Sturm Posted December 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) If someone could make one (or some) video or even .gifs not about the game itself, but using the game to teach about:- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_infantry_tactics- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phalanx- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Wonders_of_the_Ancient_World- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillars_of_Ashoka- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apadana- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_of_Vesta- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SanchiAnd so on...I am quite sure that we will be able make many other 0ad Featured Medias on Commons.By the way, any news about the Cinematic camera videos?- Finally, is there a way to mass download the building and units concepts to upload them to Commons?Regards,Sturm Edited December 17, 2015 by Sturm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturm Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Sorry for "up" this question, but... Is there a way to mass download the building and units concepts to upload them to Commons, as they were released as CC-BY-SA 3.0?- http://play0ad.com/media/building-concepts/- http://play0ad.com/media/unit-concepts/Regards,Sturm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As such, the easiest way for you to download the images is probably to scrub the pages.However, I also wonder if Commons will accept this. So best ask there first.

So best ask there first.Thank you for your answer, Sanderd17. Looking to the images under both links, I am unable to identify non-free material there, as most if not all images seems to be produced for the game itself and by Wildfire volunteers, released in a website the uses a CC license. I am a long time volunteer on Commons, over 10 years, and I can tell that most (not all, true) are valuable to the project.Regards,Sturm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturm Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Upping the topic! Two questions!1- Was this video released under a CC license?- 2- What is the license of the main 0 ad Mods? Are they also released under a CC-BY-SA 3.0?Regards,Sturm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niektb Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) 2. Speaking for Millennium A.D., Rise of the East and Aristeia: yes, they are released under the same license as 0 A.D. so CC-BY-SA 3.0 (that is for the art, the code is licensed under GPL => Just like 0 A.D. does it) Edited January 6, 2016 by niektb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanderd17 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Thank you! Probably my final question: Are those files the highest resolution available? Normally, yes. Upping the topic! Two questions! 1- Was this video released under a CC license? - (snip)Given that it features CC-BY-SA content, the video could be considered a derived work from it, so should be under CC-BY-SA too. It's just a case of forgetting to set the license. 2- What is the license of the main 0 ad Mods? Are they also released under a CC-BY-SA 3.0? Regards, SturmMods that mix art from 0 A.D. should also be under CC-BY-SA to not get in a legal nightmare. Else you have serious troubles when f.e. distributing a video or screenshot with mixed content. Additionally, many mods start from 0 A.D. art to modify it, which would make it directly derivative work, so requires CC-BY-SA. However, we don't require mods to be CC-BY-SA licensed. A total conversion mod that doesn't derive from nor mix with 0 A.D. art could use its own license for sure. But I haven't seen one like that yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
