Will someone please reply to my emails?
I have sent various emails direct, and recently via Kieron requesting permission to use extracted game models in fan art, zero replies.
I have tried to go around this in the correct manner, where as I could have flooded the internet with renders already, with no traceability.
Oh, and Eris...
...please don't lock this stating 'email CCP' like you did for a similar post previously - if they aren't replying I have no way of knowing if they are getting my mails. 
I'm fine with any other reason for a lock though :)

Avon, you should have mail hitting your inbox within the next few minutes. However, I can answer here as well.
Extracting ship, station, etc. models from the client is a violation of the EULA. The only times this has been allowed outside of the studio is with express consent of CCP after having agreed to/signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
Since ship model extraction has been requested a high number of times, there is discussion over releasing a "ship model pack". However, the focus at this time is the content patch and there are no immediate plans to start working on such a pack.
Remember, Grasshopper, patience is a virtue.
Interestingly I sent a signed NDA to CCP HQ ages ago when I was accepted to Polaris.
I wonder how I stand now? :D

Does this mean we can't ignore you anymore Avon?  
Right, that's it.
We're through.
Pack your bags, it's over.
And the plants are mine, you can't take them.

Avon, what about:
.stp
.ste
.step
.sat
.igs
.ige
.iges
???
Honestly?
No idea. :)
The problem would be being able to fix conversion errors for formats I can't load - if the specs are available I guess most formats are possible.

.obj -> .stp is what I would need to get a good usable model. I need the translation to support NURBS.
What rendering s/w do you use?

I dunno if you have actually done it yet, but if not I remember while wildcard was doing it he come into massive complications, dont think I can really go into more detail
Well, obviously I haven't done it because that would be a eula violation ...
... but if I had, I would have probably managed most ships and be currently working on stations and jumpgates.

I would probably manually read the .blue files because I wouldn't have written a parser for them yet. (Not that I am any good with python anyway.)
If I was to do things properly I guess the ultimate goal would be to extract all the .stuff files and write a parser which can input .blue files and output 'usable' files, but that would be quite a long way off.
