There's a so called fictional jet over at 'all-node' t5jt23ab.zip and it looks very much like Rick's Provost... maybe it's only textures?

Kind regards

Checking what can be opened in the file list a Rick's paintshop logo comes up.

Sayas textures only but the model seems to be in the package

Yes - I saw it too and wondered until I looked at it. All there except the original textures and they could listed the .cfg file!

Perhaps Marcelo should be rated as 'quarantined' whenRick wakes up? :worried:

Is there a contact email for this muppet? I'll send him a message explaining the rights and wrongs of his actions...but don't expect much in the way of an apology. Copyright means nothing here in Brazil :brick:

The sad truth is that many countries have not subscribed to, or understand, the concept of international copyright.

I have little understanding of the international legalities of this but in many parts of the world no-one gives a damn.

I lived in Central America for a few years and once heard a boom-box blasting out the Beatles 'Strawberry Fields' , in Spanish, to a Ska beat..and the lyrics had been changed....I doubt anyone got any royalties for that.

In many parts of the world if it's there, they'll take it and use it.
