IRE license
===========

The IT-HE Role-Playing-Game Engine (IRE) is issued under the terms of the
BSD license, described in the following section.

There are, unfortunately, one or two complications, mostly in regard
to the FMOD audio library that IRE uses.


* The BSD license applies only to the game runtime engine, the editors
  and accompanying utilities that form the IRE distribution.  It does not
  apply to any third-party components (such as libraries or toolkits)
  which are licensed separately and may have additional legal requirements.

* In particular, when distributing a game made with IRE, you will have to
  seek a separate license agreement to redistribute the proprietary FMOD
  sound library that the IRE runtime uses by default.  For non-commercial
  games this will be free.  For shareware and commercial games, you will
  have to purchase a license from Firelight Technologies.
  See http://www.fmod.org for details.

  (According to Firelight, the act of a commercial organisation
   distributing a free game at profit (e.g. on a magazine coverdisk) does
   not constitute a commercial work, i.e. this is allowed.)

* Alternatively, you can produce a fully Free version of the IRE runtime
  by disabling the game's use of FMOD, and using the less fully-featured
  Allegro sound driver instead.  Details for this are in 'readme.src'.

* Finally, datafiles which make up an IRE game do not necessarily fall
  under the BSD license.  The demo game that comes with the original IRE
  package (titled 'The Flat') is placed in the public domain and may be used
  as a base for further games.

* Any game data created for or using IRE may be licensed as the author of
  that work sees fit (FMOD licensing notwithstanding) although they are
  encouraged to make their work available in a liberal manner.
