[4E5]Commercial engine
July 19, 2006 01:35 PM
Hi guys, I'm considering to use my torque shader engine for the project. I do have an indie license, but do I need to present it to you guys. Do we have to do it for other commercial engines too?

AFAIK you can use whatever you like, so long as it can be distributed.

You cant use the source SDK commercialy, unless you purchase rights to the source.

Does the source sdk count?
The SDK itself is fine, however, in order to run your game you'd need the target system to have a Source game installed (such as HL2), which it won't have. The alternative is buying a license from Valve, if you've got a few million dollars spare.
