[Meta-Question] What Licence Ren'Py Cookbook Under?

#1 Post by verysunshine »

I've tried to figure out what kind of licence the code in the Ren'Py Cookbook is under. None of the code creators mention it.

Are there blanket permissions, or does it change with each project?

Specifically, can users alter cookbook code or make money with code from the cookbook?

Build the basics first, then add all the fun bits.

Please check out my games on my itch.io page!

they have pretty much the same license as renpy itself: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/license.html
Unless stated otherwise

As Kia said, most of the code is free to use. But watch out especially for the battle systems...I notice a lot of those don’t allow use without permission. Basically, if there are further restrictions, the cookbook posts will generally say so.
A Close Shave:
*Last Thing Done (Aug 17): Finished coding emotions and camera for 4/10 main labels.
*Currently Doing: Coding of emotions and camera for the labels--On 5/10
*First Next thing to do: Code in all CG and special animation stuff
*Next Next thing to do: Set up film animation
*Other Thing to Do: Do SFX and Score (maybe think about eye blinks?)
