Notice: Pending mods now under review!

from GalCiv2 Forums
Mavx and myself have finally been granted library control access, so the backlog of pending mods will now be processed through as we can get to them. It seems some people have complained about not getting any notice about rejections, so just to be safe I'll try to post the mods here that get approved/rejected.

For the record, about the only things that *should* get rejected are obscene or blatant copyright/IP infringement (i.e., photgraphs of actors, soundtracks, video clips, etc.). If it is anything you created yourself or got from public domain/open source sources, it should be fine.

Also, please do not include unchanged graphics, etc, that are arleady in GC2 in your mods (such is just extra downloading for nothing, and potentially makes GC2 content available to those who have not bought the game). In most cases you can simply reference the existing files and it'll work the same.

Okay then... the moderator has decided to deny me the CoSH upload in its current shape and content.

I understand the fact that "Celebrities or Actors" must NOT be included in anything locally maintained here. I'd even go as far as to say; bring each & all of them directly @ me, the forbidden plagiarizer and thief of copyrighted stuff. Kay, i also can feel their horrible pain when they look at their soooo poor bottom lines; Hollywood as a whole will bank out in the multi-millions of profit just next week alone. Straight out of consumers deep pockets. They pay for their tickets, good for those who want that as entertainment.

But, i'm a gamer with Sci-Fi edges burning to share the entire matter to the masses, as a mod for GCII and beyond.

I could always modify the whole package with simple drawings (widely distributed and sold by another sort of thieves, eBay, posters, memorabilia, you name it!) PUBLICLY available and free to use. But, it wouldn't be nearly as accurate as it has to be.
See, i believe in truth and fairplay.

One more thing though - if you absolutely must prevent me from packaging what *I* really want into CoSH then there's plenty here already which is in the same case. Won't name any, won't even point fingers at anybody. All i know is that THEY got permission for some pictures, multiple races, robots, animated, Hitch, Faction, Witch, Babylonium, sand Dunes, Turtles and Transformation (etc, etc...) things waaaay above whatever was in CoSH for approval.

There's always a solution to host it outside SD, like the Treks and Star-Wars (btw, did you know that if you combined Spielberg's & Lucas personal fortunes, Amnesty international and/or any other Human Rights organizations could provide food, shelter to the 100,000's of real people (whom don't play in galaxies, what's a TeeVee) suffering from famine!)

So, Hollywood doesn't want to get screwed up of their precious C-a-SH for some free indirect sort-of publicity small MOD to a PC game in the form of C-o-SH... give them my phone number, my address, my name, and insist on sending anybody here in Laval to further discuss very important matters.

eMail me if you have any comments to add. In the meantime, i certainly will keep on developing (and submitting it with alterations) this stuff and possibly contact someone (iMod productions, etc) and other places to host it.

Sorry if it had to come to this, but i seriously believe you have a huge maintenance round to do in the Libraries to justify denying Cosh.

Feel free. The rejection isn't a judgement of the mod's quality, and I'm sure they'd be glad to provide hosting.

The rules are plainly posted on the upload page (and in the OP of this thread). Granted some moderators have interpreted them a bit more loosely than others (and some IP owners are historically more litigous than others). But I didn't make the rules, so I'm not going to second guess them.

It's not about squashing the little guy or doing the movie industry's bidding, it's about protecting ourselves; we can be held legally responsible for anything we allow to be hosted on the library. You may not be afraid of lawsuits against your person, but companies have to be a bit more careful in such matters.

Until then, thanks anyway.

Bump!

So, i've been working hard at X-Worlds for about three weeks now and i feel the currently uploaded version 05-B is reasonably "complete" enough to suggest some approval(s) by whoever is in charge - soon (or faster), please.?.!. ;)

I may have to start a more regular pace of modifications/upgades... case in point, possibly a weekly update should be okay -- say, somethin' like every Sunday evenings or on Mondays the latest. At any rate, i might get to a 05-X number before January!!

Thanks, Kryo... for the approval of the "current" version of X-Worlds.

Although, i already have plenty more to add to the zip - but, i will wait until this Sunday to wrap it all up in a more complete upgrade.

Btw, the last Major race is; S.H.A.D.O from the 80's TV-show with Ed Stryker & gang, SkyNet (no relation with the Terminator series at all), sweet single-shot Interceptors, SDI and a Moon base (guess where their 'indirect' Homeplanet is) aiming to contain a full scale UFO-Invasion by mysterious Aliens! ;)
How about Spectrum and Captain Scarlet against the Mysterons: may very well fit another Minor slot, easily.

Lots of customization with planets & APOC races still to do. But, i'm getting there - progressively.

Enjoy.

I know that the "Holidays period" has just started and that most people at SD are most probably taking a well deserved break from work... but i haven't stopped developping X-Worlds and just uploaded a **MUCH** more complete version (05-C).

Please approve it asap! ;)

About the video clips:

Let's say I wanted to replace the video you get when you first successfully invade a planet with WW2 stock footage. If it was public domain, would it be approved?

Yes, that'd be fine.

Yes, that'd be fine.



Thanks. I'll take some computer classes, and with a little luck, you should see the mod!

Hi Kryo and/or anybody else currently assigned to files approval tasks,

The new version of X-Worlds(05-D) has been uploaded along with two more files.
I had to alter the packaging method for efficiency reasons and thus, pulled out the Planets and "Movies/stills" from the main mod archive.

This way, i was able to create some room for more directly related assets such as surface buildings/icons/queries & dedicated techno-trees (eventually) while sticking to a coherent structure for the races' essential data & graphics. I'm also scheduling some startup ships&fleets for another stand-alone zip - possibly for the next uploading step.

Lots of work done - and still to do! :)

Please, approve these as soon as you can.
Thanks, again...

Hey... that was real fast!
Tks for the swift approval of the above three files - my friends. ;)
