heyas;

   okay, i've been thinking of licensing the Tiny Rider Ranch animations and some scripts to others who want to make rideable critters for tinies.  to do so, i'll have to rearrange (or perhas re-do) the scripts, figure out pricing and well, how to keep myself in business with all the competition ;)   not to stifle the market, because i am all for free enterprise.  but some checks and balances and such.

   now the question here is...  would it be worthwhile to put my brain to work on this, and set time aside to noodle with scripts for this, and set up a licensing system that is fair and balanced et al.  which MEANS....  how many folks would be A) interested in acquiring such content and B) who's willing to pay how much for it?

   i'm thinking of two pricing schemes.  one an outright license buy (but hella expensive).  the other a commission on a per sales basis.  uhm, maybe also with an initial fee, so people dont grab it and then never do anything with it.  lol!

  the package won't include ALL the tiny rider scripts like the pigs et al have.  those are my special stuff.
so...
 the animations (poses) and the animation controller script.
 the base engine that handles the standing/walking/running/flying detection.
 blink animation scripts and instructions how to set up the legs and all for standing, walking, running, and flying/jumping.

  dust, speed boost, sounds... that'll all be up to other folks.


 so....  discuss.

I think it would be a great idea. More scripts available for builders is always good, and I do know a few tinies right now that already use licensed scripts. It's always annoying to spend a lot of time scripting for someone elses product, to later find out that an almost identical script is already out there. Maybe if more tinies started doing that, a forum post with the available scripts would be good so people can see whats out there?

its a hellpuppy.

  and quit going off topic!


  okay, so catten thinks its a good idea in general terms.  but nobody (who reads the forums anyway) is actually interested in doing any WORK involved in utilizing said scripts and such.  which is okay.  less work for me!
