License Question

If I buy a 3D model with an extended license that is not made for Daz, am I allowed to include it in a product for Daz? Essentially, I want to buy a prop and make a product consisting of poses for the prop but also include the prop in the package.

redistribution is practically always a no-no unless explicitly permitted.

Mon, May 05That's my guess but I thought I'd ask just to get a solid answer.
To really clarify the question and help you get a precise answer, let's take a file in obj format as an example:
Case 1
The obj file is included as is in the package.
Case 2
The obj file is transformed into a duf file (Daz Studio format), and this duf file is included in the package.

Tue, May 06These situations are not meaningfully different from each other, taking someone else's work, altering it into a different format and redistributing it is still practically always wrong without explicit permission to do that. Hard to enforce but especially if you're selling someone else's work in this fashion, yeah don't do that.
As Excessive already sayd: resale is a no-go!
However, one option would be to contact the seller here, using the Renderhub system. If he agrees (and changes his mind later) you would have it in writing.
If he refuses, so be it
Perhaps you could also suggest to the CC that you work together and share the profits?
Good luck

Legal questions like this are best answered by a qualified attorney. While community members may share their opinions, it's important to read the license in full and make your own determination or consult with a legal professional for advice.

With that said, here are some snippets from the license that can help you make that determination:
-----
"...Except as otherwise authorized in this Agreement, you may not redistribute, publish or make a Digital Asset available to any third party unless the Digital Asset becomes part of a larger Creation..."
"...You may not use or distribute the Digital Asset, or any modified version of the Digital Asset, in any way that is competitive with the original Digital Asset or the Site..."
"...You may not use an "Editorial Use Only" Digital Asset in a commercial manner..."
"...Exception. Editorial Use Only Restrictions do not apply if you have the needed authorization..."
"...The Personal Use Only license permits only non-commercial use of the Digital Asset..."
