They can be pulled with the next version without replacement, why shouldn't that be done?

No ships get 'pulled' until there are replacement models for them. We arent going to risk a character wipe just because you dont like a ship here.

Got a problem with it? Find another server.

Well this is becoming quite a debate. The question is why is an import any less freelancerish then perhaps a new ship? Granted if it was retextured with fl textures it would fit even more. And it's not like the BH caps that are really ugly and missplaced, some imports fit... slowly they should be replaced, remodeled, and that's what's going on.

Removing a selling location from the mod, well how is this going to help anything? You are just wasting a ship slot then.

in my eyes, retexturing is not an option. even remodeling but keeping the style like it has been done with the viper, isn't sufficient. If you write an own song, you shouldn't keep other people's melodies, if you get what I'm talkin about.

However, there IS an option to remove ships from the game without a wipe:

- Remove it from all selling points.
- Change its Armour to 1000.
- Make it turn like a brick.
- Give it a 1:1 selling price.

An advantage of this method is, that you still have the model with its stats in the mod, so if you plan to submit a certain type of ship based on the stats of an old one, then you always save some work.

But this would mean a loss of "features". And I'm not quite sure if igiss would write something like "Removed 32 old ships from the mod" into the changelog.

Awh, I'll miss the Firefly when its' gone. I always thought it fit in very well with the freelancer verse, even though I wish the texture was a little better (and the engine too. Tail needs a big green WOOSH when you go cruise, and side engines need to be blue.)

I can't help but talk western and curse in chinese when I'm piloting my Firefly smuggler...

*glare*

Your eyes can be pulled without replacement as well.

But really, its not going to happen by the time of this next mod. Theres no sense in arguing over its deletion and I'm pretty sure we're all in agreement that:

A: It wont happen by the next version.
B: It may never happen given a re-texturing and slight remodel just enough for it to be recognized.

Everywhere you post you cause havock, Akuma. I hate to be blunt, but its the truth. So please, everybody, stop this senseless arguement when 29/30 people agree -insert repition- that it wont happen by the next version.

Well, I don't love them. They should be out.

It makes sense at this point to simply delete the imports from all bases for this next version, then if people really want a replacement to create it for the next.

Lets have an import free Disco.

Ok, just for fun, why not explain in detail...sighting examples where appropriate, why you think your personal judgement supercedes all other opinions.

You have always had a horrible habit of this, & it's tiresome. Besides...I'd really like to know.

I'll bet you a dollar you will deflect my question though, type alot of words & never really say anything.:dry:

This is not a flame, but a friendly challenge.

::edit- by the way: pm me your answer::

Most of the opinions expressed about imports agree that they should be removed, as near as I can tell.

There is no risk of a character wipe from removing any ship from being saleable if it is still in the game files. It just prevents additional sales of the ship but allows those that have them now to keep them.

I believe he refers to the fact that he believes that you think your opinion is worth more than others, as opposed to this particular instance.
