Terms of Use

All my scripts are bound under my terms of use. If any terms on RMRK does not contradict my terms, please add those.

That's a neat idea SoulPour. I hadn't really thought about it, but it is true that a  lot of games do this for cutscenes, and it's a nice idea to allow it in Ace too. Thanks for sharing!
