I'm hopefully being paranoid here, but Big Bird's not using any of our stuff for his Solstheim is he?

Yes he is, the bridge at frostmouth is ours and the towers are from Riften (as well as other things). It's just retexed though so he could replace it pretty easily with the vanilla oblivion stuff.

I hope he's not using my Solstheim heightmap though... that would be pretty annoying.

From the screens he's used one of the special chairs, the arches and totems from around Dragon Wood, and you now say some towers and the bridge (I knew the bridge wasn't from stock ob but I didn't know it was from here either). And nope he's not using your heightmap because in his thread on ESF he's been asking for a heightmap.
I guess he can't do any harm if he removes the Skyrim stuff from his mod. Hopefully lol.

Darn it, he is using our meshes. So I guess we have to make sure he gets rid of them Mad

He doesn't know how to make good mods, from what I've seen the Height Map looks terible (it is not our Height Map, or Lightwave's one). But what he has done is actually illegal by using our assets, so if he doesn't remove the things from the mod that are ours we can threaten him with legal action.

Edit: It seems the issue has been cleared up. (and I must say that he is a complete an utter N00B.)

Sorry for 'butting in' on your discussion, I was directed to this thread on an unrelated matter and checked out Big Bird's thread. I reported it to the moderators and got it locked (link). :D

Hopefully he'll give up now, or at least change the assets to normal Oblivion ones before posting a second thread.

Thanks Razorwing! =)

Hmm... we might want to consider protecting our assets in a way like the one ST implemented recently.

Alright, so whats our final consensus on the matter? He can use the Ice Caves, but is he allowed to use the others? BTW who will contact the mods to unlock his thread?

I say he should work with us, if he wants to use the stuff.

As far as I'm concerned he can only use the ice caves. Unless he works with us he can't use the other stuff that were made specifically for this mod.

Well he's only 14 or 13 or something so I guess he just didn't know.

It's in one of the stickys in the BSF Modding Forum (both of them), and BTW I was 14 this time last year (though he is 13, but still).

Is this cause for alarm:

http://www.tessource.net/files/file.php?id=10749#gallery

and

http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index....ic=683123&st=20

They appear to be progressing quite fast. Probably due to thePOSTALdude's work as I can't imagine Bigbird managing anything like that on his own.

Bigbird is a Noob, it is most diffently all Postaldude's work, and even then I still isn't that great.

Perhaps if we merged it could be better? Considering thePOSTALdude seems to be a talented guy and BigBird doesn't seem to be doing much (fortunately), what I thought is we could offer them a spot on our forum here and offer them access to all our Solstheim stuff; models, literature, quests etc. If thePOSTALdude and whoever else joined it would effectively give us a little team to work on Solstheim, we could still have input (and they'd likely use our quests and ideas over their own) and exercise some degree of creative control (which of course would be one of the conditions).

Thoughts?

I dunno, my biggest qualm is that from the screenshots of Solstheim I've seen it seems really small, as I recall ours is a lot bigger, also would we just keep going with the stuff that Big Bird had created (ints and all that) or wait till we have proper Skaal models?

Maybe their interiors could be placeholders until our architecture is done. Perhaps if we caught them soon enough they'd be willing to give up any heightmap work they've done so far and use ours but I doubt it =/
