Policy on using units for other mods?

[Lord Hamilton]

Hey everyone,

I was just wondering if anyone knows the Ruischi team's policy for using their units for other mods? Looks like Tchouk hasn't posted anything on TWC since July/August - not sure if a PM would get a response. I know I've seen their work in other mods. If credit is given to them, is it ok to use some of their stuff for other projects?

Thanks.

Usually a PM stating that you will use them is enough, if problems arise, you have proof of writing a message.

[Lord Hamilton]

thanks for the advice!

i think yes

[Armatus]

Yes I'm pretty sure if you are making a Total War mod, simply crediting them and sending them a pm would be acceptable, they've been very generous with so many mods hosted on TWC already it would be silly to think they would turn someone else down who was legitimately interested. The bad part is they probably won't respond to pm since they have moved on. I would attempt to contact them though.

I do know they were working on a community resource, if anyone has that link to the virtual museum of units.

what is that in substance? Have you some pictures about the packed elements?
You make me curious Armatus...

I tried to access the link to their high res models and it killed my browser, there was a software program you had to have installed to view the models in 3D.

They posted the link here in several places, it's probably no longer available.

Java I think? I know it worked for me.

[Armatus]

are you able to download the high poly models?

[Louis Lux]

I'm sure the museum is just for viewing.

I was the 1st that got writen permision to use Rusichi material.
Tchouk and Sargon-1 notified me that they were very happy from the axeptance of their work. They created this mod as a gift to th emodding community. Here is their 1st answer to my request more than a year ago.

Hi!

As long as credit is given, you're free to use and mod our stuff as you like.

Especially since your team does so much for the community!

Nottice the phrase "as long as credit is given"...
So this is the main policy of ussing Rusichi/Marka material.
Use their material as long as each modder gives the proper credit to this wonderfull team that its realy bad luck that are not active today!

Does anyone know if it was Lance and Ronin who did the Lithuanian units, or someone else?

Lithuanian units are property of Baltic TW and MADTAO .

[Murfmurf]

Thanks buddy

[Armatus]

You know the community aught to take over here and build a new Rusichi with what they left us.

[Murfmurf]

Had I the time I definitely would like to help with that, but I have a lot of work to do with the Westeros team atm. If anyone manages to get something concrete going though, chuck me a PM.

[Armatus]

And I will also gladly sign on with what limited service I can offer in the way of PR, research and art.

This is very generous, I might include some units into East of Rome.

Can I use these units for a project and just give credit, or do I have to formerly ask the creators to use them?

Its free to use with credit, AFAIK. The creators are no longer active so it's impossible to ask anymore. But I could be very wrong.
