Well, everytime you do something on the internet, its stored in a temp file until you leave whatever you're doing, easily found by DL'ing opening a .zip and clicking the up arrow, I know Blockland is a client, but its internet, so same theory...?

BTW, I have no idea what I'm talking about, I just got it when

i don't think torque uses temp files, so i'm pretty sure this doesn't exist.

ZIP Folders are temporary directories. ZIPs are a form of archive file, not a folder. Running a ZIP simply copys the files inside the archive into the temp directory, which is why pressing the up button goes to the temp directory.

Those are your temp files, not anything to do with anything about "stealing add-ons."

If you go to a server and download someone's custom weapon or map and it has custom torque model files, then they will be downloaded to inside your Blockland folder somewhere. You can find them there with some effort.

You will have the model, but no attributes, making this method not very useful and likely to get you flamed for lack of credit if you use the model.
