Ariong posted:The main thing I took away from that mod is that having the swastikas be toggled by a button hidden in-game is an extremely stupid and funny solution to the problem. It's the extremely half-rear end approach of "I know there are a lot of people who don't want to see nazi content so I am disabling the swastikas, but I also know there are people who very much want to see nazi content and between these two groups who can say what is right?" Because heaven forbid you make an editorial decision regarding nazis.

^^^ i dunno, context matters. if the idea is that you get Space Battleship Hindenburg blinged out with OP technology as your power fantasy base in the contemporary wasteland it'd be super weird to keep the swastikas, but in a mod that seems to be about wandering a period setting and faithfully (within FO4 limitations) representing historical artifacts it's just a pretty workaday museology debate orange juche posted:Its ok to admit you don't see the problem with having a HIDDEN NAZI BUTTON THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE BUT ITS STILL THERE FOR HISTORICAL ACCURACY YOU DON'T HAVE TO TOUCH IT JEEZ STOP CRITCIZING ME FOR PUTTING SWASTIKAS ON MY poo poo ... yes? you can? like, that would be a legitimate choice the author could have made. the question was whether there's also going to be a picture of hitler with a lipstick print taped up in the captain's quarters or whether the entirety of the swastika disclaimer is about the paint scheme if the entire issue is the option to proactively choose to see the historical livery of one airship among a fleet of them in which it is the only German representative, where the author could easily have gone all-German if they just wanted to play the fig leaf game, yes i would 100% download and use this mod with no worries about it conflicting with my antifascist values? i mean i wouldn't press the button and would take the R100 over the Hindenburg any day of the week in any case, but if there's nothing else suspicious then you're tilting at a real windmill here—if a model hobbyist paints accurate insignia on their german models, it doesn't mean anything by itself; but if they only have german models it's a red flag but like i said if the author is actually a huge secret nazi and you have to chant the 14 words to unlock the promenade deck or some poo poo someone please let me know before i make the mistake of downloading it; otherwise it looks p neat?

There's no need to defend the mod.

HookedOnChthonics posted:is it just the hindenburg's tail flash or is there other nazi stuff in the mod too? b/c unless it's crewed entirely by SS hatsune mikus i gotta say this just looks like a mod about letting you explore virtual versions of 1930s airships and, spoiler alert, the most famous of them had some big ol very prominent swastikas Artist intent is very much a thing, and the intent is "I gots to have my swastikas on my Nazi airship in 2021, but I don't want people yelling at me about my swastikas! ". They're either actually a nazi or loving stupid.

You didn't look at any of their other work. You're making an Ancient aliens level "It's Nazis" without even attempting to look at the broader picture, and the broader picture is that they really, really love their historical recreations. that's just the first few. The Age of Airships 2 mod they made is a time-travelling escapade with many different eras and locales, only maybe 1 or 2 has anything to do with Nazi Germany. I can't believe you people have been having this argument for this many pages without doing the slightest bit of checking-over of your claims. Christ.

". ... if the mod was called "GLORIOUS REICHSZEPPELIN HINDENBURG PLAYER HOME [56K no]" and had only the one, yes, i might agree with this. my whole line of enquiry here is that the author sure put a lot of effort into the apparent 85%+ of this mod dedicated to British and American cars and boats airships that the vast majority of nazi fetishists don't have anywhere near the patience or subtlety for, no? Modders are modders, of course--but by that exact measure they usually wear those intentions much more openly and single-mindedly than this and would also probably have it enabled by default, yes? Genuinely asking if anyone can point to other gross poo poo in the mod or the user's profile; i wouldn't be surprised at all if it was there but if it isn't, and the mod is otherwise on the up and up, this one scans as crotchety historical modeling griping and not fash apologia fake edit: the trailer heavily features shooting the fash and kkk (and some soviets); it looks like it's supposed to be an indiana jones total conversion
