Buying more licences with one card only

by Giampaolo Mannucci · in Torque Game Engine · 09/04/2008 (6:53 pm) · 3 replies

Hello guys, my first post here

I simply have one question before I buy TGEA, me and my friend (he models and I code) want to buy TWO copies of TGEA to work on the same game, am I allowed to buy two licences with just one card?

We already know we should buy 2 Indie licences of TGEA.

Thank you in advance!

Hi Giampaolo,

Someone official from Garage Games will more than likely chime in here (David Montgomery-Blake or someone similar) to confirm this, but what I did with my son was each of us created accounts with Garage Games.

When we purchased each license we just made sure that we were logged into the respective accounts. I then used my card for the payment info. The license for each was tied specifically to the logged in accounts/individuals.

Edited because of akward sentence construction.

In the past it is whoever that will need access to the C/C++ source code of the game Torque engine will require a license while artists, scripters, and other non-engine programmers will not need a license. Doesn't that still hold true today?

@Nathan
Yes it does.

@Giampaolo
You will only need a license for your coder (you) since you will be the only one working with the C++ code. As an artist, he should be fine not having a license and working with the Artists documentation and not needing engine-coding level access.

@Alan
That's the way to do it if you have two people who have access to the engine source!
