Hello all,

I'm building an ios game and I want to use some sound effects from opengameart.org. Actually I found 2 sound effects under CC-BY 3.0 license so basicly that mean I nead a permistion from the author but what happen if the author not respond to my email, Shall I just use it and mention his name in the credit game?

CC-By does not require permission.  The artist has already given permission by licensing it.  Reread the license requirements--the central thing you need to do is give credit to the author.

Awsam very quick replay thank you very much!!!

but what about an auther has more than one license such as 

CC-BY 3.0CC-BY-SA 3.0GPL 3.0GPL 2.0CC0

Can I use it as well without permission I mean Can I choose CC-By only?

If nobody is against... Can I also ask a question?

As far as CC-BY style licenses do not permit to use them in DRMs e.g. Android play store games - what is the chance that author will respond to asking for the required permission?

I.e. I'm making a strategy game and using CC-BY(-SA) music&sound from OGA. I plan to publish it for free at Android play store as soon as it's finished. Do I have a chance to get a permission, or do I have to roll back and forget about CC-BY content? (or ask the Author(s) for permission before inclusion of the content in-game in order not to seek replacement afterwards)

Note that Google play doesn't force apps to have DRM.
