You can always decompile it. This is technically illegal, though.

EDIT: If you want to send it to me, I'll look into decompiling it.

If they released the plugin without source code, they must provide the source.
But if they never released plugin at all (keep it private) nothing illegal here.

Hello we our well aware of our legal responsibility and we are well within our legal rights to withhold the source code to our product. Our public version will be available as a seperate plugin that is in no way linked to amxmodx.

Our lawyer has sent a Cease and Desist order to Dicez for the attempted theft of our property and at the recommendation of my legal representation I am warning everybody else that attempts to steal, gain un-authorized access, reverse engineer, or infringe on any of our intellectual copyrights; that legal action will be taken against you and all court costs will be covered by you.

I would appreciate it if this topic was removed or closed.

Thank you,

Please refrain from trying to scare people with your false information.
As you were told by BAILOPAN, you are at fault. It is a violation to disclose the source of an AMX Mod X plugin. We have all right to decompile your plugin and release the source.

Feel free to contact BAILOPAN with further issues. I dont want you to fill forums with incorrect information.

Our plugin is no longer available on amx and our souce does not legally require disclosure, I've already discussed this with a legal professional. I am not trying to scare anybody intentionally, we just don't appreciate people trying to steal our property.
