That's actually a pretty good motto to live by.
OFF3 has been hyped like so many other games before that we've had to pay for, and like so many others, I doubt if it will offer any major improvements over its predecessor. Despite some of the outrageous and stupendous claims the team has been making (some of which completely defy the abilities of CFS3's program engine). Never did like the mod all that much to begin with. I'll take Red Baron 3D's FULL CANVAS JACKET over OFF any day of the week. That was a game that had taste, style, and came at a great price. Too bad nobody plays it anymore. The sites that I used to download a lot of skins off of are now slowly dying, and it is becoming an old relic of the past... but it still was a helluva lotta fun. |

If they edited the core files and then redistributed them, yep, it would.

I guess the question is where they crossed the line if they did. Perhaps Microsoft would know?

When I downloaded OFF, I also got the main CFS3 engine in the main installer of the download (engine and the engine files; found it was possible to run CFS3 via these files without much change save for the loss of my preferences and career files). In that case, it's illegal. Some of the basic coding files had been edited, too (physics files differed from my CFS3 original copy).
OBD, after dealing with them in the past, they aren't as brilliant as they'd like to think. Even then, if it was illegal, it's doubtful Microsoft would even try to remember such an abominable game. They're probably still trying to bury it. |

My system:
Intel Core CPU 6400 2.13 GHz 2GB RAM Nvidia GF 7950GT OC (I've had some troubles with this card though, gets too warm all the time, freezing up my games when I play...never when I play OFF though). I'll have to look up my specs. for OFF later on, don't know right now, but I agree that the game looks pretty neat from time to time!

Yes, OFF looks promising. In the videos, did you notice the working rockets and exhaust smoke from the two-seaters? Here are some more details about phase 3:
