I do not believe in keepin what I have worked on, certainly I can understand the stand of the major mods in being very hesitant to share their work, yet it can be both boon or bane for them and for us all.
I cannot and will not ask Goth to work for BI, he and I are already sharing each others work as it is, as rivals but as equals, I believe this is a better way of working together, I have asked his help several times and received it so I only see it fitting that if he asks my help I give it, not as a trade but as a matter of course. If ever he asks to work with BI, certainly I will not refuse but I certainly will not in any way coerce him to. I am actually using a lot of stuff which I copied from Goths Mod in IBFG 5, and I will soon release a skinpack that will use Goths reskins in IBFG 5
You may soon see that Ages of Darkness: Total War (formerly Arb's custom BI) may also be using some of my skins, as well as AR's (already) this again I feel to be a great working relationship; as rivals, but equals.
I actually try to promote these two mods whenever I promote IBFG (in mod lists, etc.) even if all the skins were the same (which they usually are not), these three Mods all have a different approach, a different way of playing. Everyone gets to choose which gamestyle fits his/her own preferences .
I disagree with some of the approaches these other mods take, just as much as I get ideas from them, but certainly I accept that some people would feel it better that way, as I am sure some people would favor the approach we take in IBFG but some would not. I believe in healthy constructive competition and sharing, not in destructive competition and exclusiveism (is there such a word?)... I believe between the three of us (IBFG, Goth's Mod, AOD:TW) we would be making the ultimate RTW:BI mod. :wink:

I will second what ramon says, we have both benefited from each others work, Goths all factions mod has benefited greatly from ramons work and i hope IBGF has benefited from mine.
Ramon and i co-operate without actually producing mods that clash, whilst both mods are set in the same era and use alot of each others work they are suprisingly different.
I like Ramon am more interested in everybody getting the best they can out of BI, sharing is the biggest factor in this and I feel flattered that such a great mod as this one contains some of my work, without a doubt mine would not be the success it is without Atilla and Ramons work, I have learnt alot about modding from both of them .

Thanks Guys
