    I think if you make everything yourself, it is yours. DAZ cannot ask some percentage just because you did it with their software. You cannot use models bought at DAZ in games without a game license, but if you create the models yourself, that´s another matter.

    It's the same as any 3D program. Anything you personally create within the software is yours, you alone own the intellectual rights to something created solely by you.

    It's only if you modify someone else's work, then copywrite's need to be considered.

    It's why you own the final render from Daz Studio, but not the models you've purchased to create the scene.

    Yes, but...

    There are two different things here, "models sold from the company DAZ3d" and "models created by you in a format DAZ|Studio the program can read" — both can be called "DAZ models". The difference is important, and mixing them up will be confusing. The first are covered by the licence agreement, and the second are completely yours and you can do what you want with them.
