Nope. Not "some" euros. If people are gonna be payed it must be "proper" euros.
On the other hand if they're not intersted in SH anymore the "noble" thing to do would be to release the code ...


Yeah right.......

Perhaps a controlled release of source coordinated by Neal with confidentiality agreements with Ubisoft signed by any who work on the code?

That would happen just a quickly as allowing the U.S. to fly over France to bomb Libya did back in the '80s.

Negotiate a license agreement with Ubi. You'll get a lot farther that way than by posting here. *shrug*

People have been bending over backwards kissing arse since SH3
to have just a small chance to improve this series.
And we got SH5 as an answer.
Then got slapped in the face AGAIN!


I'll not have anything to do with any new Ubi Games EVER again.
Je suis fait avec des produits Ubisoft!

Careful! Ubi will take your money and then give you the source to SH5, the ipod version.

No,
they will take your money, take your IPod,
blow up oil rigs off the coast of Texas,
then surrender when confronted!

Once War reparations are levied?
It will take them decades to repay them!
All the while ripping us off!

And our fearless Leaders will allow this to go on.

if you dont think the developers look into the modders work when making their 'patch' you are mistaken.

Besides there is specific language that allows the developers to use modder's efforts without recompense. It is considered UBI's intellectual property... end of line.

I don't think any Modder cares if they use thier work.
I can see several Guns I did for VonDos re-done in SH5.
I consider that a very big compliment myself!
It's the BS that keeps getting thrown in our faces I'm ticked about.
