This piece of crap is just full of ripped LOWW textures. He's so dumb he's not even re-named the textures.

LOL, how do you find all these? Avsim was advertising this guy earlier this week.

Martin noticed some of his LOWW textures within a set of AVSIM screen shots.

I downloaded it & found the texture folder its packed full of LOWW work. No effort to even disguise them.

I think it's time for Flytampa to have a wall of shame.

That would be a great idea!!

That means we have to get rid of all those textures that we "borrowed," LMAO!!!! (Kidding of course.)

In this months edition we have a new winner in the untalented loser contest:

"Jon-Jon Santiago", who went on a major ripping rampage with our textures ranging from pavement and skidmarks to jetways and baggage carts.

Untalented loser, I like that term, instead of the wall of shame, we can have a wall of untalented losers.

Martin, I sent Tom Allensworth an email after seeing this in the Avsim library and the screenshots in the forum at Avsim as well. The file was promptly removed.

Are these textures from the Subic scenery?

Yes, unfortunately an amount between 30 and 50% of that scenery consists of George's KBOS and KSEA textures. The rest of the textures I can't tell if he did himself or got elsewhere.

God knows I am (almost) always helpful to other devs when they write me with questions, but when I see people just ripping textures we spent hours or days to paint I reach my boiling point, especially when they also get a newspost on simflight about their great new achievement. Its morally just wrong, even beats piracy.

I agree wholeheartedly. In fact, in cases such as this it is truly a wonder that developers like FT don't decide to close up shop. On a similar line of thought, the crap Vauchez has had to deal with on his forum regarding the delays with the PDX scenery is downright pathetic. If I were him I would have publicly thanked those who posted such hateful things for putting a permanent end to his releasing the scenery.

A better moderator would have taken care of that crap at Flightscenery, gildahu was let back in more than once. The others could have been banned from the get go and things would not have got so out of control.
