I am doing the budget for my project, which is an animated series, and after a good time of testing I'm probably going to use CC4 and IC8 along with Unreal Engine for this purpose. My question is if for this purpose in particular I would need a Standard or Extended license for the different content I would acquire from Content Store and Marketplace (like Hair Builder, Prime Hairstyles, and a good amount of marketplace available clothes)? Thank you. license marketplace

An Extended License is only needed for commercial games and applications. Peter Forum Administrator www.reallusion.com

However the OP is rendering in Unreal so he WOULD need an extended license to bring certain assets into Unreal to render Right? So yes and no would be the correct answer lol Or did I miss some changes?
