Doesn't this mean that if I was to make a game using your free program and could make money off it,that you have the right to take the game from me and cut me out all together? Let me say I have no problem with giving credit to you for what looks like a great program,but it does make me wonder if I...

tl;dr Thus answer with a yes or no please i know i would have to give 100% credit and not make money off it. There is no easy "yes/no" answer the way the license currently stands. The following is ALWAYS true: You own the copyright to your own work. Whatever mapfiles and content you creat...

Sorry for the delay: hi, i'm not sure but i've heard crtitics about CC licences, they are not so proven than for instance GPL or other Free Software Licenses. Are there other Licenses appropriate for content / game content, which includes Copyleft? Btw: Is Debian accepting CC as license? Debian acce...

First the legal disclaimer: this is just friendly advice, if you're serious about trying to write your own licenses, you should consult your IP laywer ;-) If you created the map, then yes, you own the copyright on the map. And you can license it how ever you'd like. That top...

Sandbox has allowed thousands of people to become game and content creators as well as develop a community that is sharing their work and work loads. This is a phenominal education experience in both the technical aspects of game design as well as the social legal aspects of programming (specificall...

Great! I just uploaded a new version to Debian and my launchpad PPA. I'll update the installation instructions. - I use the new launcher script you provided and wrote a man page for it - When installing PAS the first time, a pretty window (GNOME/KDE/or terminal depending on how you install it) will ...

Thanks a lot - that script looks great, I'll switch to that. The ubuntu package (from the launchpad PPA) automatically installs the game content like flash-plugin-nonfree, I've been wavering back and forth between being convenient for the user (automatic but prompts before downloading content) or ha...

Hirato, thanks for looking at it! 1) will move the -r after -q 2) The PAS_downloader script is kind of a bodge until we can work out how to legally distribute packages along side the executables. Clause 5 of the LICENSE.txt is really prohibitive for distributing the game content in Ubuntu or Debian,...

[EDITED on March 7, 2010 for version 2.5+dfsg-3] Platinum Arts Sandbox is now easier than ever to install in Linux! It has been accepted into the contrib repository of Debian and will be included in version 10.10 of Ubuntu. It is available on nearly all platforms (amd64, i386 and many others . . . i...

Thanks - no problem, I understand it's a complicated issue with the number of platforms you support.
