oki... i for one and sick and tired of hearing everyone noting about what is legal to do and not legal.
quite frankly ANYONE with these questions without any actual demonstration version of thier game online, should ask themselves one question.
Did i get into DarkBasic Programming for making games or for making money?
at the end of the day almost everyone here is either LEARNING to program or here to help those TO LEARN howto program...
if you come into this language thinking that its a quick way to make a buck, then there is a
Sign Out button below - might i suggest you use it until you wish to be realistic about games development.
The first questions that go through a programmers mind SHOULD NEVER be, will i be sued for using this or am i eligable to pay money IF this game sells Nth amount of copies?
no the first question should always be... "what do i want this game to be about?"
if your preoccupied by financial based questions then you're not a games developer, your a development/production manager and this is NOT the place for training on this front ... i'd suggest GNVQ in Business Studies at your local College or a Bacholars Degree in Business Practises.
YOUR FIRST AND FOREMOST duty is to your game/product, never to what the costs and revenue will be for utilising things.
perhaps once everyone starts to learn again and forgets about the legalities of format use then maybe they can start getting on with ACTUALLY MAKING SOME DAMND SOFTWARE!!
... just my two cents on the matters

One block follows the suit ... the whole suit of blocks is the path ... what have you found?
