Do we get the source files? — Modding

and something tells me that even if the source code was leaked to him, it wasn't leaked by the guys from Nival, but rather by someone from another well-known "company"!

That's unlikely. Most likely, it still came from Nival.

In the word "motivate," is the "a" definitely correct?!

I appreciate the humor. However, not everyone is willing to share their work for just an idea. That's why he valued his time and effort at 25,000 euros. Of course, his demand is clearly out of touch with reality.

In this case, the NDA implies non-disclosure, not "non-commercial distribution" (in case he was promised something if he let something slip). As for sharing, we can only rely on money. Maybe we'll get lucky, and he needs exactly 1k euros right now for new sneakers)).

How else can we motivate a European? Should we say we're not from Russia?

Glistagon, has this European already responded to you? Perhaps you shouldn't rely on him.

As I understand it, with the source files, you can add cities instead of replacing them, right? Can you add anything to the game?

Glistagon, has that European guy responded to you yet? Maybe it's not worth counting on him.

I read it half an hour ago, and he's still silent. Either he's writing a lengthy response, or he's just ignored it. I'd say there's a 95% chance you can't count on him. After all, he hasn't shared anything with anyone during all this time. Now, as an alternative idea, I'm gathering a team of developers to add resources and visuals from the 5th game to the open-source 3.5 core. I really want to do something big for my favorite game, and I've been putting it off for too long. :smile01: :smile01: :smile01:

He won't provide the source code. You could end up in jail for something like that.

He won't release the source code. You could even end up in jail for that.

You could end up in jail only if it results in significant financial losses for Ubisoft. And proving his involvement would also be a problem. But no one is really hoping for anything from him. Simply not trying would be wrong.

He's been silent for an hour now. Who's next in line?)

Forget it. He won't take the risk. Put yourself in his shoes. A bunch of strangers are asking him for illegal content.

Wow. So, a conversation started. And he didn't say it.

That's interesting! And what is his stance?

Right now, as an alternative idea, I'm gathering a team of developers to attach the resources and visuals from the 5th game to the open-source 3.5 core.

Oh, I'm afraid it's easier to write a new game than to do that.

He won't give out the source code. You could end up in jail for something like that.

And he doesn't need to give anything. He doesn't own them. I would like to get some leads from him about who might be able to provide them. Well, that's how I understand it.
Ideally, we could persuade Ubisoft to make it open source, although that's probably too ideal. But who knows, if there are connections...

Isn't there any copyright infringement with the owners of the third Heroes game?

I have a contact from the old Katauri team, who has a contact from the old Nival team. I'll try to find something out too. I've caught the general excitement!)

That's great! Maybe he still has access to their repository.

Isn't there any copyright infringement here with the owners of the third Heroes game?

The fact that it's free probably doesn't violate any copyrights. But there are nuances, for example, that's why they called their project VCMI, and not Heroes 3.6 or something else.
