Alright, I know everyone's had to deal with this question. Should we use ripped models, or should we sustain from model theft and use only original models?
Pros:
Game accurate models (duh)
no need to generate original models, but only needing to clean them up.
Cons:
Copyright Laws (theft)
No pride in creating something original
I've been on the side of using no ripped models, but after finding out the lack of other non halo models, my model 'morals' if you will, have been blurred.
I don't feel right about using other's work without permission, but no one is profiting from it (those who are would be the ones I'd start a witch hunt after) and are technically promoting their work with every costume.
So where does everyone stand?
To rip? Or not to rip? Or should we all just R.I.P. ?
