having the content may be illegal but producing code that reads/imports it is not. the format isnt patented (afaik) so it's not illegal to have code that reads a format (like HL2 models). if that were so i'd imagine microsoft would have a field day with openoffice. and no i wont bash snipe again because theres no reason to, not that i was in the first place -mike _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
