Curvy 3D License

Post by Simon »

In response to queries of the Curvy 3D licence, and in particular if its usage is limited in any way, here is the end user agreement.

You will note that there are no limitations on the usage of the software for commercial projects, and no royalties to be paid apart from the original one off purchase price.

Also note that the same license applies to all official vendors of "Aartform Curvy 3D" including 3.0, 4.0, 5 and GO so if for example you bought a discounted copy on Steam you will get the same software and license terms as everyone else with no omissions to features, or extra limitations on usage.
