I don’t understand. If I make something that doesn’t mean I’m not infringing someone’s works.

Point: regardless of the HOW it was made, the process of figuring if it infringes on something is the same. It’s still not always easy and due to the shittyness of current IP laws, even long time professional artists sometimes make mistakes.

I am familiar with SEGA owning a software patent on Crazy Taxi’s “arrow above car points where to go” because my interests in creating games happened to lead me to an article stating such.
That seems related to HOW my works are made, to me. I know of no other way to find that out.

Like this one in Midtown Madness? Did MS actually have to pay SEGA to do the same thing? Both were originally released in 1999, it seems. I’m unsure which came first, but does it even matter if SEGA managed to get the patent first?
