  • The game is very commonly distributed illegally from many sources
  • The mod does not seek to supply a user with a copy of the game per se, instead it tries to provide a modded version of the game (admittedly, the same thing)
  • The mod makes an attempt (a feeble attempt) to verify the existence of the SH3 executable before installing.
  • The mod does not have a way to verify the legitimacy of any SH3 exe it finds.


I have contacted Ubisoft and their response indicates they are not interested or concerned about this situation.

For now, status quo remains.
Thanks Onkel Neal
For pointing this out, now let's put the misunderstandings aside and focus on a game SH3 Not SH4 or SH5 (more recent games and rightfully more protected by copyright)
Thanking Ubisoft for giving us "room to maneuver" (more freedom to mod sh3)
