OK so while installing I like to read every EULA (most people should). I got the Game studio pack and everything and i got to the DP EULA and was a bit confused by some of the "law speak"
Quote: "

Is this essentially saying "You can make any program you want using Dark Physics, but if you want to sell it you must pay [insert large sum here] to ageia"???
