Hi, I'm not talking about keyboard layout more to do with game content and ideas.
For example, if someone hacked Phil's packman or hp game and was playing it for free, what realistically could he do about it? Not much because the moment he tried to press charges on the Sarah game for example, ok the Sarah character is original but he's using other characters from the hp world that we all know and as such those characters are property of the hp trademark as it were. So to be honest even if Phil wanted to do something then realistically he couldn't. ok you may get slated by the blindness community for doing such a thing but if you want a free game then who's really going to care. Not that I'm encouraging it I'm not I'm merely stating the facts as I see them. The real long and short of it is that unless the material used is strictly original and not using characters or materials concerning legally protected property, for example star wars star trek, Harry potter, anything like that, then by said developer taking action all he or she is going to do is create a much larger problem for themselves. Yes the person who originally hacked the game may be in trouble but that's nothing compared to what trouble any such developer would be in. all I'll say here is look what happened with Thomas a couple of years ago and that game was no longer in production anyway. -----Original Message----- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of shaun everiss Sent: 14 January 2010 17:05 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] using a program called art money for game cheating. well doom1 2 at least quake1, duke nukem 1 2 3 3d and maybe others all use the same keyboard layout. So they couldn't get us over that nore the weapons, there are always missile type, several guns and at least one automatic or various types. There is usually one big weapon and maybe another one. there are mines. true they are called different names but its basically the same concept. I have also seen clons and hacks of stuff. The docs will say its based off something and then give credit to the origional product and company, some things are recompiles of the same thing or different things under the same name but the origional stuff is quoted and in that respect it happens all the time. I suppose if we blatently used the lagit name weather by accident if one was already active no matter what it was then there would be a case but we have loads of leeway as long as we are not obvious about it.
