Glad I could help.

be carfull with that picture!!!
you know what it meens...

Well, hes making a WW2 shooter, so I guess there will be even more of this stuff.

But then he needs rights to show this.
And thats not cheep...

to show what?? who has the rights on a swastika? and who is gonna be paid?

you just cant host it in germany i think. but i may be wrong

You could use this one to be on the save side:

Otherwise I would honestly ask a lawyer.
A lawsuit would be really expensive and stressful.

uhm.. If i use another sign than a swastika, that´s like i would hush up my History.

There was hitler
There were the SS
There was the swastika as NS Symbolic.

That are facts.. I hate it to not show them in historic based games. That´s like making "James ryan" without germans.. D-Day without germany of 1945...

If making a game, based on history.. Then be correct.

yea.. it'd also be like, need for speed without a toyota, grand turismo without a porshe, what i mean is, they pay for using those elements, you mau have to do that if you choose to be perfectly accurate, ps, i know nothing of that sign or what it means.. based my reply on what i thought in terms of using copyrighted/restrictive elements...

probably wont look on this thread again so feel free not to reply to this ^^

It has nothing to do with copyright.
It has nothing to do with historical correctness.
It has nothing to do with personal feelings.

Computer games are not authorized as culture / art here in germany.
Therefore it´s illegal to use "symbols of unconstitutional organisations".

Conclusion: If it´s really important for you, then ask a lawyer.
Nobody can (and should) give you an advise here.

Absolutely right. In fact, it is not allowed in Germany to use this sign. You dont have to call a laywer to know that.
