Hey Nigel friend!You have to be a software designer and producer to understand the other side!
If someone makes a tool, NOT for sale, but available to make things with it and you get it, you can consider you borrowed it. So the owner can tell you: "If you make money with MY tool you have to give me some!"
IF the tool owner let you use the tool under his conditions, you can only do what is agreed upon.
If we don't like the tool owner conditions, then what do we do? Write our own tool!
Can we? Very difficult because this would imply having the iClone data formats or doing reverse engineering. Both things are precluded by the EULA.
(of course we also have to learn, assembler, C++, C#, SQL, and whatever is needed!):w00t:
Take it this way:
Reallusion says: "Hey guys... I have this tool! Want to make stuff with it? OK! Then let's agree on this: I make the tool, you make the stuff, we share 50-50. I cannot sell stuff if you don't make it. You cannot make stuff if I don't lend you my tool!" :D
In other words and as a response to your question: You own 50% of the mesh!
Plain, plain democratic business!
