If an artist creates a song, someone puts it into a game and sells it the artist's money got stolen. Because he deserve some of the money that the game's creator got from selling the game, since it contains the artist's song. But when someone uses it for a game that he does not sell , while crediting the artist, I do not see where the artist loses potential money.

Having some issues with making myself clear, sorry x)
Because you are distributing the product for free.

I sent a License request to the small indie band I was thinking about ^^. We'll see how it turns out, I already did it months ago and did not get an answer, but back then I did not have anything to show. Hopefully I'll get an answer this time : D.

I HAVE FAITH xD

Any work that is distrubuted over these forums that you do not have permission to distrubute from the creators themselves, will be taken down.

Are we allowed to use Penumbra models in Amnesia? Because my story uses quite a lot of them...

[I haven't seen Penumbra-related questions]

Just look at White Night, Mental Memorial, plus all those other modern day mods. I think you can answer your own question Smile

As far as FG models/assets are concerned, you can use them on custom stories etc which use the HPL engine and the final product if free (no monetization).
