Can I modify what I buy from the Asset Store?
I presume that answer is of course, but there is some confusing wording in the Legal Page. Specifically under 3.8 i) that "You agree that you will not, and will not allow any third party to: copy, sell, license, distribute, transfer, modify, adapt, translate, prepare derivative works from, decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise attempt to derive source code from the Unity Asset Store or the Assets, unless otherwise permitted".
I want to buy common household items from the Asset Store, and made destroyed versions of them for when the player destroys them. Under this wording is sounds like this is not legal? Again, I presume that's not the case and I can alter the 3D models as much as I see fit for my game?
It looks like it's in 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 where they clear this up:
2.2.1 Non-Restricted Assets. The following concerns only Assets that are not Restricted Assets:
Licensor grants to the END-USER a non-exclusive, worldwide, and perpetual license to the Asset to integrate Assets only as incorporated and embedded components of electronic games and interactive media and distribute such electronic game and interactive media. Except for game services software development kits (“Services SDKs”), END-USERS may modify Assets. END-USER may otherwise not reproduce, distribute, sublicense, rent, lease or lend the Assets. It is emphasized that the END-USERS shall not be entitled to distribute or transfer in any way (including, without, limitation by way of sublicense) the Assets in any other way than as integrated components of electronic games and interactive media. Without limitation of the foregoing it is emphasized that END-USER shall not be entitled to share the costs related to purchasing an Asset and then let any third party that has contributed to such purchase use such Asset (forum pooling).
2.2.2 Restricted Assets. The following concerns only Restricted Assets:
Licensor grants to the END-USER a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to the Asset for personal and non-commercial use; no other use is licensed or permitted. Except for Services SDKs, END-USERS may modify Assets. END-USER may otherwise not reproduce, distribute, sublicense, rent, lease or lend the Assets. Without limitation of the foregoing it is emphasized that END-USER shall not be entitled to share the costs related to purchasing an Asset and then let any third party that has contributed to such purchase use such Asset (forum pooling).
