copyright?

Sorry for not searching, I'm lazy.
If I make an oGame server with any of the things here (Rogue Universe ETC) will I have Copyright problems?
I don't wanna have copyright problems.

Think about this... all this forum is a BIG COPYRIGHT problem.... We are on a private server forum we punch the law in its face ^^ .... And you won't have copyright problems but still I advise you to use Xnova

All you need to do is change the skin and all ship, defence, building and research names and descriptions. If you change them there is nothing that Gameforge can do.

One word:
SHIT?
I'm no good at PHP.. I think I must move to an open source space game. *goes on Sourceforge..*
Oh hey. Sourceforge / Gameforge. >_< Anyway. BRB. :tongue:
And, I want to use xNova for my oGame server.

You still need to rename everything even if you use Xnova.

Seriously.
XNova is a GNU licensed product, that mean you can use it for whatever you want, you just need to give credits to the creators.

Anything about renaming things is dumb.

Gameforge should be the first one to have copyright problems, many (not to say almost every single one) of the images of the main skin were ships from other games (for example, the Bomber was an advanced fighter from the game "Wing Commander Prophecy").
What you need is to use XNova material, if you really wanna be sure you won't have problems, use differnt images made by yourself or some guys on sites like deviant art who will give you the permission to use them, but renaming things is useless. Heavy Fighter? I don't think it's a Gameforge copyrighted name... Battleship, Destroyer, Cruiser, all those names are free commonly used words and can be used without any problem by anyone.

Xnova = free source code => Just write we are powered by xnova... french programers....(sounds good also .. ) and use that script what with all this copyright bussines no one will come and put the law on you
