Editing a game to make it submit scores?

[Craig321]

Hi,

I just wondered if I could legally decompile a flash game, make it submit to SQL on my website without altering the game itself or copyright notices etc. and then re-compiling it?

Thanks,
Craig.

if it was copy writed then no....

Best thing to do is to email the author and ask them....
I can't see a problem provided your not making people pay to play the game.... BUT ASK ANYWAYS!

:edit
however, saying that.... if your only using the program for yourself and your personal pleasure then as long as you don't put it on a public server then they wont know about it....

Hmmm, would be a bit of a hassle emailing every author and asking them especially if I wanted to make a large online arcade or something.

Maybe if I edited games that didn't actually say copyright on them?
