Yea. I have seen them.
The maps can be extracted and used.
The only copywrite i know of is it can not be sold.
which goes for all maps made.
EA purchased the software license from ID software.
what that means if you make a map, and use anything from MOH/AA- textures, code, models. In addition. EA has released a Editor giving permission for owners of a copy of MOH/AA to make and distribute maps.
If at any point you deside to sell your work from a profet.
Then your in big trouble. from both sides. EA and ID software.
You could sell only if you pay a liscencing fee.
last i checked i believe it was about $150,000 for sell rights.
Although using EA's textures and designs. the price might be higher.
but full Q3 engine is like $250,000 from ID
All info is avalable on ID website.
