Questions about Textures and Models
 
Hey,
I wana know if we can use royality free textures or models in our animations, we are not planning so much on using models but its always good to use royality free textures instead of making from scratch. So plaease tell me if tis allowed

Making your own textures is fine and using/editing the ones given to you with max is as well.

Where does it say this in the rules? I found one thread that had one person who said that, but that was just a statement, not an official answer or link to rules.

I quoted the rules in another thread, read your consent form that you should have, or are going to send in.

Under section 8.7 of the awards documentation, paragraph three (If you exclude bullets), it says:

"The entrant represents and warrants that the material is by the entrant free of any liens or claims of any third party."

Isn't that what a royalty free texture is?

That's still someone elses thing, they can claim that it wasn't free, they have rights to it, even if they say it's free. Besides, why would you want someone elses things in your animation? It doesn't make it worth it, you learn a lot more if you do everything by yourself (With some professional help if you need it, that's not bad or anything.) I fail to see why anyone would want to put someone elses stuff in their animation.

does that apply to sound effects too?

If it's third party, than yes.

THe understaning i have of Royaliuty Free, is tht everyone has permissions to use it, some stuff is even credit-ware, where u have to put credits in your movie to useit, but i want to get this all figured out, at least we can make our own textures :)

Re: Questions about Textures and Models
 
hmmm what if the stuff is donated? like if a radio station gives u sound effect tapes or soemthing like that? i would think this is just to avoid copyright isssues or people dowloading major chunks of the animations, but it is a gray area.

Use common sense... that's all I have to say.

Especially on the music thing, that's where you'll be caught if you've done something wrong.
