I know I'm a bit late to the party with this, and might even be completely wrong with it, but wouldn't it also be illegal to pay someone to include something to a game they technically have no legal rights to? Microsoft still owns the Freelancer IP, and while the person creating the model would feel he is in his right to receive payment for such creation, Microsoft's legal team could slam him with lawsuits for making profit off their initial work. Just my two cents, and as I stated before I could be completely off with my statement. If I am wrong, my bad and disregard this entire post. If not, something to remember.
