I agree, I was not criticizing the work, because I think that any contribution is welcome, but that was not an original work, nor mine was it... and I believe we should cite our sources, especially when using a free work.

As I said before, just clarifying. :ott1:

I certainly didn't rip off your idea/scythe, Ive never even heard of or played Dpt.

I got the spine from: 3DXtras.com - Free 3D Model : spine02 . Join us, share and download our free 3D Models

And the skull from: 3D Other skull lebka 3ds

I just merged them together reduced the poly count and fixed them up a bit to suit my requirements.

This was originally for someone in ePT, post here http://forum.subagames.com/showthread.php?t=25087

Kind of a training exercise, trying to teach them. I cited my sources there, but forgot here ^^

I will try write better credits/cite sources in the future.

sunnyzz,hence magnus there made the weapon for me..cause i had been whining for days and days about modding...so he gives me this thing as an example so i can learn..the end result being a lightsaber mod that i made (with bob sobol`s and sunnyz`s help) so this dont have nothing to do with anyone but me and sunnyz as far as original inspiration...

and i aint the only one that has made a lightsaber mod either,far from it,but am i ripping off others who made lightsaber mods?no...im spreading the star wars as i see it XD...

so @ whoever complained at sunnyz..that skull staff was thrown together by sunnyz cause i begged and whined and annoyingly complained for several days to sunnyz...so this aint got nothing to do with you,and you had better back off

especially considering that sunnyz made that with GNU public liscense material which cant be held for plagarization legally

Now I'm confused. Who thought up the skull-staff idea?

No, citing sources is important. But citing similar sources is a waste of time. Sunny should have linked to the meshes he started work from in the first post, but they are freely available, and credited at their host locations, and he has posted to them later. (Better late than never)
