| This is why Guest posting is a bad idea. IMO, guest should be able to read, but not post. |

mrbrown: Why? People have been asking the same kind of questions and have been registered. This isn't a guest-only problem. Would you answer this question if he wasn't a guest?
Guest: Unless you know the actual format of the file, you won't have much luck extracting information. With a name like bin it could be anything. Also, there's legal problems with extracting data for your own uses - the data belongs to the company who made the game.
Unfortunately, we can't help with either. Sorry. |

Depends on the country and the actual use. If it's for personal use, French laws permits it.

The problem is that it makes people feel better/justified/comfortable about asking gray-area legal questions. And no, I wouldn't answer his question if he wasn't a guest, just like I didn't respond to the last guy asking about extracting models and textures (who I believe is this guy, from a diff. IP). Out of all of the registered users we have, it's very rare for someone to post as Guest, and usually it's because they forgot to set the cookie. |
