1. You're new
2. We don't do imports
3. Have some respect for RoS, they earned that shipline from years of RP - not to mention other servers will still be using them after 4.87

Edit: Note that this is not to discourage you, if you have originally designed ship models - I can assure you that the community would be more than happy to take a look, imports on the other hand....not so much.

I'm not new I lost access to my old account because my email got hacked and I had to close it. So your wrong there.
I don't care how long it takes or even if I have to pay someone to make this happen... Ill keep trying. I'm hoping at least for the Andromeda since it actually has a more freelancer ship style anyway.

Again, no. No imports. None. Whatsoever. We're working on getting rid of the current ones.

Retired, permanently.

Why? They are part of the reason I joined disco cause no other mod had any imports.

Because, they simply have no role in the lore of Freelancer. The reason the community has and will continue to survive is because of the identity it has forged for itself, not borrowed from others.

Now I have no models I would submit because again I use already made ships and modify them... but I.never submit because it destroys the glory of the original ships.

If they are well made and approved by the community you would infact be glorifying it more than the original.

So what? Identities change. If it weren't for the continuous changing of this game it would likely die off in a few years. Why not adding something that already has a large fanbase to increase popularity of the community. If you modify the ships partially everyone is happy. Easy done and everyone is sadiated.

Dig around the media center, there's a new model reminiscent of the Eagle. Part of the crusade against imports.

Did you try looking at the ship firing the guns? Or reading the post?

That's THREE ships out of multiple hundred in this mod.

I really don't know what you're trying to accomplish here. The dev team would not add another import to the mod no matter how shiny it is.

Say whatever happened to the Metropolis?

Because as well as being unfitting, there's copyright laws.

Exactly, ships can be INSPIRED by other franchise's ships, that can be great, just not direct copies. For instance a good example of whats acceptable and whats not I think, would be the Zoner whale, Inspired by the Star Wars Rebel Transport, and the GMG whale (Which I own and love BTW) a direct copy of the Star Wars Rebel Transport.

This thread is going nowhere.

Yes, there are imports.
No, no more imports are being accepted.
No, partially changing them is not acceptable because it has to fit with whatever shipline the ship is included in. It can be inspired in a ship from certain series, but not just steal the model and add/remove a few bits
No, paying someone won't make your model accepted.

If you really plan on submitting ships do something new and original that the community will accept. Not imports.

Imports is kill
