Consulta sobre la licencia de Unreal. y temas legales

Hola gente, pregunto esto acá porque no soy muy bueno leyendo ingles.
Estoy planeando usar UE4 engine para algunos desarrollos. pero quiero cerciorarme de la licencia.

He visto que dice algo que las licencias “libres” (copyleft) como GPL o CC no están permitidas a excepción de “enlazar” librerías.

Non-Compatible Licenses:
You may not combine, Distribute, or otherwise use the Licensed Technology with any code or
other content which is covered by a license that would directly or indirectly require that all or
part of the Licensed Technology be governed under any terms other than those of this Agreement
(“Non-Compatible License”). Code or content under the following licenses, for example, are
prohibited: GNU General Public License (GPL), Lesser GPL (LGPL) (unless you are merely
dynamically linking a shared library), or Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike
License. Code or content under the following licenses, for example, are allowed: BSD License,
MIT License, Microsoft Public License, or Apache License. You may not sublicense the
Licensed Technology under a Non-Compatible License.

Epic grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license, during the Unreal
Tournament Project, for a single User to use, reproduce, and modify the Unreal Tournament
Content for the sole purposes of creating Unreal Tournament Contributions for the Unreal
Tournament Project and creating Unreal Tournament UGC (the “Unreal Tournament
License”). You may not Distribute or sublicense to any person other than Epic, or include in any
product, any Unreal Tournament Content. The Unreal Tournament License does not grant you
any title, ownership rights, or other intellectual property rights in any Unreal Tournament
Content. You agree to retain and reproduce in all copies of the Unreal Tournament Content the
copyright, trademark, and other proprietary notices and disclaimers of Epic as they appear in the
Unreal Tournament Content. Upon the completion of the Unreal Tournament Project or
termination of the Epic Licenses under Section 16, or upon earlier written notice from Epic if
3you materially breach the terms of the Unreal Tournament License, you must destroy all copies
of the Unreal Tournament Content. All references in this paragraph to the Unreal Tournament
Content include modified versions thereof made by you under the Unreal Tournament License.
Any Distribution of Unreal Tournament UGC must take place through the Marketplace, Epic’s
GitHub UnrealEngine Network, or other Epic services, unless such Distribution is solely for the
purpose of legitimate development of such Unreal Tournament UGC, and then only to Engine
Licensees, or legitimate testing of such Unreal Tournament UGC, and then only to Engine
Licensees or individuals who have accepted the latest Unreal Tournament EULA.

¿Estas clausulas son exclusivas para modificaciones en el código fuente del programa Unreal Engine 4 o también para mis “trabajos” realizados con dicho motor?
Preguntado de otra forma: ¿puedo realizar un Juego bajo GPL y distribuir el “codigo fuente” (generado por el motor) o queda estrictamente “incompatible” dicha licencia?
Por ultimo: ¿Si decido generar modelos 3D o texturas bajo CC o GPL puedo de toda formas utilizarlas dentro del motor?

Por otra parte, esta más que claro que el Engine es “código abierto” y gratuito, pero leí por otras partes de la web de epic en FAQ

Esto quiere decir si “pido donaciones” por un código abierto o libre (lo cual a mi entender es No Comercial, dado que es opcional), y recaudo más de $3000 debo aportar igual este %5?.
No me mal interpreten, me parece justo; no pretendo utilizar tremendo motor sin pagar o aportar nada a cambio. solo quiero cerciorarme un poco más sobre estas dos informaciones…

Bueno gracias por sus tiempo espero obtener alguna respuesta…
