It is not that alone, he cannot make a law suit for using TK-17 renders. They are technically illegal to use. Plus the use of the heavily modded assets are used without permission. Even a member here from the old t17 forum was highly upset his work is being used without his permission etc. Some other assets may even require payment to use but are use because people download them prepacked without payment.he doesn't make enough money to afford the suit. That and the fact he releases the game to public domain which forfeits copyright claim. In the US there is a case where Getty Images was sued by woman over copyright of her own Photographs because she donated them to the library of congress. They took her images, watermarked them and established their own copyright and it worked in their favor.
I distinctly remember telling him to take it up with BoN, cause even though I understand his frustration, it doesn't matter to us cause we're pirates. Hence BoN cant sue anyone even if he had the money.
