There are sound mods on my site (EM section)
There's also a few music tracks created by a friend of mine. If anything fits in with
your modding, feel free to use it.

Thanks SeeJay I will look into it,.
I am looking to see if people want to collab with me on this project there are lots of little mods around but I was thinking if this can turn into a big mod that includes a lot of other modders help it gives them a chance to update thier EM files at the same time and they can release it standalone along side with this, this community seems pretty tight nit usually a lot of the same people I see are on here daily so a community mod could be fun.

Yep, pretty much what Marvin has been saying, if its software or you want some sort of limited control over your creation you make an end-users licence file there are plenty of these templates available on the net, usually whenever I create something from scratch I put it under the GPL (General Public Licence) this covers much of what you would generally want, it keeps the software available for anyone to modify, distribute, use so long as it remains freeware and is not sold.
Also like others said, you can do what you want with freeware software except sell it for that you still need to make sufficient changes to the source code to for it to be deemed original works. Like ROTT (Rise of the Triad) and Duke3D (Duke Nukem 3D) these are now both freeware with the source available to compile only versions kicking around these-days are heavily modified source ports
.
It goes without saying that I believe all the images required to mod this game come under the trademark for this game however the copyright extends to modification and distribution of modified material but the rights belong to the developer of the this game and you can't use the material provided in for your own game. However I think if we are going to discuss copyrights we should make a new thread and keep this one to discussions on the project
Oh I checked with Vice as well, he gave an updated list of numbers and which gun they were for, I modified the Legacy customization documentation to reflect this. He also said that the sounds were global so nope we do't have the ability to make separate sounds per ship so I will scrap the star-wars sounds and leave this for a HULL replacement mod of some kind in the future. Currently I am asking if you or anyone else wish to contribute to replacing the gun sounds effects. I got permission from you to use your warp effect and images and the dev of the compass mod kicking around on here I got permission for that too. As always anyone who grants me permission to use or modify thier work I will credit in my own and link back to the original.
So I updated OP to reflect this is a community mod
