Re: Inexpensive 5 days built Foam Iron Man Mk IV
Hum hmm...
Here we are.
Dear users from the entire world,
When you watch a video movie, le last ten minutes are always the same : a black screen with a OST's main title, and a three miles long list of names of peoples that did a thing for this movie. From the realisator to the restroom guy #4, everybody has his name minutely put down. It's shamely boring, and incredibly useless since meenwhile the whole audience is already trying to find back where they've parked their car (and they miss the short hang-up at the very end), BUT credits and casting remains at the end of every movie because it's imposed. And there is a reason why.:confused
TheRPF is a nice and bucolic place, where we can learn, expound, watch, submit, exchange and share knowledge. We often swagger, sometimes learn, and rarely inquire (re-sort on your own), because it's obviously the way a common forum works well.
It must not be a reason to share all and everything, of course, and we have to keep in mind that, just as in a movie, some support and knowledges would not even exist wihtout long time contribution and devotion of REAL people, who happened to spend non-stop long months elaborating concrete and accurate ressources. (And to share it, of course, since an unshared ressource is not a ressource). We can definitively not crop up and claim "have a look at the nice JFcustom's tower I buit out of matches in two hours only", when it remains in fact an Eiffel tower which I moded original plans to use maches as main material insted of steel.
Around here we do not deal with credits. Those who have tryed can't talk about anymore.:love
That's why I should have renamed each file inside my *.rar befor sharing it whith you. Just like at the end of movies. It can seem also boring and useless, but it has to be seen as a moral obligation for each of us not to disassociate a creation and its creator. And remember nobody can pretend having invented the Purpule Pig only by painting a pig in purple. :confused
But the worse is yet to come.:behave
Just like you I downloaded files, revise them for my own use, bought foam, and built a suit, wihtout asking whatever to anybody. That's fine, TheRPF is here for that too.
BUT ! after having been asked for, and when my turn finaly came to share these modifyed files, I quickly made a zip without inquiring about protocol nor permission from nobody. For an Eiffel Tower id would have been different, G.Eiffel died in winter 1923. But robo3687 and darkside501st did not. And as such, they legitimately want to know what happend to the original files they've shared, what do these files become between our hand. Especially they may want to be notifyed when their files are tunned, and above all they may want to retrive and check new packages in order to allow or no their public distribution.
:cry Oh remorse, remorse, robo3687 for Iron Man Mark IV and darkside501st for Iron Man Mark VII, please be kind enough to forgive an irresponsible and careless frenchie who stole your awsome 3D models you spent a crazy long time to complete, a single guy that finaly did only try to make your work more reachable for most of us, those who can't aford spending half a year to build a cosplay. I apology for all the inconvenience, and promise that by now I won't swift away official protocol channels. But please, it does not seem that users on this thread would like me to stop posting tips I use, nor files I mod. Just let them keep using your work with tips I explain, and allow an access to these files. The more your work will be used, the more consequentialy will grow your notoriety.:cool
Well, files are renamed, creators credited, humble apologyes done... can we please go on now and proceed to dl-links resurection ? Users are queuing... :darnkids
