Licensing your work under CC
Friday, September 6, 2013 - 04:30

Just in case a note: Licensing your work under CC-BY-SA does not mean that you can not license it under other terms as well.

You can allow use under proprietary terms. This would allow one additional specific use, but it could not be shared with others, meaning you control the people who can use your work without having to follow free license restrictions and you can even limit the scope (only one project - a term that might require definition in the agreement though).

For example such a license could state something like "TEAMNAME may use my work for PROJECTNAME and may not re-distribute my work to others, except as part of PROJECTNAME. TEAMNAME may not sublicense my work. TEAMNAME may not use my work for any other purpose. TEAMNAME specifically may use screenshots and videos of PROJECTNAME, in which my work is displayed for marketing purposes." - something like that. Note that I have hardly any experience with proprietary licenses though and this example might have loopholes and be incomplete.

I recommend that you demand compensation in return for using your work under non-free terms. If you don't care for the money it, you can ask that they donate for a cause you approve of, for example in my case I would ask for donations to OGA or Freesound or perhaps CC.

Thanks for letting us know.

My recommendation is indeed to use the username and ideally link to their user page.

Please attribute "Iwan 'qubodup' Gabovitch" or "Iwan Gabovitch" if it doesn't fit the style/width of the remaining credits. If possible, make it link to http://qubodup.net or http://freesound.org/people/qubodup/. Not required in this case though.

CC-BY requires attribution, in case you didn't know and were using other sounds under that license.

Thanks! I hope these are useful and good luck with the release.

Since you decided to give gender to the elementals, why not a 50/50 distribution?

Here's a recording of the lines. Hope it will be useful and that you'll share the results on OGA.

It'd be curious to know how you edit them as well. I have a bunch of Audacity tutorials, which might or might not be helpful for this task: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnmtnFt6ekNVdb2DqNbbkAmHVWXbeShWS

I'm not a stick in the mud
Saturday, August 3, 2013 - 10:14

I'm not a stick in the mud but thanks for teaching me that expression.

Here's how I came to the conclusion that use in own products is prohibited:

1. Look at This submission on Sketchup. The only indication of terms is the footer link to sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/preview_tos.html. Find a section in this document that permits the users of the Service to use the works outside of the Service. There appears to be none.

2. Look at http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=79&t=38857 and http://blenderartists.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-131594.html and copy parts of the text, for example "distribute copies of derivative works" - which seems essential to the interpreation of the users that use outside the services is permitted - and try to find that exact wording on sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/preview_tos.html and google.com/intl/en/sketchup/3dwh/tos.html . It seems impossible to find.

Works taken from or based on works from 3D Warehouse can not be released under free licenses without explicit permission by the copyright holders. This also means that they can't be uploaded to OpenGameArt.

Good luck with your project but I advise you to talk to people you trust to interpret a legal document for advice (and not rely on years-old forum posts by strangers).
