|  | Time for another headsup - Site News Posted by: Pille on 11-11-2009 @ 13:43 |  | This News Item has been viewed 54 times! Hey everyone,
It has been some time since the latest news regarding the site came in, so I think it is time for another heads-up on what's going on around here. These kind of news items will soon be posted on a monthly base in shape of a "CoHFiles Insider", similar to what you know from the network but more site specific.
A new face in our rows
Yeah so it is time to welcome a new guy! Recently you have seen his name under a couple of file reviews, which was his "trial & error" time. This time has passed and he can be considered a fine addition to our 3-guys-team. Therefor, please give a warm welcome to Lint who will be taking care of your files and news on CompanyOfHeroesFiles!
The situation with the polls and votes
As you know, this is an issue which has bugged many over the last months, and the reason why we did not change the polls around here much is simply that we saw no point in giving you another white-page item. There finally is news about that though which is taken from the actual network debate, saying the core bug which has been causing this and which was so hard to track down will be fixed in a matter of days. There is hope on the horizon 
That's it - for now at least. I will be waiting until some stuff regarding the staff backend is fixed before trying new projects to improve the site, but I promise you will find out about those soon enough. Stay tuned and thank you for reading this!

If we initiated a "mappers help mappers" program, would you participate?

...is to support mappers (and of course modders too) who are new to the content creation of Company of Heroes. The most likely option seems to create an outsourced forum (which doesn't provide a problem for me at all) where everyone from the community could sign up and exchange experience with World Builder and whatever other tools you may be using.
To get to the only negative aspects in this, I don't suppose most here would mind signing up separately, however if this gets realized it will be connected with costs for me. You do not need to worry, the service would be provided for free, but I do need a clear vote on wether to realize this or not. If you don't want to participate please be honest and state so, because I do not want to throw my money out the window for an inactive site.
Thank you for your participation!
I will join!
I will join, i can answer to any questions about making maps.
I will join
i am all for a site to help mappers and moders but if it will cost out of pocket to do .
two questions will have to be asked
1 can it be recouped.
2 can the adds sustain another site
that is all
I think you misunderstood my first post, for the members this will be absolutely cost- and advert-free. I have a vacant life-long vBulletin-license and a rented server which I pay for monthly, the only additional costs for me would come in regarding the setup of a domain.
So to get this cleared, there will be no costs or advertisements of any kind for the members, goes all out of my pockets
Hi, I can help with the world builder , I will Join , It would also help if the Invitation is extended to Skinners(2D) and people with Object Editor ..It would reach everyone bottom up .
Regards
funnyme
The forum would welcome everyone
i like the answer you gave that is wonderful to read. So with that said this would be very helpful for myself (and all mappersmodders/and skinners) for i have enough problems of my own using those darn programs. so when can we start nagging to get it started. heheheh
As soon as I've seen enough to be certain this can work out.
This poll will be open until next Saturday, any more thoughts on this?

|  | What do you think of our Network. - Network News Posted by: GOODY on 11-09-2009 @ 06:33 - Source: FileFront |  | This News Item has been viewed 19401 times! We are always looking for feedback from members and staff about the service we provide here on the Network. Sometimes this feedback is given in some very strange places instead of direct to us and as a result is either missed completely or mistaken for bitching at something else. To combat that we are opening the floor upto everyone to say what they think about the Network both good and bad.
This is a Network wide post so if you do wish to discuss a specific site then say which site you are referring to.
This will remain open for 1 week and at the end of that week a select few will be invited into our Vent server to discuss it further. This will give direct access to the NA's along with our managers who will be there to answer questions. This may then be recorded and made available to download.
As with any debate on this scale there are rules. These rules must be observed or your post will be deleted and in extreme cases you may be banned for the duration of the debate.
The rules
1) Observe all standard Network rules.
2) Be concise in your posts. Simply saying something sucks or I agree is not going to have your opinion noticed.
3) Post as much info as you can to put your point across and if possible include a example.
4) Be polite to other members even if you do not agree with them.
5) Be patient when waiting for a reply if you ask a question. We don't have all the answers but we will do our best to find them for you. |  |   |

|  | Voting Issue + Comments - Site News Posted by: Pille on 10-15-2009 @ 14:42 |  | This News Item has been viewed 1262 times! Hello everyone.
I have watched this more or less silently so far because I share your feelings regarding the situation with the voting and other bugs. However, I will be blunt, it has been taken too far. Modifications, maps and other parts of the site have by now been spammed regarding the voting issue, downgraded, and partially already lead to bans as apparently voting is so important for some that it throws all good manners overboard when it's not working.
Most of these comments are like "I would give you a 9/10 if I could vote", "why can I still not vote" etc etc, and it really is enough now. I've tried it with a funny approach in the poll but even that was abused by a few. So we will now take a serious approach to it.
If you have questions regarding the voting issue, you can ask them here in this news item, or in our community forums. Posting about this further in the POTD, other news items, the polls, info pages, or files, will result in a comment ban of not less than one week. Repeadiatly bringing it up can and will result in a permanent loss of comment privileges.
I am just as annoyed as most of you are about the bugs and the fact I have to put up with them in my daily work. You do not need to rub it under everyone else's noses all the time, we are all affected equally.

Dawn of War: Dark Crusade Firestorm over Kronus mod
Finally, after working on it for over half a year, the FoK mod team presents you the latest, shiniest, best FoK release there has ever been. Firestorm over Kronus (FoK) is a modification for the Dawn of War RTS by Relic Entertainment. A closer-to-Tabletop gaming experience with modified gameplay, win conditions, models and tech trees. Introducing an Army Painter with randomised models (i.e. you won't see the same model twice if you view a unit more than once) - this feature is only partly implemented at this stage. An improved and extended UI that allow a truly Tabletop-range of squad choices, abilities and upgrades.

Star Wars Battlefront 2: Recon Trooper's New Empire Side Mod
This side mod, by Recon Trooper, is a set of mostly visual changes for the stock Imperial side. The changes themselves are a very odd assortment, and it might be more appropriate to call this a collection of random assets from people rather than a true "sides mod," since it seems like most changes (retextures, models) are simply things other people made and the author downloaded and slapped together.

Star Wars Battlefront 2: Mos Eisley Spaceport
There's a lot to see here, and it is of course best summed up by simply downloading the map and trying it out. What's most interesting about this map is the talented blending of stock assets with custom assets (the map is populated by a majority of the latter, although most are so well-done you wouldn't guess it at first glance). You can walk into an innocuous small building and all of the sudden find yourself in an underground pathway leading to several hangars and walking you under a large part of the map (this part specifically was probably my favorite), such is the level of detail.

Jedi Knight III: Playable Model Pack
Fun. This is an old file that some of you may remember...it makes the hazard trooper, rocket trooper and Ragnos playable. Yes, Ragnos. You can play as Ragnos. Quite amusing, being able to float around as a ghost swinging your lightsaber. Even better still, I use the light side of the force, so testing this out in-game was even more awkward than ever. But even playing as Ragnos didn't protect me from Tavion's wrath. Stupid yawing NPCs...

You've gotta be up for a disappointment then
This conversation is going in a very strange direction...
how come i'll be disappointed? and yh it has
It has indeed. Then again, while the voting isn't working I see no point in changing the poll and for some reason we seem to be visited by a lot of cannibals around 
@ Hardy: Because everyone who voted for that will have to get past me first I need my staff here.
My fellow Brothers in Arms, it is time to feast... on Pille's Flesh!
*shoots Wundai*

NOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNONMNOMNIOMNOMNONM!!!!!
If you wanna find me check your MSN, don't expect to make it back alive though
Nobody is going to eat Pille around here. The reason: me. I protect Pille from any threat .
Don't you guys dare to try eating Pille, besides you guys cannot win from him (even I cannot, trust me I tried and tried, he does not want to be eaten...).
And then you got that Panzerfaust that he always carries with him; right Pille ?
The Staff is workin' on the voting system mates, trust on them. Any good luck and compliments would really make them work harder.
~Blody.
Yeah my famous Panzerfaust.....ba da da da da, I'm lovin' it...

|  | FileFront Network Insider #147 - Network News Posted by: Hfx-Rebel on 10-03-2009 @ 09:09 |  | This News Item has been viewed 163357 times! Welcome one and all to the 147th FileFront Weekly Insider!
It's that time of the week again, and I am back! Some of you may be wondering what happened to the Insider these last few weeks, well, I've been busier then usual with family visits and camping and other real life stuff...but, that was then, and this is now! Therefore we have listed all the major gaming happenings for you below, and remember, if you see something that you would like to be added to the Insider, or have a suggestion, simply drop us an E-Mail at The Insider!
Before moving on to this week's edition of the Insider, I would like to Congratulate two new additions to the rank of Forum Admin at the FileFront Forums! The two lucky buggers are:
Ensign Riles - Formally a SuperModerator for the Forums, Riles is the holder and collector of all information...if I had to guess, I would say that he is jealous of the interwebz and he is trying to out do it! Go ahead, ask him anything, I bet you he has a screenshot of it!
S.T.A.L.K.E.R - Like Riles, STALKER was formally a SuperModerator at the Forums as well, he is also the Site Admin for STALKERFiles, and a Network Admin here. STALKER is unigue, as he wishes with all his heart that he would have been born as a Canadian. I have never seen such an envious compulsion...it is to be commended! 
On a serious note, these promotions were well deserved...enjoy boys!
CONGRATZ TO YOU BOTH!!
The staff of FileFront Network appreciates your patience and thank you during the technical difficulties that we have been experiencing lately. We are working through it to get it straightened out and we hope to be back to 100% very soon!

Half-Life: Cat-Life Beta Announcement
Originally imagined in 2003 as a mod for Half-Life, Cat-life has spent a great deal of time on hiatus over the years. After a long delay due to missing team leadership, the mod reorganized under current Team Cat-Life leader BiGToM. Yet the greatest missing component, a coder, remains absent. The biggest single set-back has been the cat's POV code. Now, with corrected code in hand, Team Cat-Life is able to wrap up other portions of the mod. With this news, the team has also announced a target date for the first stage of Open Beta testing...

Company of Heroes: Blitzkrieg
The central point of my mod is the introduction of tank crews who gain experience that is used for tank enhancements like new features etc. So the crews gets VET and not the tank. If a crew survives a tank kill and you get them home you can simply reassign it to a new tank, so no gained combat experience is lost.

Knights of the Old Republic II: Darth Nihilus - IMPROVED
Anyone who has played Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords knows that, for all of the build-up that goes on throughout the game, the fight with Darth Nihilus is incredibly disappointing. His Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, and Wisdom have all been given a boost, while Intelligence and Charisma have been left alone. Overall, this should make his attacks a bit more effective, while simultaneously weakening your own.

"Thirty years ago I settled in the remotest area of Cyrodiil I could find. I settled in the area of an old Nord rune stone, erected ages ago by some unknown artist.

In the last years more people have found their way to my paradise of isolation and a village has grown up around that rune stone."

Jacen Solo, son of Han and Leia, is popular enough of a character to have a bantha-load of books written about him or featuring him as one of the characters. At one point, or several points, he falls to the dark side, and becomes Darth Caedus. Now, Darth K-Diss, which is how I imagine his name is pronounced, has been reskinned off of the blondie Jaden model and put into our beloved game.

|  | Uploading your files to our Network Sites - Network News Posted by: GOODY on 09-29-2009 @ 09:12 - Source: FileFront |  | This News Item has been viewed 178992 times! There was a issue with files being sent to us via the insite upload system. The issue was that some files seemed to not make it through to our ftp servers so we could not add them.
I am happy to report that even though some files still do this we are able to work around this small bug. The bug itself is currently being fixed but it does not effect you submitting your files in the normal way.
There are many reasons why you should use the upload system instead of the email. The main reason is you can set the file up your self. You can add your own description. readme and screenshots. The upload system also makes adding your files to the sites a lot easier for the staff and will usually result in them appearing on the sites quicker.
As always if you have any questions then let us know at network@filefront.com and we will answer them for you. |  |   | 
|  | To all end users of FileFront Updated - Network News Posted by: GOODY on 09-25-2009 @ 16:18 - Source: FileFront |  | This News Item has been viewed 192097 times! UPDATE.
Feel free to submit your files in the normal way. We have found the issue and our staff will be recieving instructions tomorrow about what to do if a file still reports the error to you.
There is a small error on how our back end sees certain files but the file is there so no work is lost and we can add your work to the sites.
All site managers please check the staff forums tomorrow.
Goody
FileFront Network Administrator.
Dear FileFront Users,
We would like to address some ongoing issues with our gaming sites. As most of you are aware there are a number of bugs that are currently affecting things like voting and, on rare occasions, the user upload system. We can assure you all that these issues are currently being worked on along with other areas of the whole of the FileFront sites. If you wish to upload a file you can contact your site via: team@XXXXfiles.com and send them the file directly through those site specific email addresses. We do encourage you to try and submit it via the upload system (if it is a small file) first; You can also upload your files directly to FileFront.com and use the server 2 server function that is available on the upload pages.
The system we employ is a custom made system so as you can imagine these things do take time. This coupled with the fact that since the take over in April, our tech team is drastically smaller than it was under Ziff Davis.
Some of you will no doubt say "it is just a few small bugs so just get them fixed", right? Well in some aspects that is true but first the cause needs to be identified and any fixes tested to make sure it does not break something else. This has happened many times under ZD so our Tech guys are airing on the side of caution.
We would also like you to take something else into account, Development.
Thats right, the development of these game specific sites. By today's standard, our back end is old and, to be honest, the sites themselves need to be overhauled. This is what we are doing right now on top of hunting down bugs. The development means a lot to both staff and you, the end user.
With a better back-end it will add functions and make the adding of sites for new games so much easier and quicker. The site will be redesigned to bring a fresh new look to them. Uploading your files should be easier and hopefully see them on the sites a lot quicker.
So why are we posting this? The answer is simple: Some of you may think that the sites are bieng neglected when the opposite is true. They are going through a massive development phase it is unfortunate that during this phase there has been some disruption to you, the end user and for that we apologize.
Please stick with us and if you have any questions then feel free to direct them to network@filefront.com
Thank you for your patience.

Please submit files in the normal way now as we are able to add your files.
- The Network Staff
Hi all, we seem to be having an issue (on our end) with mirroring your file submissions, although everything that you, the developer, is required to do is not effected, what we, the Network Staff have to do to get your file mirrored to the site is. This only effects files that were sent in within the last three days.
We are working hard to get this resolved, but until we do, we would like you to submit your files to the team email belonging to the site...generally the email would be: team@xxxfiles.com Feel free to IM, email or go through the FileFront Forums to contact the site staff for the team email addy. As soon as this issue is resolved, we will let you know!!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. We thank you for your patience and hope to have this cleared up ASAP!

Here's a treat for all you Metroid fans! 1upD has released version 2 of Metroid Prime Conquest, which adds in many units from the Metroid universe in place of the Zann Consortium.

|  | FileFront Network Insider #145 - Network News Posted by: Hfx-Rebel on 08-23-2009 @ 20:02 |  | This News Item has been viewed 297391 times! Welcome one and all to the 145th FileFront Weekly Insider!
It's that time of the week again, and I am back! Therefore we have listed all the major gaming happenings for you below, and remember, if you see something that you would like to be added to the Insider, or have a suggestion, simply drop us an E-Mail at The Insider! Before we move onto the Gaming Ins & Outs on the Network, I have the privilrdge of providing you with a few Staff Profiles, so that you can know the people behind the names. Starting off this week's profile is one of our newest Network Administrators:
"Goody"
Hi I am Goody the site manager for SoF Files. I have been there for a couple of years now and loved every minute of it. I got the job there when a FileFront legend retired (Sir Paul) and he put my name forward to Pro-Filer for the job as there were no other staff on the site. Not long after that I was made a mod on the forums and set about starting the FileFront Clan which to be totally honest was a flop. We did however manage to get a good group of people together and we are still going. The clan moved away though when Ziff Davies said that FF was closing for good and formed The Exiled Gamers. In many ways we are still the old FF| clan as we have loads of FF staff there and it is doing better than ever.
Any way back on topic A few weeks ago I get a email from a Mr Funsocks saying contact me you will like what I have to say, So I did and suddenly I am a Network Admin (Excellent) with all the privialges that come with it. But wait, No Hfx_Rebel means I would actually have to do some work and oh boy how the staff have made me work Rebel is back now and everything is good again but the real suprise is just how much goes on in the background and how much some of the staff do. I though SoF Files was busy but there are staff running 3 or 4 sites that are a lot busier and do it so well. I have a new found respect for all of our staff and I am so glad i am in a position to help them all now.
Next up is another of our newest Network Administrators, and remember, if you think his signature on the Forums is just wrong, you can help the cause by placing: Just say NO to STALKER in your sig!!! Please welcome to the stage:
"S.T.A.L.K.E.R."
Who is S.T.A.L.K.E.R.? Is he some shadow character that hunts in the night and reigns death upon the unjust? Is he some sort of fantasy character only cooked up in some twisted souls imagination? Is he a 22 year old college grad from Pennsylvania who spends entirely too much time on the internet?
I know which one I want it to be... and dammit it ain't the last one.
I joined the forums way back in July 2002, part of the epic "Class of 2002" which has such great, upstanding....hmmfppff.....likable....hmmpfffhfhf. .....sorry, I can't type those words when referring to anyone from 2002 without laughing. Joined by others such as book, groddy and Mr. Matt we made a small and almost unnoticeable splash on the forums. Back in the day of "Gaming Forums", long before the corporate fat cats took over we talked about random and useless things, made fun of people and spammed everywhere. You know, exactly like we do today. Over the many years on the forums I was just a normal member (normal is subjective), until one day when me and another insane asylum escapee by the name of Nusentinsaino decided to annoy AzH (this was a favorite past time of anyone who knew him) and ask if we could be moderators. We knew the #1 rule of "How to be a moderator" was NEVER ask to be a moderator, but we were young and stupid and apparently so was AzH because he actually listened to us and hired us on as staff (You will note that this day is also referred to by many dooms day prophets as the start of Armageddon).
From then on I was a regular fixture (or couch, depending on who you asked) on many of the more popular forums. It eventually got to a point where I was modding 9 different forums at once (and actually reading 3 of them!). After quite a long time of pretending to mod the forums I was suppose to the Dark Lord of the Peach (aka That German Guy aka Lord Wiener) approached me about becoming green. I originally though he was going to kill me and let me rot until my skin turned green but he just wanted to know if I wanted to be one of the "Super Moderators" on the forums. Due to many changes it was some time after this original conversation that I was actually given the power that SuperMod's possess and banned my first advertiser. They say the first is always the easiest and it is true, these days I have no trouble whatsoever completely destroying a users entire forum life and wiping their existence from the forums. I even sleep at night while listening to the joys cries and screams of their tortured souls, still trying to convince us to buy shoes from Africa or that we have one the Nigerian Lottery.
From that day I have patrolled the forums in my big green vest helping those who ask me by directing them to PM Admiral Donutz with their questions. Posting well thought out and helpful messages to users in the Intro Forum (Donutz LIES!), and just generally hanging around to keep you lot in line.
As for the network... I can't recall when I joined but I am going to assume it was at some point between July 2002 and today. I have a feeling I am close. Back before the guys at GSC stole my name to use on their video game series (the fact it was called S.T.A.L.K.E.R. pre-2001 is of no importance here) I was just another network user hanging out at Jedi Knight Files and then a site went up for the upcoming (and would be upcoming for 5 years) game called S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl (or Oblivion Lost, depends on the time period). I applied to be staff on the site, starting small, with news post and POTD submissions. Over time I worked my way up to the Vice-Site Manager position, where I did a little of everything. After the site manager left, I took over and have been there ever since. I have worked on some other sites, FEAR Files and the like but my heart has stayed with the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Series.
Recently (you all saw the news post) I was given the opportunity to have even more power to abuse.....erm... ignore that.... I was given the opportunity to join the ranks of past greats like AndrewD, Azzr, and FileTrekker in the league of Network Administrators. I still run S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Files but also help out on any other sites that may need it and make it a personal mission to annoy Mr.Funsocks as much as humanly possible.
This has been a brief and mostly factually portrayal of the past 7 years of my life on the FileFront and Gaming Forums little corner of the internet.
Feel free to PM/Email me any questions you have on the forums or network so I can immediately forward them to Admiral Donutz or Mr.FunSocks respectively.
That is it for the Staff Profiles this week, I hope to have some more ready for you in next week's edition! Now, onto the Gaming Ins & Outs from the Network!

Soldier of Fortune: DH_Dog_Bowl
This map is a small football stadium I made especially for The Dog House. I got the idea for this map after playing the football CTF made by MK_Chronik. The map will support CTF, CTB, Control, DM, TeamDM and Arsenal modes.

Far Cry 2: GraveYard (1)
I must admit I was a little scared when first played GraveYard by the great mapper F0U. It's so detailed and realistic that you have the feeling you are really on a Graveyard during midnight...If you use the recommended settings the author stated (You must play by night during the most violent storm) you can see the spooky atmosphere that the author layed it out for.

Knights of the Old Republic II: Exile's Mystical Sword
TiggerGod is back once more, with his latest sword model for Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords. This 'mystical sword' as the author calls it, is the property of the Jedi Exile, your main character in the game. The sword is based on an 'elfen' design, and from what I can see, looks to be of pretty good quality.

Jedi Knight III: Episode 1 Obi-Wan Kenobi
Old Ben really did his part to leave a mark on a lot of folks didn't he? Who can honestly say that they don't like his character? Oh sure you might not be the biggest fan of Alec Guinness (meet me out back, we'll talk) or Ewan McGregor (I can give you that one), but the core character has been solid from the beginning, through both written and illustrated portrayals.

Jetfreak does retexture work like no one else. That much is plainly obvious just from the PotDs he can produce. And we've all wondered, from time to time, "how DOES he do that?" Well, now's your chance to add some seriously fantastic looking re-texture work from A2Files' resident expert on the subject.

Jedi Knight III: Arcane Weapons Pack
This is a perfect example of good design work. Not because its particularly elegant or eye-catching (which it is), but because of the authors approach to it. Straightforward really, he didn't see one, so he decided to make it himself! Dyyor has presented us three simple weapons. A sword, a gauntlet (that thinks its a sword) and a shield.

|  | New map - Map News Posted by: Pille on 08-20-2009 @ 16:40 - Source: Sylver |  | This News Item has been viewed 4265 times! Hi all,
I do it again and start a new map. Ok, today I will show you some pictures what I have done by now.
The new map will be called "Restricted Area". You will find a lot of buildings, damaged factories, trenches, rails, and ...
At the moment 45 % of the map is done, without the oob-area. The map size is like Lorraine, one of my favourite maps.
Hope you like it.

|  | Public beta test: Featured Modifications - Site News Posted by: Pille on 08-19-2009 @ 14:35 |  | This News Item has been viewed 3811 times! Hey guys,
as you may remember, in June we announced the soon-to-come "Featured Modifications" area. The technical issues of FileFront have thrown us back in the schedule a little, but since the staff is nearly back at full force and we do have the time to dedicate it fully to the site again, we hereby announce the public beta of our new modification database.
What is it?
The modification database, as the name kind of indicates, is supposed to become an ever-growing database featuring Modifications in Progress as well as already completed modifications.
Why is there two different pages for them?
We have decided to separate them into two pages as the fields which can be seen below the screenshots are adapted to the kind of modification. For the modifications in progress we want to give you as much of a preview to them as possible, while the site for completed modifications is supposed to reflect all information required to get to run them smoothly and to enjoy them.
Why is there so little content right now?
As mentioned above, both areas are currently in a stage of public testing. We have picked 2 modifications (one per page) to show what we are planning, and to get your feedback to. Once we have enough feedback and eventually adapted the pages to your wishes, we will start to add items to them at a regular base.
Where can I leave feedback?
Please leave your feedback, questions and suggestions in the comments below.

Is there a problem with the vote function? Every times I click on "Vote Now" I am sended to the page http://companyofheroes.filefront.com/poll_vote.pro and nothing happen.
Yes there is a bug right now that prevents the casting of votes, but it is being worked on as we speak.
Why I can't login as usual? Page only gets refreshed when trying to log in (Pass and Name is right)
Please check the network news items.
Login is now working thank you!
Other, I believe mod theft is low but it would be difficult to ban them from everywhere.
What the hell is mod theft? How can you steal something that doesn't belong to somebody?
It's called "mental property" which is what allows everyone who uploads his/her work to FileFront to keep the control over it. If you for example make a map and upload it here, and at a later time decide you don't want to share it any more, I have to remove it on your request.
It's also why you should always provide a readme file stating exactly how you expect to be credited and where you want to submit your work to. This has a legal background and is also stated in the FileFront Terms of Service.
Quote: It's called "mental property"
Actually, it's technically called "intellectual property". And he's right - saying that a mod/map/whatever else cannot be shared without your permission is legally binding, and is all the evidence you need, should someone be caught using your stuff without said permission.
-CanadianBorg
P.S. Resistance is futile, eh?
the term is "Intellectual property" and if you guys are going hang somebody for taking a mod and using it their way or re-releasing it as something else, you have your priorities in the wrong place. if you want to protect it, copyright it . it cost $35 to copyright something like this. but me i would like to keep the thief around so i can then taunt them for far much longer than the mod would even be played. that is all i have to say
It's only legally binding if you turn it into a contract, eg
"By downloading this mod, you agree that you are only allowed to distribute it / incorporate it into another mod with my express permission.... etc etc"
# 10: Not at all. The FileFront terms & conditions are pretty clear about this and, as several times stated on various events, the services offered here are a luxury, not a right. If someone thinks he has to use them by ripping the work of others he loses that luxury. Simple and plain, I don't need to spend 35 $ to get someone doing this off the network.
# 11: It is legally binding because you agreed to the general TOS in the second you signed up to the FileFront Network. Therefor, see my reply above regarding the "luxury, not a right".
Ah well, my mistake then
Intellectual Property is a dicey subject, especially when it comes to someone's invested time and effort into a modification of another program (game mod for example). Seeing how I am not a lawyer, I cannot fully discuss or explain this subject. However I can say what the policy is for files that have been uploaded to FileFront.
As stated in the Copyright Protection section of the FileFront AUP found here;
http://www.filefront.com/aup.php
"You may not post, distribute, perform, display, transmit or reproduce in any way any copyrighted material, trademarks, or other proprietary information without obtaining the prior written consent of the owner of such proprietary rights."
Basically, if there is any property that has been uploaded to FileFront, it cannot be distributed to another site or used by another person without the creators express permission.
