Hey.
This ship is just like my QM2, but I re-colored the hull and edited the names.

Why did I make a Port Authorities boat in QE2's colors?
Because Shipaddict asked me to. Thank him for this, not me =).

Download link: Removed >_>

Place this .dds file in C:\Program Files\Vstep\ShipSim2006\Actors\act_dynamic_objects paste it there.

Pictures (Probably they're smaller then they're supposed to be.

Sorry QE2

If the download link is wrong / corrupt / hasn't got the QE2 skin, please PM me.

Enjoy.

Is this so ugly that no one replies to it?

J3nsen · « **Reply #2 on:** June 15, 2007, 12:37:07 »

I din't like it, it just for easy colors!

Sry!

Let me be straight this time so I donâ€™t have to write 5 extra lines here.

Question: Do VSTEP permit users to add ship owners logo and names to a repaint of a existing ship model used in Ship Simulator?

Itâ€™s obviously that I have missed something if that is trueâ€¦

Copyright is a difficult area. I believe in cases of this kind, there may be some issues regarding permissions etc.

I may be wrong in this instance, but the copyright owners have the right to take action in cases where they think copyright has been breached.

Depends on how they decide on individual cases. As an extra point, VStep would not AND could not be held liable in matters like this

Ok why don't we change CUNARD to QUNARD?! and edit the logo or something?

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #7 on:** June 17, 2007, 11:30:47 »

I just had a battle with some idiots using unlicensed photos of my vehicles.

Copyright is an automatic process. There is no need to apply. You design it, you own it. If it is provable. (Cunard could, of course).

I doubt Cunard could sue anyone for using the black and white- as was used man times elsewhere. As for queen mary 2... Was there a queen mary 2nd (real person?) I don't think you can copyright a persons name. Or I'd copyright mine and sue the backside off every other Stuart.

Probably could do you for using their trade name Cunard though.

Unless you are doing it commercially or trying to undermine Cunard, I suspect they've got other things to worry about. And I agree with DJM very little chance they could o anything to Vstep (although an ISP was sued last few years for permitting defamatory material on its servers...)

Captain Davies · « **Reply #8 on:** June 17, 2007, 12:30:09 »

You should be careful Nub Cake, I think that if Cunard were to take legal action over the use of their name then it would be against the person that put it there.

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #9 on:** June 17, 2007, 12:49:19 »

Sorry, Captain D. What do you mean? Did you read my post or not?

I said it is very unlikely they would sue Vstep (as I agree with DJM), so obviously I refer to the person(s) who put the name Cunard on without permission.

And why would I need to be careful anyway? I'm nothing to do with it.

I still very much doubt Cunard would be too bothered if it isn't for commercial purposes. They MIGHT have sued Vstep if they did it but not an individual. Can't guarantee it though.

Captain Davies · « **Reply #10 on:** June 17, 2007, 15:33:19 »

Ooops, sorry, I meant to say Nub Cake. I'll change that now.

Season · « **Reply #11 on:** June 17, 2007, 19:20:19 »

Well, if Cunard is going to cry about a small thing like this, they're really sad -_-". I'll remove it anyway..

Quite right Marc

BUT... You only have copyright to things that are uniquely yours. IE A black hull with white superstructure could NOT be copyrighted as so many ships used it before. But the orange of easycruise could be as it is a distinct shade.

A complicated livery is one thing, but if Nub Cake gets rid of the Cunard logo I doubt they could do anything whatsoever.

Season · « **Reply #14 on:** June 25, 2007, 09:45:30 »

But I added 1 more pixel to the logo so it's not cunard's logo!!

Okay, that wasn't funny, I know

Stuart2007 · « **Reply #15 on:** June 25, 2007, 12:15:44 »

No, it it changes the logo in a MATERIAL WAY (not sure how that translates- substantial???) then you are OK.

Stu

Orinoco · « **Reply #16 on:** July 09, 2007, 21:58:13 »

Have you ever thought of just e-mailing/writing to Cunard to see if they mind?

I really doubt they would, it's not like you're making money out of it.

Wout · « **Reply #17 on:** July 11, 2007, 20:00:45 »

Users can recreate any ship they want. As long as it is not for commercial use there usually is no problem. VStep however can't reproduce any ship they want.

Season · « **Reply #18 on:** July 12, 2007, 10:10:47 »

Thank you, Wout.

Nice to a new P6 skin Nub cake

I don't see there being any copyright issue with this whatsover - unless you tried to sell it of course

Hey, you're supposed to be out there in deepest Drenthe where they have never heard of computers watching to see if the Hunebeden change color. What are you doing here??

Cheers,
