A note on the commercialisation of assets derived from Daz3D products
To assuage worries about the commercial licenses available to me for the commercialisation of VRChat avatars using the Daz3D Genesis 9 body as a base, please read on.
According to the 3.0 Interactive License Addendum to the general End User License Agreement, which can be found here:
3.0 Interactive License Addendum
(...)
For any User who has purchased one or more Interactive Licenses via the DAZ store, the terms of this Addendum 3.0 apply to all Content for which the User has purchased such an Interactive License.
For any User who has purchased a Game Developer License for “Daz Originals” the terms of this section 3.0 apply to all Content which contains "Daz Originals" in the Artist Name, regardless of the presence of additional artist names also in that field.
All Content that can be identified according to the criteria stated above in this Addendum 3.0 shall hereinafter be referred to as "CRT Content". The terms of this Addendum 3.0 do not apply to any Content other than CRT Content.
(...)
User warrants and is responsible to ensure that the CRT Content used in User's applications are not available to end users in their native formats and that every effort is made to protect the CRT Content from theft or copyright infringement by employing technology, asset protection, encryption or any other resources at User's disposal.
Three-Dimensional Works. DAZ wishes to encourage the expansion of the catalog of CRT Content available to its users. Accordingly, User may access, use, copy, and modify the CRT Content to create one or more derived or additional three-dimensional works provided that:
-
any such derived or additional three-dimensional works are designed to require or encourage the use of CRT Content available through the online DAZ store either by (i) requiring the use of such CRT Content in order for the works to function, or (ii) allowing only limited function when the works are used other than in conjunction with CRT Content from the online DAZ store; and
-
upon receipt of a written request from DAZ, User immediately ceases any and all distribution of the art that User has created from the CRT Content, if DAZ has determined, in its sole discretion, that such art (i) is substantially similar to or is a clone of existing Content; (ii) fails to require the use of Content available through the online DAZ store, or (iii) otherwise violates the provisions of this EULA.
(...)
While incorporation of the CRT Content into User's applications is authorized as set forth above, User expressly agrees and acknowledges that any discrete sale of CRT Content separate from a purchase of the User's application is allowable ONLY with express written consent of DAZ. Thus, for example, within the context of a game, the sale or purchase of the CRT Content, portions thereof, or either two-dimensional or three-dimensional derivatives thereof as a separately-purchased commodity or upgrade using items of actual or virtual worth is prohibited without prior written consent of DAZ. Written consent of DAZ may be sought at the address set forth herein.
I have bolded the most relevant parts of the above.
As I do, in fact, have written consent from DAZ to sell these avatars in this manner, I am not in breach of the License, and I am free to use these assets commercially.
