:p Here we go... Just to prove my point... :D
(Letter is going today, but regardless of that - just look at this)

Yahoo is not really known for conducting illegal things, right? You think they are now? :p
BFME1 Intro Movie @ Yahoo Entertainment!

If they can use it openly on the net for anyone to not only see, but also download - why in the friggin heck should it be illegal to put it in a mod. It's not a game, it's not a model, it's not a skin. You can't do squat with it, but watch it, and enjoy it in true LOTRs spirit. I see no difference and motive why it should be ok on a website but not ok in a mod... But we'll see what EA says, or not (which they wont). :p


All things considered... I'm not trying to be a jerk and I'm not trying to do something wrong. I'm trying to make BFME2 into one of the best BFME2 mods you can ever play (if you love the movies look upon Tolkien's work like I do), and thus wanna buy EA's game, if you haven't already. Win/win-situation... The video is just an iceing on the cake. =p

Why? "Fine the way it was"? Maybe you were, but I wasn't. I'm trying to prove my point from the start - that it is a somewhat redicilous debate, regarding the movie, and this proves my point. Naturally Yahooo is not doing anything illegal, that would be absurd. This is posted back in 2004 for Christ sake, and it would have been pulled out/off a long time ago if was something even remotely wrong with it... And "insanely high res" is not really accurate actually. This is the exact same "trailer" as the intro movie, with the exception of the frame work... and the "un scaled" size which makes it look sharper.

*letter sent & point proven* HA! =p
(Btw, I showed the letter to Sûl, so I have a witness that I actualy wrote it, hehe). If they reply though, I have to eat my socks... *promised* hmm ;p


PS, anyone can go to Google and search for any of these movies and you'll find them. Not just on strange questinable places but big time corporations like Yahoo, YouTube and so on. The BFME2 intro is on YouTube for instance... ^_^

And Youtube is the place where is no illegal stuff eh ? ^_^ But I agree with you, I really dont think that EA will mind but I also think that they will reply :p

Does the new intro movie 'overwrite' the old BfME2 one?
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

Yeah, in the mod, but not in your retail game. I will also provide two versions. One without the intro (using the BFME2 one) and one complete version using this intro with it's +95 Mb. So I don't have to listen to complaints about bandwidth :thumbsupdrool:

Further discussions around the stuff, and not the "law" discussion here, plz use the other thread =)

Acually, from MY point of view, EA is happy about mods that make more people buy thair games, as (If you think about it) we modders are doing MORE than EA if you don't incluede the orriginal games eg. BFME, BME2, but the expantions eg. RotWK, its an Expantion pack, but a lot of mods have MORE things in them, than an official expantion pack eg. R.C., S.E.E., T4A and WoA.
LotRO: Arobomir, started The Dúnedain Rangers kinship at level 16, now level 51 and kinship is rank 10
Elzendill, started The Clan of the Golden Mage kinship at level 15, now level 32, kinship is rank 10
highest ranks FTW!!!!
