 Posted: Sun Oct 09, 2005 9:10 am Post subject: Deled LITE textures |
 |
|
the textures in the DeleD LITE package, i have looked high and low (although i probably skipped the area that has the info knowing my luck), what is the license for textures in the LIGHT package? are they 100% free?
The reason i need to know is i have a month until i need to submit my game to GameDev.net for the 4E4 competition, and i should start looking for other textures now if they aren't free. basically the rights i need for them, is the rights to redistribute the textures and the same rights for gamedev.net.
in the words of a staff member from gamedev.net

Disregarding the legal mumbo jumbo for a moment, all content that comes with DeleD (0.86 and above, before that we used to distribute some textures found on the internet) or is downloadable from our site is 100% free to use for whatever you want, so using it for some competition should never be a problem.
Strictly speaking, we don't really like the idea of people doing things like reselling the textures, and we'll try to stop them if they do. However, you are fully entitled to "grant GameDev.net the rights to permanent, non-exclusive, world-wide rights and a license, but not an obligation, free of any charge or compensation, to use, edit, copy, distribute and publish all or part of the entry, and all rights subsidiary to and derivative from the entry". |
