#Ac3d x plane ed panel development license#
Basically if it is not GPL, it will not be included into the FG official aircraft collection (a.k.a FGAddon)ģ) The same over 2 above applies to your work on this aircraftĤ) I am uncertain why you believe MIT license gives you more commercial freedom than GPL. Harrison =to the purpose of allowing this cockpit to be included in the FG distribution. However, anyone can still just hop over to NASA and grab the model and put their changes/additions to it to use it in FG and distribute it off site under whichever license they want, they can also sell it if they choose and their license permits for answeringĢ) I understood the 3d model on the SpaceShuttle cockpit is not the one on the webpage you pointed out (which was brought up way before in this thread), but one being currently work-out independently by R. So it gives even more freedom even for commercial use. I personaly don't mind the GPL for anything I do, the only reason I prefer MIT style licensing is because it allows me to sell my work and allows anyone recieving a copy to use and sell as well without asking permission. I am not going to touch any work you have done until I can open and export a sample that matches the development rest I am going to check if the plugin triangulated any of the faces I turned to quads in the SSME model I posted a few posts back. That would be perfect, I will load in the UI settings that are saved with the file. I didn't receive the email from sf.net you can send direct to rjh aht zaretto doht com but please CC Thorsten in any emails.

There are at least two versions of the AC3D export one that works (io_scene_ac3d) and one that doesn't (IME).Īt the moment I'm still working on the texturing of the panels in the cockpit model - once I've got it into a sensible state I'll push the blend into the repository - until then I'd appreciate it if you didn't change the cockpit model.Īs you might have noticed the internal and external windows don't line up I've made it as best I can for the moment - but couldn't figure out which was right there seems to be differences between the original FG models, the NASA model and the photographs. I tend to use mainly blender now I might have used AC3D to do some of the work on the exterior - but I can't be sure.īlender is less tolerant of non triangulated surfaces so sometimes an AC3D model that works fine in FG will need work after importing - so I tend to keep the models in Blender and just export.as required to AC3D. My settings using io_scene_ac3d - I just checked with the version that Thorsten mentioned from the c172p-detailed project and it seems fine. I tried to contact him yesterday through SF.net but nothing yet.

Its best for the entire participatingh community to make certin of the facts first and not flame out in arrogance! The Blender Foundation can shut down this site if they felt like it.

I don't want to see two free software providers in a legal battle FlightGear and the Blender Foundation. You are wrong IAHM-COL, the cockpit model is released under Creative Commons for this project you better go ask him if he wants his license changed. Let me first remind you of the declaration of intent for Flightgear, as seen in the Readme file of FGDATA In particular I am having trouble to keep recognizing that 1) you have good intents related to the GPL license of the shuttle, and 2) that you want to be an open participant in the development of GNU covered software =such as Flightgear and the Shuttle. In particular in what is related to the legal issues of the situation you are proposing. I am unaware of the exact meaning of your statements above. IAHM-COL wrote in Wed 7:29 pm:Hi Thorsten
