Newb question about licenses

Sometimes I see something in the store, and it doesn't show any license. Here's an example: https://www.daz3d.com/facegen-artist-pro

Can something like this be used in a game? If not, what good is it?

Thanks!

    That is not something that would require the license. What requires the license would be the figure being used: i.e., Genesis 8 Male, Genesis 3 Female, Genesis 3 Male, Genesis 2 Female, Genesis 2 Male, Genesis, and/or Genesis 8 Female.

    Other matters which would factor in would be the morph being made - is that safe for to use in a game or does it belong to a copyrighted/trademarked character?

    When a product like clothes, characters, hair... doesn't have an interactive licence you can't use it in a game.

    In that case you can contact Daz Support to ask if the vendor would consider adding that option, though.

    That makes sense for the figures. Your last sentence confuses me, though. The whole reason I was wondering, was because I've seen people on YouTube talk about using morphs they bought, importing them from Daz into Unreal Engine 4, and then letting the player use them when they customize their character.

    The majority here don't use the assets in the DAZ store for game use and some vendors might not want their work used in a game setting. Also keep in mind that the interactive licenses are for use in an original game, not for mods.

    Also keep in mind that just because something is posted on YT doesn't mean it's factual or even legal. When it comes to game use, it's best to just contact DAZ with the questions
