What about xcf (GIMP image file)? Is this likely to be added in the future?

I have never heard of this, but I can add it.

Fantastic. So this means people can (in some cases) access the files used to make the LW object rather than it being locked only into the LW file right?

 

I wonder would it be possible that items in the workshop can be made to automatically list the contents of their archive, so we don't have to rely on each author to manually do this.....or at the very least some single indication that an item is supposed to come with resources.

 

On a related note. If items are more open (which I think is important even if they are only used in LW), is it clear what the usage terms are for each item. In particular can the item be used outside LW. Is there a default for that, such as unless stated by author then item is assumed to be OK to use elsewhere?

All Nova Dimension's stuff includes source files (FBX, PNG, etc.) and so does the Merc character. The license is the same for all items in the Workshop, and is specified in the Leadwerks EULA.

Yep I saw that with the Merc character (which I bought) and I think that helps pull the trigger.

 

Thanks for informing me Nova's stuff has textures. I will probably buy one now. On the workshop item it mentions the dimensions of textures but I wouln't have read that as certainty that they contain files outside the models.

 

I'm guessing they are the dirtied version. Would have been neat to have a clean version too so you could use it as old and new.

Feel free to contact the author and suggest it to him! I don't know the details of how he made them.
