Enough about X1

A little OT, but, we can include zillion readme´s that state that 3rd parties cannot use these mods to make payware addons. BUT, we still dont have the permission from UBI to modify the files that come with stock SHIII, so we cannot copyright them = X1 can use them as it likes. As far as I know, X1 has asked permission from UBI, so there´s nothing we can do.

According to EU law you don't 'have to copyright' anything of your intellectual/creative output - it's automatically protected...

But - let's stay realistic - the only way to fight X1 is NOT to buy their titles AND to stay ahead of the game. If X1/Combatplanes do continue in the known way, they are always way BEHIND the modding scene.

That's a rather bad business model in the net age:rotfl: :rotfl: ! - at least as long there are enough sites left pumping out the genialistic stuff created by our coding gods for free!

:hmm:
