Soldat Game
« on: January 02, 2009, 06:29:56 pm »
Just making sure;

I am planning on making an RPG game using Soldat's graphics. It is a free game I am making, not profiting in any way. Soldat is free software. So...I am allowed to do so, correct?

Of course the proper credit will go where it belongs.

Email the creator of Soldat, Michal Marcinkowski, asking for permission to use some of the images and sprites in Soldat for your own game.


Until you get a reply from him, don't use any of his work for something of your own. He made the Soldat sprites all on his own, put his back into making them, and doesn't need someone stealing his hard work.

What do you mean? Be sure to wait until he replies before starting any work.

i was done e-mailing. Even if i do not get permission, it wont be that hard to make my own sprite. As for the other graphics, ripped is how im going to go. There are plenty of them out there. Polyworks is going to become my best friend again for designing the level layouts. There is little i actually need permission for, most of everything is already free to use. It would just be much more simple and nice if i didnt have to worry about making any sprites.

Soldat doesn't even use sprites anyway; it uses skeletal animation. So unless you're planning to take a bunch of screenshots while you're running, it'd probably be easier to just make your own.
