(a) The Software includes a Beta version of the upcoming Unreal Level Editor. An "Editor" is a feature which allows you to modify the Software or to construct new variations for use with it.

You may not freely distribute it to any BBS, CD, floppy or any other media. You may not sell it or repackage it for sale. The final version of the Editor will be released as a separate product along with its own manual and additional features. Because the enclosed beta version is not the final version of the Editor, it may contain bugs or glitches which may affect the successful creation and operation of levels and other functions. This beta version of the Editor has been included to show the potential of the final version of the Editor. Technical support is not available from GT or Epic for the beta version of the Editor.

i. Your Variations must only work with the full, registered copy of the Software, not independently or with any other software.
ii. Your Variations must not contain modifications to any executable file.
iii. Your Variations must not contain any libelous, defamatory, or other illegal material, material that is scandalous or invades the rights of privacy or publicity of any third party, or contains any trademarks, copyright-protected work, or other recognizable property of third parties.
iv. Your variations shall not be supported by Epic, or GT Interactive Software Corp., or any of such parties affiliates and subsidiaries.
v. Your Variations must be distributed solely for free. Neither you nor any other person or party may sell them to anyone, commercially exploit them in any way, or charge anyone for using them without a license from Epic. You may, however, exchange them at no charge among other end-users and distribute them to others over the Internet for free.
