Afraid not.

Ccoa sells a commercial usage license for the UMS (XP and VX versions). She cannot accept outside help on this work without endangiering her ability to sell it outright. She won't even look at the code you offer. But this is so no other individual's piece of code can be used to lay claim on her script. Legalize and stuff, ya know?

Yeah, I talked to her about this a while ago.

she's why i left rmxp.net, i can't stand her. what kind of petty person would try and make money off their scripts?

[yamina-chan]

Those who want to go professional about it? Or those who want to earn a bit extra money?
By the same logic you could argue "why would someone take money for their music or their artwork?" I don't know Ccoa personally but i respect her abilitys.

Ok, stop this debate right now. This is not the place where to discuss such theme. And don't personally attack a member of the site, KasperKalamity. Thanks.

objections noted.

what i should have said was "who would make something available for free, and then try to charge for its use?" especially when garage games are almost never finished, and the .01% that are, rarely see an audience of more than a dozen. sure it's a nice script and all, but it's ridiculous to go through all the legal nonsense to make a vain effort at protecting something that someone can share so easily. if you're doing something JUST to make a profit, then you lose sight of why you started doing it in the first place. feel free to disagree.

She gives free right to use in free games, but if one wishes to use it for commercial gain, she understandably has the right to request some form of compensation for the work she put into this script. Other scripters also have such clauses or limitations on their work. KGC scripts cannot be posted in forums other than their own and KGC and Claihm scripts cannot be used for commercial gain. Sandgolem scripts are only able to be posted by Sandgolem's permission.
