Darkplaces on Android

If that was the case, Dungeon Defenders would not be ported to Android. Yet, there they are. While it's true that Android users buy less than iOS users, they do throw money on stuff that they feel worth spending money on. Not to mention userbase is huge.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... k.DoomGLES strongly disagrees
https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... quaketouch too (uses FTEQW)

Though of course I do not know their pricing history.

I guess they do the same as other tools did. Not bundling the shareware but downloading it later on.

Hi all, I'm the author of this port and I'll answer some questions (even if they haven't been asked =)
First of all, I've never sold my ports of GPL software because, as all we know, selling GPL software is not only amoral, but it is obviously senseless also (although, tech support for GPL software can be sold).
Some people have tried to sell my ports without any modifications and finally that content was removed: I know how to defend my apps even it the case of GPL, I've simply packaged my own MSPaint-drawn pictures in APK and any usage of them IS violation because these pictures are not GPL (because APK package is NOT a derivative work, it is just a ZIP archive, only classes.dex and native libraries are).
BUT I don't like GPL and I will not follow it before publishing app on Google Play. Well, you can try to sue me but these ports are initially published on the websites where you can find a lot of real pirated apps, so nobody cares.
The reason why I don't like GPL is that anyone can just sell my work as his own what is probably amoral. You can find a "Quake Touch" port in Google Play, he have banned the whole Russia to block my source code requests (but he doesn't seem to use any code from QI4A, if he will, I'll just republish his app for free). This "Quake Touch" port is in a trademark violation also, "All trademarks are used under the terms of Fair Use" is a lie, because the only Fair Use of trademarks in commercial products is a nominative usage (to REFER original product).
And I don't use shareware datas, because I've read a license agreement.

Are you talking about https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... quaketouch ?!

That port is using FTEQW so I highly doubt it is violating your works.

I also got the source from him by simply asking nicely.

gpl can not be changed, if you do not like so gpl doesn´t code taking gpl code from base

I did not buy the app, I just asked nicely. Maybe you should try that too.

And please do not get it, compile and publish for free. There is nothing wrong with selling GPL software. The license explicitly allows it, it is even encouraged.

Others' work? You used DP engine, which already had GLES2 rendering path and other implementations for mobile platforms. All you did was fixing it. That's all your work in it - fixes. So claiming porting DP to Android was your work is wrong.

If you don't want people using DP Android, which includes your fixes, for commercial purposes, you should have never ever touched DP in the first place. And if people do, all you can legally do is obtain their source code, repackage DP app, and release it for free. If someone used DP Android with your fixes for commercial app, you can not threaten them to release their entire app for free, nor you can release it for free. Only the engine is GPL, not the data they supply with it.

Не тупи, учи язык и внимательно читай GPL лицензию, по ходу спрашивая у знающих людей что и как.
