License

OPAL license and terms of use.

OPAL is proprietary software, free to download and use, distributed by the O3DM team. OPAL is not open source.

What you can do

Download and use OPAL. Free of charge, for personal or commercial O3DE work.
Install, manage, and build O3DE engines, projects, and gems with it — that’s the whole point of the tool.
Run OPAL on as many machines as you own or control. No seat caps, no license keys, no activation servers.

What you can’t do

Redistribute the OPAL binaries or installers outside this site. Point people at opal.o3dm.net instead.
Modify, reverse-engineer, decompile, or repackage OPAL — in whole or in part.
Bundle OPAL inside another product without a written agreement from the O3DM team.
Remove or obscure branding, attribution, or in-app notices.

O3DE is separate

OPAL is a third-party launcher for O3DE. The O3DE engine itself is an independent, Apache 2.0-licensed project of the O3DE Foundation. Installing, building, and shipping engines or games made with O3DE is governed by O3DE’s own license — see o3de.org. Nothing here changes that.

Third-party components

OPAL bundles a number of third-party libraries. The full third-party license list ships with every release as THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.md inside the install directory.
