Falling Snow around Christmas in AWGate

Dec 5, 2004, 5:14pm
if you think mask are pretty big, you are doing something wrong :(
Masks are usually grayscale if you want soft edges, or b&w (1 bit) if you
don't mind some jaggies.
Then they are zipped and should be in the 10k range or less, usually 2 or 3k

cit database searches like in other competing 3D chats

May 24, 2005, 10:21am
Here are a few things I have not seen covered as I did a search on all the
topics:

There is no build in search in the AW browser for cits that are online
(excluding the ones with the question mark of course).

Secondly, it is really annoying to send telegrams to cits that are expired
without having any knowledge that the gram is going into the bit bucket.

There needs to be a way to mark expired cits in your contact list.

Just my 2 cets worth.

Well things are not that simple as a model maker. I am not here to chat
to everyone on my contact list like others who are here just for that
purpose.. I sometimes need to contact a customer maybe 6 months later
for one reason or another, and I have no idea if they have left AW or not.

Merlin world contents moved to Mythopia

Dec 2, 2004, 7:59pm
in case anyone wants to know, I moved all my content to Mythopia,
my new world. Merlin will morph to whatever the original
owner wants to do with it. So I don't want anyone to be surprised
and think I have gone. I will also be using a new cit# but same name.

Free vs Not Free

Aug 23, 2005, 6:45pm
As a model creator, I have just started to read some of the postings
in this newsgroups.

I still don't think people understand the distinction between various forms
of
free. So I will try to enlighten the ones that care, and the ones that don't
care, I don't care about, lol.

The most free for lack of better word, is Public Domain. Those are things
that truly belong to everyone without restriction, like the air we breathe.
Those items, once modified by anyone can and will be resold by the person
that modifies them in any way, sort of like a miner that takes the "free"
coal
out of the ground. If of course they are not modified, than of course there
is no reason to pay money for them.

Now there are restricted free, as in the case with models that have a
copyright
notice on them, like mine do, and this will have various restriction from
not
being able to redistribute, or modify the mesh, or resell them for money.

The various free sites that TaLLan mentioned have various kinds of free
versions.
As an example, take my free Athena model, that I reduced the polys on. In
the
original notice it is very clear that it can't be resold, even when
modified.

AW has a chorse.rwx, that is a public domain model made by the company
LightWave, makers of the same named 3D program. As it is without
restriction,
the modified horses, which various modelers in AW have used as the basis for
their modification of horses, including mine, can be legally sold as a
derivative,
as defined under the copyright law.

Since some of you are so annoyed at people selling free stuff, look at this
link,
and I bet you paid money for some of the books on here that are FREE and
in the public domain..

Enjoy, Starheart
