thread about possible "cracked" code or scripts gone again?
 

Can i please be informed why this thread (No1 and No2) dissapeared again,
tHNX

I'm not being disagreeable, I would like to see life breathed back into CoD myself but what is being discussed is totally illegal.

i guess its a topic that anyone that want to follow will have to do it in another forum

as i'm only a little virtual pilot, and don't know anything about "legal" matters,so are Team Daedalus,team HSFX, team UP and other modders doing illegal things?
just a question !!!! I havn't a clue so i'm just wondering
Thnx

What forum can I follow this discussion at?

1c seems determined to keep ripping off their customers.

It's now in the modding section:

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=36521

Team Daidalos are legally making changes to IL-2 1946, as they're the official dev team for IL-2 1946.

I would assume that HSFX (if thay're a group) and the other mod pack (forgit it's name) are technically illegal.

They're tollerated by 1C, however, for reasons they'll never publically say, but I suspect it's because it's keeping IL-2 alive and there is talent in some work that is done by that crowd.

Also the community is much more tolerant of glitches bugs and faults in the work of the illegal modders. Issues which in an official patch would have the forums full of people calling for blood and wanting the development team executed are generally overlooked in a mod.

Not always though, I have never witnessed the levels of ingratitude as I have in a flight simming community.

I see the word "illegal" used a lot.
Can someone please identify under what statute (in your country) modding would be illegal.

Thanks.

Under what law?

Cracking is the illegal part.

Yep ... and being illegal it provides a very nice buffer against any crippling NG style litigation should any modder ever step on any big corporate toes ... "sorry your honor but we do not endorse that product its actually illegal they hacked our code" ...

Then you haven't been part of a PvP-community in an MMO :P Flightsim-communities have nothing on those.

I doubt very much if it's "illegal" anywhere. You could try and make a civil case for breach of copyright but that would involve trying to track down modders and sue them in a court in their own country. I very much doubt you'd find any law to extradite people over a civil matter!

Of course all this would cost millions and get you no-where but it would line a few more lawyers pockets!

alot of things are or were "illegal" it does not mean we should not do them....but i guess you are the type who would have turned in escaped slaves just cuz the law compelled you to do so...

Yes, because escaped slaves and cracking a piece of software has SO much in common...:rolleyes:

Seriously? That's your comparison?

yups, its not a bad analogy that one

but you dont get it, do you ?

'sec, just let me add some rolleyes so maybe putting it in teen speak helps you out :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

any better now ?

I was hoping for the creation of a tool set similar to the one's that the devs planned for us. I don't think that we should start creating planes, or messing with the ones we have. Just some tools for the map alteration, and to fix general game bugs. ;)

Not really, Zappy. Care to explain instead of being a tosspot?

So form conspiracy to slavery to insults by the time we get to page 2 huh.............

Well done guys.
