Well, text files and bitmaps are hardly "software."

I checked the PDF that came with my Australian copy and it does have the North carolina stuff

I can't find anything called a warranty disclaimer in my hard copy booklet, but there is a Software licence agreement at the back. It does have the stuff about not modifying the software but as Fyron says that appears to be executable "software" not text files and images.

What is different is that it talks of Canadian federal and international copyright law and says the agreement will be governed by the laws of Canada and the province of Quebec.

The key statement here is:

"create derivative works based upon the Software"

That would be mods.
