You may (i) access, use, copy and modify the 3-D Models stored on such computers at such single location in the creation and presentation of animations and renderings which may require runtime access to the 3-D Model(s), and (ii) incorporate two dimensional images (including two dimensional images that simulate motion of three dimensional objects) derived from the 3-D Model(s) in other works and publish, market, distribute, transfer , sell or sublicense such combined works; provided that you may not in any case: (a) separately publish, market, distribute, transfer , sell or sublicense any 3-D Model(s) or any part thereof; or (b) publish, market, distribute, transfer , sell or sublicense renderings, animations, software applications, data or any other product from which any original 3-D Model(s), or any part thereof, or any substantially similar version of the original 3-D Model(s) can be separately exported, extracted, or de-compiled into any re-distributable form or format.

All other rights with respect to the 3-D Model(s) and their use are reserved to DAZ3D (and its licensors).


I read that to mean you can make all the 2D images of the models you want, but the actual models themselves, even if modified or converted to a different format, cannot be distributed.

ie. no using them in games.
