Dogtoes Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 I DO own a copy of the game (US Version) and I DO have a printed manual. But when I travel it sure is nice to go as light as possible. Could someone share an english copy of the .PDF manual with me? Now, for the big question. I'm sure most of you are here reading this just to get this answered: Is it right to ask for this manual? Is this considered piracy? I leave it up to you, the CMBB community. If you feel that I'm wrong in asking: please flame away. Hope you don't, but I'll understand if I get toasted and roasted over this. <ducks> -Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 It's quite simple really. The PDF part of the manual, even though in electronic format, is still as much a copyrighted work as the printed manual (or the game), and therefore protected by copyright laws.

Swift Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 While you are at it, could you send me the game ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogtoes Posted September 28, 2002 Author Share Posted September 28, 2002 Right then! Then please do me and the community a favor be deleting this entire thread! Thanks for the fast reply, Moon. I guess that the (fantastic) manual isn't that thick after all, huh? -Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tondu Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 Chris, Just some thoughts... I'm not trying to be smart but, I don't know you from Adam. Is there a CM buddy that you've already gamed with that has it? My opinion is that it would be wrong for anyone who doesn't know you personally to send it to you because without that assurance, it could be piracy. (I think.) How can anyone know for sure that you haven't just got a bootlegged copy from somewhere/ someone? If you did buy it, BFC should probably be willing to email a copy to you after you prove to them that you bought it? Maybe that is the way to go. What do others think?

Dogtoes Posted September 28, 2002 Author Share Posted September 28, 2002 No, I don't think that this is the way to go. I did not even think about copyright stuff when I made my request. I can simply make do with the printed manual as it is. (would have been nice to include the .PDF with all cd's though) Thanks for the thought though. Oh, and Swift: check your email. I sent you the whole game. Enjoy! But don't tell anybody! (hee hee) -Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got a file...we got a lovely manual we can hold in our hands! Europe: 0 Rest of the World: 1 (JK!) Moon! Kill this thread! (please) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 OK, Dogtoes, locking it up. And at the danger of repeating myself - the PDF document in the european version is not the complete manual; the 90 printed pages are not duplicated in the PDF. Locking up..
