![]() What they do is their choice, just like people who hack and crack programs. I know people will pull the RTP from one system and use it on another, and that's fine. I never said you would go to jail, but whatever would happen (criminal or civil) is beside the point. Maybe the distinction is semantic, but seeing that it means the difference between whether you can go to jail for doing something or whether you might only be liable to pay some damages for breach of contract, semantics are pretty important. You can get sued civilly, but you will not be prosecuted for it because you cannot be prosecuted for it. All I did was clarify what you meant by 'illegal' in response to Pacman's question.īreaching a contract is not by itself a criminal offence. ![]() Why are you quoting to me the thing I already said exists? I have never disagreed with you. Here is the link to Ace's RTP License Agreement, directly from Degica's website: And in quotes, this part in particular. Will you get prosecuted for using the RTP without purchasing the maker the RTP is from? Probably not.ĭoes it make it any more legal to do so? And it does state in their license agreement that you are not allowed to use the RTP from one maker to another without owning both copies of the maker it's the terms you agree to upon downloading both the maker and its RTP. Copyright infringement can attract criminal liability, but I think that is only true if you are seeking to profit, so then it would matter if it is a commercial or non-commercial project. So it is illegal in the sense that the law will enforce a claim for damages by the copyright holder, but not in the criminal sense. That said, breaking the EULA is a breach of contract and copyright infringement. Either way, it is in the EULA and it doesn't technically matter if it is commercial or non-commercial. The EULA says that you can only use the Ace RTP in another RM if you own both RMVX Ace and the other RM, though for some reason that's not a numbered provision. When you download the RTP, you are given a licence to play any game created with RMVX Ace. Otherwise, only people who owned RMVX Ace could ever play games made with RMVX Ace that used RTP resources. It is perfectly legal to download the RTP resources without paying for RMVX Ace. Both RPG Maker VX and RPG Maker VX Ace are developed by Enterbrain, following its predecessor, RPG Maker XP. ![]() ![]() It has been superseded by RPG Maker VX Ace, which is an improved and enhanced version of RPG Maker VX. RPG Maker VX (RPGツクールVX, RPG Tsukūru VX) is a version of PC program RPG Maker series. You may use them for commercial purposes as long. It's no big deal, just a few editions of RTP and the modern tiles available from Enterbrain. ![]()
