Typical!

Unfortunately it does sort of prove that mod-making tends to be a mugs game; a modder has very few rights unless they create a lot of 100% new material (eg new skins, sounds,etc) and are willing to pay a lawyer to go after people.

And obviously in this case Ubisoft is quite willing to tolerate X-1, presumably because they want the "MS Flight Sim" effect, where add on packs, even if low quality, increase the stature and hence sales of the original game.

Solution: Make your own game, or go open-source. In this day and age, I reccommend the latter.
