Hello,
I have a copyright question: I guess I can use IL-2 screens posted by other people for my PC screensaver (and by putting the author name on it is the minimum I think)?
But really are in-game computer screens copyrighted by default? Are in-game screens considered as "art"?Same question for in-game computer game videos...
I mean it's like MIDI sound files that are computer-generated and not audio files.MIDI files don't belong to anybody (I think), unless they are exact copies of original musics?
For example a MIDI file of a Michael Jackson music "Thriller" : does the MIDI interpretation belong to the interpreter or not at all?
Same question for IL-2 capture screens: do I have to ask permission to download and use?
Because I would like to make a kind of collection of the best IL-2 snapshots to post on AAA...It's just an idea: I haven't started it yet...
