Being possibly the worlds number one Jeff Gerstmann fan I am outraged. Though I am going to wait till the facts are out first before I deal out that rage.

How much of a leap is it to go from Hammer to Max? I've had a dabble in Max before but nothing serious. Would it take a lot to learn the basics?

If you seriously wish to act on your idea in any way, without being afraid of having legal issues, a good idea is to send a copy of the game design doc to yourself via registered post. Once you receive it DO NOT OPEN IT! It should be date stamped and have a seal on. This is not a fool-proof method to secure your ideas but goes a long way in legitimising that you came up with them. I am from the UK but I am sure there would be something similar to this in most countries.

P.S. I have not tried this myself with game docs but a relation of mine did do this with some song music sheets and lyrics in his youth. He is the one who suggested it to me. I felt it was applicable here.

Ha, I remember when my friend was doing some work for this mod. He worked on some of the sound for Off Limits.
