Initiator of closing release theme was one of moderators of BIS Forums – Relikki.

To prove his arguments LODU showed few screen-shots, which we protested immediately. After theme closing we sent a mail to moderator with our screen-shots and explains

But, unfortunately, he ignored us.
After another 3 mails we received answer – decide this problem with LODU.

We sent two mails to LODU with prove that his arguments are undefined, but he didn’t answered even today. VDV Package is still outlaw.

You all know, how many time we waste to create this modification, and we want to show you arguments, which we used to try to solve this problem.

1) LODU try to prove that we stole texture of helmet:

We see, that helmet color, and texture of inner part of helmet is different. Also, metal rivets on our helmet is modeled, when rivets on LODU’s helmet is painted on normal map.
Helmet lugs are alike, but this is part of helmet. We should don’t model them only because they alike LODU’s ones?
The only thing that is almost identical, is helmet’s strap. But we didn’t use this part of texture in our package!
We use it as example, but we changed it in release version.

2) LODU try to prove that we stole normal map:

Is coincidence are obvious for a first look?
BUT we didn’t use this texture in release variant of VDV Package.

We use another normal map:

brit1\characters4\kaska_stil.rvmat

class Stage1
{
texture="Brit1\characters4\kaska_stil_camo_nohq.paa";

We think that difference is obvious!

Why this texture is in the .pbo archive?

Because this archive have many textures that used as example. They aren’t use in VDV Package!

3) LODU try to prove that we stole model of radio and texture:

To prove this fact he show screen-shot, one of earlier demonstrations of our work. On this picture radio and radio operator alike LODU’s ones. But in final release we haven’t these radio operator!
We started with these radio, but we changed it to two another radios:

STR_vdv_11,"Radio PRD R-163"

STR_vdv_42,"Assaultman radioman R-159"

LODU’s argument even don’t exist!

4) LODU is try to prove that we stole helmet’s model:

And what we can see?
Helmet’s strap is different.
And helmet’s model has modeled rivets.

Our model looks like LODU model?
But this is not an argument. Does Mr. LODU can call every helmet, alike his one as him created?

But west community are ignore our arguments.

This is look like notion against us.

This situation blocking release of 47 new models of soldiers, ammunitions, radios and textures with volume about 200 mb just because some texture looks like textures of another author.

Every "LODU" can unpack else’s .pbo, find some “carbage” in face of unused textures and declare violation against his work?
Every "LODU" can request for release closing if he will see radio alike his? Even if addon doesn’t have such radio?

This is wrong.

All addons are created with enthusiasm and they completely free .

Lodu which initiated the blocking distribution of our package VDV on news sites to our appeals to him through "Private Messages" - Forum BIS is not responsible.

We are even ready to make a new model of helmets in version 1.1 that would remove any doubt as to authorship.
But Mr. Lodu - silent ...

Thank for your attention.
