Ive started working on an eve conversion mod for endless space. This mod is all about blowing up our favorite space ships, as is customary in Eve Online. So far it has been coming along very well. Heres the main thread with screenshots.

For the ship models Im using triexporter to convert the real eve ships into a format endless space can use. Ive done some searching and found this dev comment stating CCPs policy on using models, textures and sound effects in mods for other games. The dev post was straight forward but also from 2008. Has this policy changed since then? I would like to have CCPs blessing before I consider releasing more than screenshots :) This will be a free mod with full credit given to CCP.

a) create a petition, the forums won't get you any official answers
b) if you make even a little bit of money off of it CCP won't allow it because of how copyright laws work, they HAVE to pursue every violation because if they don't they may lose their rights in the future

This mod sounds like an awesome idea. DBRB would be able to be in control of Supercaps again with no fear of losing alliance level assets.

Caps or sub caps he still whelps fleets :)

Maybe with this mod, goons can play on easy and have a more even fighting chance of beating N3 Lol

We've beat them 4 times in a row already.

As long as they still exist you haven't beaten them. Lol

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

Fighting back is more fun than not.

I'm not seeing why this is something to be proud of. I've done it and it doesn't make people happy.

So the archonfleet isn't a problem?

CCP will say nothing one way or the other, because they're waiting to see if you actually make a dime off this mod so that they can swoop in and sue you for millions afterward. If they speak too soon they might scare off their victim.
