difference talking about it here but it's interesting to realize the shortcomings in modern law and it's more of a theoretical discussion than trying to change the world, but I still hope someone in a high position will see it and start thinking.

    That's ripped from World of Warcraft.

     

    Don't even ask about it on here, we don't support ripping content.

     

    Then the screenshot should be removed or it's hypocracy. Letting people post images of ripped content gives the impression that you support it, if you haven't read the rules and a lot of people don't bother.

    what about these can someone identify and link them

     

    That one is from The Cursed armor, a very adult and weird quest mod. You can get it here, if you find the download link. I've heard he's working on a new version so you might have to wait until release to get the new armor model.

     

    The table is from a pose mod called CTAddpose Hentai.

    How to use Bain wizards?

    in Mod troubleshooting

    Posted · Edited by Moire

    I don't know really. I just make a simple BAIN and right click it in Wrye Bash but this readme makes me confused. "Once you have installed the prerequisites, download from the TES Nexus page OBGE Liquid Water. If you have Wrye Bash version 292 installed, use the included Bain Conversion File by Lojack to simplify installation. Otherwise, follow all of the following steps to install correctly"

     

    I can ask in the mod thread but it will take some time until I get a reply there.

    Overpowered skeleton guardians

    in Mod troubleshooting

    Posted · Edited by Moire

    Hehe, I don't mind that much if it's one of 20 mobs or so but these skeleton's are very annoying. They don't do that much damage but their hitpoints seems to be way off. I was fighting a level 16 skeleton guardian and since they have 170 hp at lvl 6 that would mean around 400 hp? These guys had at least 1000! They are tougher than a skeletal champion at the same level.
