WadeTripp: Yes, it can be legal. Frankensteining objects for personal use should be viewed as "fair use." Say, person A frankensteins objects X and Y to make object Z. Person B has a license to use X and Y. Person A gives a copy of object Z to person B. Can ANYONE prove that Person B did not do the frankensteining himself, for personal use? I don't think so. The trick is making sure Person B has the base objects. And that is what RTEncoder and Objaction Mover are for - making object Z unusable unless you already have objects X and Y. Encoding with base objects also implies the maker used portions of those base objects to create his new object. Which seems fair to me. Most 3D content producers allow the use of RTEncoder or Objaction Mover for encrypting the derivative works with the original. DAZ is more strict (exceedingly so, see the thread Acadia posted). Whatever the situation, it is always advisable to contact the creator of the original mesh if the creation of derivative works is not clearly covered in their EULA.

The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
