Piracy isn't a libre licence.

Libre licence means sharing the source code and the game assets.

Here piracy means free to play.

And you're right free software doesn't mean the author doesn't get paid. But that's not the point here.

Lastly, in some legislations (author's right), a statement like this one don't work because the author himself cannot violate his own rights. Which mean that people can be sue for pirating a work even if the author stated that people can pirate it. To me, it's endangering the audience.

On the bright side, it's still nice to have an author acknowledging piracy doesn't steal sells and that culture is meant to be shared.

Well he is free to put it under a libre licence anytime.

Libre office draw or Scribus.

Puppy linux (debian version), small, light, 32b.

In that case you should find midi arpeggiators plugins. There are many in lv2 format that are easy to find and to use (like euclidean rhythm and such).

What do you mean by 'sequencing features' ?

Try LMMS, it's close to the old flstudio and there will be no need for piracy. There are also some free daws that might interest you as such as Ardour or Zrythm.

Son you didn't have class manuals?

Ok, regarding to the assets you can release them under their initial licence with the code on another one. It's not a problem.

You can even publish things under multiple licences if they aren't exclusive (I've done this on my game).

Well, I'd say libre software comes with an activist approach on this kind of non-sense. It would be appropriate to make some kind of statement regarding this issue.

You can have a closed source version on console and a libre or open version for PC.

So yeah but errrr no...

Why not releasing assets? Or looking for free/open assets in the first place?

Why the code would be 'just for reference', if the game needs to be ported or if you lose the source code, releasing it under a libre licence will be pretty useful.

It can but looping the audio file will make a 'click' noise. And there is no audio region handling so it's hard to know where the audio file ends visually on the main timeline.

You should use Ardour, it's a DAW with native linux version. It's free for Linux users and it's a free software.

LMMS isn't really a DAW, as it can't really manipulate audio easily, only midi. Reaper and Bitweeg have native Linux version but aren't free softwares.

Windows Vst are running fine on linux these days, but on Linux there are a lot of audio plugins on Lv2 format you should try as well... Lastly, native vst for Linux do exist and work flawlessly.

Edit: as a general rule, audio in Linux is fairly different than on windows/macos, because it allows more flexible workflows, with the use of multiple softwares in sync to get the best of their abilities. For instance I make professional audio mainly with Ardour but I also use rosegarden, guitarix, luppp, non-daw, open stage control or pure data for some specific functions.

Why did you dont l'île Dota 2?

It's not the point.

People see an app marked as Microsoft, they are using Windows by Microsoft so they assume the app is part of the system. Therefore they won't even guess they can uninstall the app to begin with.

Do you think regular people uninstall apps they do not need?

Specially Microsoft apps, you know you can uninstall them, most people won't remove them by fear of breaking Windows, thinking theses apps are here for a good reason...

You are a power user yourself, of course you dont see ads. But most of the people will see ones because they aren't power users.

You're welcome. You could also try Systemshock 1&2 it's the same era as Deus Ex.

Hum it isn't I'll check it out thx.

Edit : fixed, thank you didn't pay attention and tick the box by mistake.

It is and I never have stability issues on PC. Bugs yes and the 3 years update have getting rid of the most annoying ones.
