IntelliStar 'Goodies Pack'
« on: July 25, 2011, 01:20:38 PM »
I've had numerous people tell me that there is some kind of IntelliStar 'Goodies Pack' that was posted on the forums that had some graphics from the IS in it, but apparently it was removed before I had even heard of this forum, so I missed it. Is it still available online somewhere?

Thanks in advance! :)

It's not available anymore. It was removed due to copyright concerns from TWC.

But is there any way I could get my hands on it?

If TWC complained, then my guess would be no.  This site exists pretty much thanks to the generosity of TWC, considering the large amount of copyrighted material that's featured here, and the Star team also very generously participates when they can.  Antagonizing TWC would be the very last thing anyone would want to do here.

From my understanding, I don't think TWC actually complained - it just became a concern that was brought up when TWC became more aware of this site and started participating within the community. The last thing we want to do is have to deal with copyright trouble.

Nope. ^ See above.

I was just about to post the same thread... I've been trying to create an Intellistar emulator but haven't found a suitable set of items to use, and I'm not that great at creating things.

Correct.
