Hi, 

I don't know if this the appropriate section for this post, so pardon my ignorance,

Now I am an indie game developer with Unreal engine and I am running solo, so you can imagine how much of a challenge I am already taking
been working for 2 years now, I am halfway through my development process, and I am starting to need good looking 3d models for my game world,

I found some amazing Daz models here and with an affordable price for my limited resources and I was so happy
So I downloaded some of the freebies and added some others to my cart,

Now if I understand correctly, royalty-free means that I can use the assets in my game development as long as they are native engine format, packed, and encrypted, BUT in the freebies for example I found the readmes all very clear that:
these assets can be used in renders only, so that is a restricted use license, not a royalty-free one,

here on the site, it says royalty-free, but on the readme bundled with the asset it says it is not
so which one should I follow,  and is this will be the case with paid assets as well, where I buy something based on a certain license and receive it with a different one,

Please I need clarification about that matter and I hope I am not much of a bother,

thanks in advance.

Hey there,  

That's a good question. I have sent a message to the owner of RenderHub referencing this post. I'm sure he will get back to you very soon. 

Thank you for being a member of the RenderHub community.  smile

So, when artists offer their work here, they are supposed to adhere to the RenderHub licensing. If they include something different in the package they are breaching their agreement with us.

All items marked as royalty free here are as such.
