License
This is the End User License Agreement for Reallusion Importer and Reallusion Rigger for Houdini. It covers whichever of the two you purchased. By downloading, installing, or using the asset, you agree to these terms.
Plain-language tl;dr
(The full terms below govern.) You get a single-user license to use the asset on machines you control, for your own personal and commercial projects. Renders and output you create are yours, royalty-free. Your purchase includes all future updates to the product you bought, and a purchase of one product does not include the other. You may open and modify the unlocked Reallusion Rigger APEX Rig node in your own scenes, but you may not redistribute, resell, share, or reverse-engineer the asset. It's provided as-is with no warranty, and you're responsible for your own SideFX license compliance and for the rights to any character content you process.
Reallusion Importer and Reallusion Rigger for Houdini — End User License Agreement
Last updated: 11/10/2026
This License Agreement ("Agreement") is a legal agreement between you (the "User") and tonehammer ("Author") for the Houdini Digital Assets known as "Reallusion Importer for Houdini" and "Reallusion Rigger for Houdini", including the "Reallusion Rigger APEX Rig" node that ships with the Reallusion Rigger, and any accompanying files, documentation, and resources (collectively, the "Asset"). This Agreement covers whichever of the two products you purchased; a purchase of one does not grant a license to the other.
By downloading, installing, or using the Asset, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not download, install, or use the Asset.
1. License Grant
The Author grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Asset on machines under your control, for your own commercial or personal projects, subject to the terms below. One purchase covers a single individual user.
2. Permitted Use
You may:
- Use the Asset to import, shade, rig, animate, and render characters in your own personal or commercial projects.
- Use renders, images, animations, caches, and other final output created with the Asset freely, including commercially, with no royalty owed to the Author.
- Install the Asset on multiple machines that you personally own or control.
- Open, inspect, and modify the Reallusion Rigger APEX Rig node and the rigs it builds in your own scenes. That node is deliberately shipped unlocked so the rig can be adapted to your work.
3. Restrictions
You may not:
- Redistribute, resell, sublicense, rent, lease, lend, or share the Asset itself, in whole or in part, whether modified or unmodified.
- Decompile, reverse-engineer, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to extract, recreate, or derive the source code or internal logic of the black-boxed parts of the Asset (the Reallusion Importer node and the Reallusion Rigger node). Attempting to defeat that protection is a breach of this Agreement.
- Make the Asset, or any part of it, available on any public or private repository, marketplace, file-sharing service, or other distribution channel.
- Present the Asset, or a modified version of it, as your own work or as part of a product you distribute.
- Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, attribution, or proprietary notices contained in or accompanying the Asset.
Inspecting and modifying the unlocked APEX Rig node for your own use is expressly permitted by Section 2; it is the DISTRIBUTION of the Asset or anything derived from it that is not.
4. Houdini License Compliance
The Asset is built with and distributed as a Houdini Indie ("limited commercial") Digital Asset (.hdalc). You are solely responsible for ensuring your own use of Houdini and of this Asset complies with SideFX's licensing terms. Loading a limited-commercial Asset into a commercial Houdini session may affect that session under SideFX's rules; the Author is not responsible for your compliance with SideFX licensing.
5. Third-Party Content
The Asset processes characters, textures, and motions exported from Character Creator, iClone, and related Reallusion products. You are responsible for holding the appropriate rights and licenses to any character, texture, motion, or other content you process with the Asset. The Author claims no ownership of, and accepts no responsibility for, the content you import. "Character Creator," "iClone," and "Reallusion" are trademarks of their respective owners; this Asset is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Reallusion or SideFX.
6. No Warranty
THE ASSET IS PROVIDED "AS IS," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NONINFRINGEMENT. THE AUTHOR DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE ASSET WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION, OR BE FREE OF ERRORS.
7. Limitation of Liability
IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR PRODUCTION DELAYS) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE ASSET, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. YOUR SOLE REMEDY IS TO STOP USING THE ASSET.
8. Support and Updates
Your purchase includes all future updates to the product you purchased at no additional cost - when a new version of it is released, you are entitled to download and use it under this same Agreement. The timing, scope, and content of any update remain at the Author's sole discretion; this Agreement does not promise any particular feature, fix, upgrade schedule, or support response. Support beyond updates is provided as a courtesy at the Author's discretion.
9. Termination
This Agreement is effective until terminated. It terminates automatically if you breach any of its terms. On termination, you must stop using the Asset and delete all copies in your possession.
10. Entire Agreement
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Author regarding the Asset and supersedes any prior agreements or understandings.
