It can be very difficult to track down code thieves. But then again, I'm working on similar maps but with a more WC3 feel to them so I guess it can't be that hard to make. Let's hear it for clever use of pathfinding missions. wooooooooooo!

The problem with mine are that they're mod only maps due to the amount of additions I added to the maps, and they'll be TX for more flavor. Upgrades are made of awesome and win.

I know this is an old thread but I used to talk to that guy and I never see him use stolen maps with his name in them. All the ones I played with him looked new to me. Maybe its a new thing he decided to do:\

Every now and then I check out what’s playing on RA2. I estimate about 1 in 3survival maps are copies of my maps BuildtimeX or the Lunatic moon remake.
Someone told that prick map4u how to unlock my maps and now I see my latest maps with minor changes and his name. Sometimes he moves waypoints but mostly he just adds rocks or crapy cliffs to force the AI into bottlenecks.
Next time you see one of his maps look at the triggers, if you know my work you will see if it's mine.
The last map he stole was Matrix. I used a program to make it and no way does he have a clue how to edit the main triggers, however he did find the text trigger with my name on it.
I really don't mind if someone wants to remake one of my maps but it must improve something not noob it all to hell.

Yeah I understand there the bottle neck part and the changes are stupid imo. The map was made good from start didn't need editing. And I know your work so If I see a map I will have a look ;)

Are you talking about "Map4You" or someone else called "Map4U".
If you mean Map4You then yes.
I doubt you are since none of the 2 people of "Map4You" owns YR.

Dude, quit crying....it just a game. I have learned from u, and no one has taken the time to teach me anything.. Are u not aware that the student often surpasses the teacher.
P.S. There is no new thing under the Sun. It's all been done before!
Keep up the good work. peace.........

So there you are, it's about time.
WTF, you learned something? NOT by the editing I saw. I saw some fast map alterations and a new name.
Do the work and reap the rewards. Plagiarize and piss off the people that you could of learned from.
Seriously, if I saw any reasonable attempt at creation I would have said nothing or even gave a complement. Unless you’re really slow the changes you made took about five minutes. The latest map you copied took me a couple days to create. Now you see why I got pissed :mad:
I give **** away all the time; if you would have made half an effort you could have had my unfinished maps, codes, or whatever.
Oh, the done before thing, if you look at them (survival maps), all but a couple are copies of my work and even they were based off my edits.

I seriously doute that was really him, probably some guy trying to get your goat. Consider the join date and just how he suddently found this thread randomly. Doesnt matter though, map stealing is wrong.
I have to agree with him about learning though, though I didn't steal your maps flyingZ, I have opened a few of them and learned quite a bit about triggers! :) Especially from your Multiplayer campaign mission, I forget what it's called exactly, something about beating yuri and the soviets...starting with just a seal Guards and an engi for both players. Then some Nukes appear later on. It was fun, played it multiple times. But I learned from that map how to work triggers. :)

Rewards....If you mean recognition...Ive got that, buts that not why I make maps. I enjoy it...just like im sure u do. I will not stoop to your level, and sling insults at ya.. But I will tell u this: Pride can be detremental to your health..So my advice to you is learn to get along; give everything away, and more will come of it. and don't be so full of your self. It's not just about you. We are all capable of Extraordinary creativity, we are creative creatures by design. And finally if it bothers u this much..then maybe you should stop.You've definitely surpassed him in douchbaggery already.
Ive never heard of you, or played any of ur maps...So wat would u know?

Right with fenring on this one...
Buy my thoughts...
First, he is not slinging insults at you, and the only reason you got any recognition is because people never realised that all of "your" maps were actually his.
Its not about pride, its about not wanting your work, that you have so carefully made and designed, stolen by noobs like you who arent willing to put the effort in to make a decent map, so you steal his maps, put a bunch of useless noobie crap on them and plaster your name on it.
The only reason you are trying to have him "give everything away" is because you want to steal it.
Yes, we are all all capable of producing a fine peice of work. The prime difference is the people who are willing to put the time and effort into it and the people that aren't.
Maybe you should follow your own advice and stop stealing other people's maps!

I have admitted to nothing...Where'd you get that idea? I started to tell u wat is i do, but u got nasty about it. So here goes, wat i have used and manipulated are the ini.files within the rulesmd.ini. Now those files belong to Westwood or EA, so how is that Stealing. Can't Steal what does not belong to you.
And finally i asked you for proof and you had none. Put it to rest "Z". and get over it!:color3:

Yes, you admitted to stealing right here:

That's called stealing. The .ini files don't "belong to Westwood" - the .ini files as is are created by Westwood but the copy of the game anyone buys belongs to them. And using that copy to modify an .ini does not mean Westwood owns the modification!
Even by your false and distorted logic, you still stole something; from Westwood instead of from FlyingZ. You've admitted you are a no-talent hack who has to rip other peoples ideas and lie about them and deceive people into thinking they were your own ideas.

Oh my good lord, and I thought I had seen some bad flames. Now I never thought Stat's post would be considered nonsense because, besides the fact that he can type better than you anyway, he can actually make an arugment that does not collapse on him. You're argument sucks

I gotta say.... I agree with Stat, you just ripped off Westwood. But if you just ripped of Westwood, you obviuosly ripped of FlyingZ too, because he modified the files first, and than you changed them. You are even worse than sg500, at least he actaully had a tiny bit of competency and has started to learn. Still, these posts are not the worst I've seen. No, wait, yes they are.
So please, do us all a favor and get lost.

Lets spell this out a bit more clearly, you took FlyingZ's work and created a derivative work without his permission. Though not stealing (that deals with actual property), you have infinged his copyright which could (in theory) lead you to be liable for substantial fines if it went to court. More realistically it just gets you labeled as a lame ripper of other people's work and thus shunned by the community.
Map4U
11-27-2007, 10:48 AM
Now Blade, your work i'm familiar with, thank you for attempting to spell this out for me, but not necessary, I must say im surprise you chose to put your input into it, not knowing all the facts. The ini.files i manipulated are there for all of us to make changes, thats the whole idea!
Flying Z thinks i used his maps, because he see similarities, if I am guilty of using these files, then we who know how to use these files, are all guilty of same thing your accusing me of.
Ive broken no law, infringed on no ones rights, and based on all the comments made regarding this subject, tell me one thing: you don't know WTF your talking about. I will continue to make maps, until i get bored with it.
Oh yea, Ive written to the strike team and they don't see anything wrong with what I've done. And their opinion is all that matters.
In closing opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one.
I will not be wasting anymore time on this stupid argument.

I actually don't think he did anything against the law, just against common curtesy, since FlyingZ isn't making a profit off of his stuff anyway.
Flying Z thinks i used his maps, because he see similarities
And because YOU SAID SO. "So here goes, wat i have used and manipulated are the ini.files within maps, yours as well as others"
if I am guilty of using these files, then we who know how to use these files, are all guilty of same thing your accusing me of
No, using an .ini file makes you guilty of nothing. Claiming someone else's idea as your own does.
Oh yea, Ive written to the strike team and they don't see anything wrong with what I've done.
And I'm sure you gave them a fair objective analysis of the situation from both points of view. :rolleyes:
In closing opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one.
You're an opinion.
Blade
11-29-2007, 05:29 PM
It seems to me that you are not, in fact, making maps. What you are doing is modding maps that other people made. If you labeled the maps as being based on FlyingZ's map of such and such a name and didn't strip out all his identifying stuff and/or it was a few decades after FlyingZ made the maps I'd have less of a problem with what you are doing. There is a difference in the level of new content you are creating between 1. Taking his map, putting down a few new tiles and moving waypoints and 2. Looking at his map and creating a new but similar one from scratch.
Strike Team are not an authority on copyright issues and though I'm not a lawyer with great indepth knowledge, if they advised you you did nothing wrong, they know less than I do. I may not nessesarily agree with copyright law as it stands in many countries, but I do understand the concept of derivative works, which you clearly do not.
You are of course probably right that you will go on "making" maps until you get bored as there is little we can/will do to stop you but you will get nothing but scorn from anyone who understand what you have done in the editing community.

Umm... dude, not only is your vocabulary about on par with a kindergartener's, but your grammar is absolutely atrocious. Seriously, I might have sympathized with you to some degree, had you spoken like an adult and not answer people's questions with grade-school insults. Taking a person's maps, opening it up in FA2, adding noobtastic qualities to it does not make you a person worthy of even the lowliest respect. In the time it probably takes you to modify FlyingZ's kickass maps, just about anyone here with FA2 and even mediocre skill could make a survival map that runs circles around the sub-standard thievery you put out. Within a day, any one of said people could make a map that rivals Westwood's own. Now, when you create a brand-new map, with triggers and elements all your own, I will take back my words. Until then, get the hell out of here, and take the bull***** with you.

Good for you! You can use oversized fonts and colored text where there should be none!
And if anyone was still on your side, they aren't anymore. I haven't seen any of these maps, but it's damned near impossible to think that you're the one who's original here with the way you argue.
Someone send me these maps via PM or such. I want to be able to laugh harder at this guy.
But i sure do appreciate all the attention. Many thanks.
Oh, no problem. We'll just remember you the way every caught thief has been remembered; as a bumbling fool with little value to society.

Oh, so now it my grammer and my inability to form sentences your attacking! I thought I expressed my self clearly.
It turns out the culprit is map4you, aka/dronez4 who has been doing all of this thieving of flyingz's map. Spoke to him yesterday in Yuri's lobby claim's his son did it.
I personally don't care, I know I didn't do any of the things i am accused of, simply because I don't need to, I have been editing and creating maps since Starcraft came out, I don't need flyingz's help or anybody else for that matter. And I have proof! Something you Idiots dont have.

I am playing CNC-AR2-Yuri for 3 years ago. My first Player-Nick is "LeoPanzer". I was a very good Player after this time, till just XWIS open new Server and my Clan was death. :\
In this time i have played 2 months further, till i was going off to play other games.
I have played "FlyingZ"-Campeign and Multiplayer maps in this time, too.
I was a good m8 4 FlyingZ - i was testing all maps, wich i do like.

About Map4U i cant say anywhat in this time, but i have played 2-3 maps about him.
http://www.freewebs.com/map4u/
Now i was new conection, because my computer get down - so i have to taken a old computer. :sleep:
I was searching all maps about "FlyingZ" and "Map4U" - so i was reading in any threads, that they are the most famous mapmaker in CNC-AR2-Yuri. ;)
Well, i was downloading all this maps and writing for me own ".txt-file" for each maps with instruction and details now.
<O:p</O:p
I have played all kinds of maps and i like all Mission-Maps (Coop`s) about FlyingZ and Map4U. The Survive-Maps of FlyingZ and Map4U are very different, the same by Multiplayer-Maps (12A vs. 34B, etc.).
I have get the contact with Map4U, how with Map4You (AR2 Mapmaker).
Now i am testing the maps and helping Map4U to creative any maps.

Now i was new conection, because my computer get down - so i have to taken a old computer. :sleep:
I was searching all maps about "FlyingZ" and "Map4U" - so i was reading in any threads, that they are the most famous mapmaker in CNC-AR2-Yuri. ;)
Well, i was downloading all this maps and writing for me own ".txt-file" for each maps with instruction and details now.
<o>:p</o>:p
I have played all kinds of maps and i like all Mission-Maps (Coop`s) about FlyingZ and Map4U. The Survive-Maps of FlyingZ and Map4U are very different, the same by Multiplayer-Maps (12A vs. 34B, etc.).
I have get the contact with Map4U, how with Map4You (AR2 Mapmaker).
Now i am testing the maps and helping Map4U to creative any maps.
Thank you buddy, your english may not be great, but you got a big heart.

Since i have played C&C-AR2-Yuri, I dunno saw anywhat with a copy of FlyingZ about Map4U.
Maybe did existence any maps of FlyingZ/Map4U/... with edited/modified by... - but this is normal, each second map get it.

If you mean Map4You then yes.
I doubt you are since none of the 2 people of "Map4You" owns YR
Map4U was talking with me about Map4You. I have played any maps of Map4You, but i can't talk much about him at moment.
I was talking with Map4You, too. Map4You say, that he is a old AR2 mapmaker and since AR2 is death - he has change to Yuri.
Map4U is a AR2-Yuri mapmaker and he was a fan of FlyingZ. He was try to learning, how i make good maps with triggers - how each other player, too.

If you have to writing anywhat about FlyingZ/Map4U/Map4You/... then do it!
But if you don't know about FlyingZ; Map4U and Map4You, then don't write any spam here.

That did doing each mapmaker, what is there wrong?
We all like this kinds of maps and playing it - nobody ask, what have u doing, is that legal etc.?
Should be not legal, then should be writing Westwood or EA a Message.

So please, do us all a favor and get lost.You know about FlyingZ and Map4U? No comment! - Look this link of "Yuri´s Revenge Argentina".

Within a day, any one of said people could make a map that rivals Westwood's own. Now, when you create a brand-new map, with triggers and elements all your own, I will take back my words.Until then, get the hell out of here, and take the bull***** with you.
WTF has grammer school to doing with this Thread?

I have a ask Arexsis, you are the creator of CNC-AR2-Yuri?
Look prefer this link of "Yuri´s Revenge Argentina" and try to get more information about MapMaking by EA/Westwood.
Try to get first any information about FlyingZ;Map4U and Map4You. Then u can say your own means!
P.S.
Hate player, if they say anythings about other player and they don't know about anyone.
I hope now will end this "attack" of Map4U with no just reason and no proof's.

So here goes, wat i have used and manipulated are the ini.files within maps, your as well as others.
Ooooh... hate to say it bud, but you really screwed yourself with that line. You are actually breaking copyright law as, according to the Berne Copyright Convention, everything privately made after April 1, 1989 is copyrighted to the original author even if said author has not put that dainty little © somewhere in it. Also, this wasn't under the termage 'Fair Use' which is only good for commentary, parody, news reporting, research and education about copyrighted works without the permission of the author. Also, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act is nagging at the back of my mind, but I'm not 100% sure it's relevant. If FlyingZ could provide proof in court (and that little slipup of yours can be used) and, in this day and age of frivolous lawsuits, he could sue the pants off of you if he so wished.
So, to sum up all this legal talk, way to go idiot.

Good point, my fellow idiot: Proof? Where is the Proof?
The facts are there is no proof, because ive don't nothing wrong.
EA and Westwood reserve all the rights. Now if I used this material and then sold it for profit, then I would be breaking the Law, and they EA & Westwood would be able to sue.
And your right there are alot of frivolous lawsuits, in courts houses today. Because of fools like you, who bring theses unfounded, groundless complaints to the courts, which statistically 8 out 10 are thrown out of courts, and wasted tax payers money.
The ini-files I refered to, are incorporated into the game, and are meant to be modified, hense, which is why the Olaf fella created the XCC mixer to extract these files and be able to manipulate them.
But flyingz knows all this, which is why he hasn't comment on this subject anymore. But you guys have plenty to say. Why?
I know this is an old thread but I used to talk to that guy and I never see him use stolen maps with his name in them. All the ones I played with him looked new to me. Maybe its a new thing he decided to do:\
Thanks for stepping up, and telling the truth, and no it not something new.
I never needed anybody's maps, the Web is saturated with resources and helpful advice. So why would I need flyingz maps or help for that matter.
Again, thank.

Olaf van der Spek created XCC Mixer to aid the modding community, not to aid prepubescent pissants who can't create something original.
I remember the Final Alert forums. Do you?
I've used XCC Mixer. I find making maps and mods too much of a waste of time, at least for me. so yes, I 'know how to that', as you so succinctly put it... even though the correct way to phrase that is 'know how to do that'. Learn sentence structure, since you probably don't know how to do that.
I also like how you skirted around my other statements. Making you look quite the guilty party there. You should run for public office.
