- THIS LICENSE
-
- ======================= LICENSE ============================
-
- [1] DEFINITIONS: The "Trademarks" consist of the "3D Realms" words and logo,
- "Apogee" words and logo, the name of the Game, game characters, and all
- other marks used by Apogee in connection with the Game. Other trademarks

- respective owners.

- the property of Apogee to the extent permitted by law.
-
- [3] GRANT: Apogee grants a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free
- license to distribute the Game only as follows:
-
- [A] INDIVIDUALS are encouraged to share and give copies of the Game to
- friends, family, coworkers, and members of any not-for-profit
- organization, but only without charge.
-

- [4] NEW LEVELS.
-
- "New Levels" are data that modify or substitute for Game data, thus
- modifying or replacing one or more Game levels. Creating or distributing
- a New Level or a software tool that has no substantial purpose other than
- to contribute to the creation of a New Level infringes rights of Apogee
- and is prohibited by law except as permitted by Apogee. APOGEE PERMITS
- NEW LEVELS ONLY THAT MEET ALL OF THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
-
- [A] The Level must only work with a RETAIL episode of the Game. It must NOT
- work with this Episode One.
-
- [B] The level must not contain modifications to any COM, EXE, or DLL, or to
- other executable file.
-
- [C] The level must not contain any illegal or indecent material, or (without
- appropriate irrevocable licenses) any trademarks, copyright protected
- work, or other property of third parties.
-
- [D] The level must prominently identify at least in every online description
- and with reasonable duration on an opening screen
- (1) the name and email address of the level's creators, and
- (2) the words "THIS LEVEL IS NOT MADE BY OR SUPPORTED BY APOGEE".
-
- [E] The level and any use of it must be offered solely for free (other than
- any incidental online charges).
-
- [F] By distributing or permitting the distribution of any New Level, all
- owners of any trademark, copyright or other right, title or interest
- therein (to the extent different from the Game as originally distributed
- by Apogee) grant back to Apogee an irrevocable royalty free right
- to distribute the level.
-
- [G] The distributor of any New Level or Level Editor must be authorized to
- distribute the Game itself (either in writing, or by being within a
- category where no writing is needed under this LICENSE.DOC).
-
- [5] TERM: Unless terminated for cause, grants by Apogee under this
- LICENSE.DOC terminate 30 days after receipt of written notice, or such
- longer period as the notice may provide. Sections [2], [6], and [7]
- survive termination.
-
- [6] LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF REMEDIES: If Apogee provides a
- physically defective copy of the Game, Apogee will replace it upon
- prompt submission of the defective one. THE GAME IS OTHERWISE PROVIDED
- "AS-IS", AND NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
- MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE), EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
- ARE MADE AS TO IT OR ANY MEDIUM IT MAY BE ON. OUR ENTIRE LIABILITY AND
- YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS SUCH REPLACEMENT, AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
- WILL WE PROVIDE ANY OTHER REMEDY FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
- CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING FROM IT,
- INCLUDING SUCH FROM NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR BREACH OF WARRANTY
- OR CONTRACT, EVEN AFTER NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
-
- [7] MISCELLANY
-
- [A] Since we (Apogee) would be irreparably damaged if Sections [2], [3],
- [4], or [7][D] were not specifically enforced, we will be entitled without
- bond, other security or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable
- remedies with respect to breaches of such sections, in addition to such
- other remedies as we may have.
-
- [B] You will indemnify and hold us, our partners, affiliates, contractors,
- employees and agents harmless from damage, loss and expense arising
- directly or indirectly from your acts and omissions in copying,
- distributing or modifying the Game or any New Level.
-
- [C] With respect to every matter arising under this, you consent to the
- exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts sitting
- in Dallas, Texas, and to service by certified mail, return receipt
- requested, or as otherwise permitted by law.
-
- [D] Except as explicitly permitted herein, you will not modify the Game.
- Except to the extent, if any, applicable law may require otherwise, you
- will not decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer the Game, or use or
- disclose any confidential information that it contains.
