Different countries have different laws, that's that, no problem. So the game will come without certain markings, no problem. I would like, preferrably, to be have a historically accurate sim. Would I like the publisher (developer etc) to take any risks in giving me that sim - no of course not, don't be daft. I wouldn't want a loophole where you change the config file here and there etc. What would seem usual, is that a game, whether it be racing cars, planes, whatever, would allow modders to change skins - a new paint job for Valentino Rossi's bike etc. That's not a loophole, that's common practice. If a modder then put graffiti on an object saying something offensive (swearing, race abuse etc), that would not be the fault of the publisher, and the same would go with markings. For example, what if you have a favourite pilot, that flew with a badge on his plane, and you had the artwork for that badge - does the game have to be specifically programmed to stop you adding any art, camoflage etc, just in case you added something else that you shouldn't have? That would be ridiculous. I'd personally assume the game will allow users to make their own skins, with camoflage etc, and if someone made something offensive, that wouldn't be the responsibility of the publisher.
