You do realize Star Wars hasn't changed in years, so anybody can come along and say that he stole this and they stole that, but Star Wars content never really changes, i your going to say they stole content, but can you really prove they did? Let me guess this building looks similar to this so it has to be stolen. But no matter how many ways you look at it star wars content hasn't changed at all anyway, it always looks the same. Is it considered stealing when the directors of the Star Wars rogue one used an AT-AT design, considering empire strikes back used the AT-AT even though both movies were made by 2 different directors. Does that mean he stole the AT-AT from empire strikes back and placed it in his movie? Of course not because everything in Star Wars looks the same, so it really doesn't matter what these devs used considering it will always look the same. So shut up and enjoy the Star Wars mod.

Lel you didnt get what they ment by stealing.

Its not stealing the idea of an AT-AT. Its stealing the work involved to create it for this game.

So say you drop 1000hours making each stormtrooper model in blender. Then i get hold of it and upload it with a map i made and say its mine. Would you not be slightly pissed that i didnt credit your work?

Not saying they have done that but you get the idea right?

You're joking, right? That's really not how copyright works. You mean anyone can make Star Wars movie without asking for permission? I wonder why we don't have thousands of them by now then. :D

Lol

dudes are totally ruining mods. i left console games because they are linear and have way more potential, than the finished prodect. The only thing keeping games like arma 3 alive are mods. Like whats so hard with asking permission and giving credit?

As far as I am concerned This is the only Star wars mod out there. I could care less about BHI claims of poached assets. The only thing that matters to me is that, after all this time of waiting, we have a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Star Wars mod that actually has content bursting out at the seams. At this point BHI DMCA'ing the ONLY STAR WARS MOD out there for ARMA 3 just looks scummy to the community at large, who have been waiting for a long time for such a mod to come out.

Scummy to the community at large? While I'd like to have Star Wars: Opposition on the workshop as much as anyone else, it's absolutely scummy to use stolen assets. These are things people put countless hours into and it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ when someone steals them and uses them without permission.

Think of it this way:

You go to work and do an excellent job, but another employee steals the work that you put hours into and gets praise and a promotion because of it. Is that fair?

Also, there is currently no evidence that the DMCA was filed by BHI.

Hard not to like free stuff but the mod isnt really piracy. Anyway i heard you can still get the mod on their website but when i went there it was all in russian. I still hav the files though i might upload them somewhere if needed.

The sad thing is that hes right, and not too long ago I warned of this on steam forums... and woop de doo here it is. thats why they need to go to things like a3launcher or on their own website, before they get ♥♥♥♥♥♥ by an even bigger company then there are no more mods ever

Yeah, but it was just a spark, the rest of the stuff was made by them other than the spark, a spark in blender doesn't take that long to make
