Terms of Use
Last updated: October 10, 2026
Welcome to Free Game Assets. These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of 1fbx.com, its pages, download servers and related services (together, the “Site”), and the game assets made available through it. In these Terms, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the operator of Free Game Assets, and “you” refers to any person who visits the Site or downloads an asset. Please read these Terms carefully. If you have any questions, contact us at [email protected].
1. Acceptance of these Terms
By accessing the Site, browsing its pages or downloading any asset, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle information collected through the Site. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Site or download any assets.
If you use the Site on behalf of a company, studio or other organisation, you confirm that you have authority to accept these Terms on its behalf, and “you” includes that organisation.
2. Eligibility
The Site is intended for game developers, artists, students, hobbyists and other creators. You must be at least 13 years old to use the Site. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Site only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to these Terms on your behalf. You may not use the Site if you are prohibited from doing so under the laws that apply to you.
3. The service
Free Game Assets provides a free library of game assets, including 3D models, FBX files, textures and ZIP packs. Browsing and downloading are free of charge, and you do not need to register or create an account. Downloads are delivered from separate file-hosting servers operated by us.
Accounts exist only for our staff, meaning administrators and invited contributors who upload and manage assets. Staff accounts are personal and must not be shared. Staff members are responsible for keeping their login details confidential and for all activity carried out through their accounts, and must notify us immediately at [email protected] if they suspect unauthorised use.
The Site is supported by advertising. We may add, change or remove assets, features and download locations at any time, and we do not guarantee that any particular asset will remain available.
4. Asset licence
Unless the page for a particular asset states different licence terms, each asset you download from the Site is licensed to you under the following terms (the “Asset Licence”):
- We grant you a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free and perpetual licence to use, copy, modify, adapt and combine the asset in your own projects.
- You may use the asset in both personal and commercial projects, including video games, mobile and desktop apps, web games, virtual and augmented reality experiences, prototypes, renders, illustrations, animations, films, videos, streams and marketing material for your projects.
- You may distribute the asset as an integrated part of your finished project, for example compiled or packaged inside a game build, provided that the asset is not offered in a way that allows end users to extract it and use it separately as a standalone asset.
- You may modify the asset in any way, and you own the copyright in any original changes you make, subject to the underlying rights in the asset.
- Attribution is appreciated but not required. If you would like to credit us, a mention such as “Assets from Free Game Assets (1fbx.com)” in your credits or description is welcome.
Where an asset page specifies a different licence, such as a Creative Commons licence or particular terms set by the original creator, those terms apply to that asset instead of, or in addition to, the Asset Licence. If there is a conflict, the terms stated on the asset page take priority for that asset.
The Asset Licence does not transfer ownership of any asset to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by us or by the relevant contributor.
5. Licence restrictions
Unless the asset page expressly allows it, you must not:
- sell, resell, sublicense, share or redistribute any asset on its own, in its original form or in a lightly modified form, whether for payment or free of charge;
- include any asset in an asset pack, template, kit, bundle, stock library, model collection or any similar product whose main purpose is to provide assets to other people;
- upload or offer any asset on an asset store, marketplace, file-sharing service or other website where it can be downloaded or purchased as an asset, including marketplaces for 3D models, game engines, printable models or digital goods;
- claim that you are the original author or creator of an asset, or register any asset, or a work in which an asset is the dominant element, as your own trade mark, design or copyright;
- mint or sell any asset as a non-fungible token (NFT) or similar digital collectible on its own;
- compile assets into a dataset that is published, sold or distributed to others, including datasets intended for training machine learning or artificial intelligence models;
- use any asset in content that is unlawful, defamatory, fraudulent, hateful or harassing, that infringes the rights of others, or that depicts or promotes the sexual exploitation of minors;
- use any asset in a way that suggests that we or any contributor endorse you, your project or your views.
These restrictions continue to apply after you have modified an asset if the result can still be extracted and used as a substantially similar standalone asset. If you are unsure whether a proposed use is permitted, please contact us before proceeding.
6. Third-party content and contributor warranties
Assets on the Site are created or supplied by our staff and by invited contributors. Some assets may be based on, or include, materials licensed from third parties, in which case the asset page will describe any additional conditions.
Every contributor who uploads an asset to the Site represents and warrants that:
- they created the asset themselves, or they own or control all rights in it necessary to make it available under the Asset Licence or the licence shown on the asset page;
- the asset does not infringe any copyright, trade mark, design right, patent, privacy right, publicity right or other right of any person;
- the asset does not contain malicious code, hidden scripts or any material that is unlawful;
- any third-party material included in the asset is used in accordance with its licence, and any required notices are included.
By uploading an asset, a contributor grants us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, display, promote and distribute the asset through the Site, and to license it to visitors under the Asset Licence or the licence shown on the asset page. Contributors agree to indemnify us against claims arising from a breach of these warranties.
Although we review uploads and take care to publish only assets we believe may lawfully be shared, we cannot guarantee that every asset is free from third-party claims. If you have concerns about any asset, please report it as described in section 7.
7. Copyright and DMCA policy
We respect the intellectual property rights of others and expect our contributors and users to do the same. We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement in accordance with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and other applicable laws, and we will remove or disable access to material that we determine, or reasonably believe, infringes the rights of others.
7.1 Reporting infringement
The quickest way to alert us to a possible copyright issue is to use the “Report” button on the relevant asset page and select the copyright option. For a formal notice of infringement, please send a written notice by email to [email protected] with the subject line “Copyright Notice”, including the following information:
- your physical or electronic signature, as the copyright owner or a person authorised to act on the owner’s behalf;
- identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed;
- identification of the material on the Site that you claim is infringing, including the web address of each asset page concerned, with enough detail for us to locate it;
- your name, postal address, telephone number and email address;
- a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law;
- a statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorised to act on behalf of the owner.
Please be aware that knowingly misrepresenting that material is infringing may make you liable for damages, including costs and legal fees.
7.2 Counter-notice
If material you contributed has been removed and you believe that this was the result of a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice by email to [email protected] with the subject line “Copyright Counter-Notice”, including:
- your physical or electronic signature;
- identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal;
- a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification;
- your name, address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or their agent.
On receiving a valid counter-notice, we may forward it to the person who submitted the original notice. Unless that person informs us within 10 to 14 business days that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the alleged infringement, we may restore the removed material.
7.3 Repeat infringers
We will remove the contributor access of any staff member or contributor who is found to be a repeat infringer, and we may remove all assets uploaded by that person.
8. Acceptable use
You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not harm the Site, its operators or other users. In particular, you must not:
- scrape, crawl or harvest the Site or its download servers in a way that places an unreasonable load on our infrastructure, or copy the Site’s catalogue, descriptions or images to build a competing collection;
- use bots, scripts or other automated tools to download assets in bulk, or download assets at a rate that a person using a normal web browser could not reasonably achieve;
- hotlink to our download files, previews or images from other websites or applications, or present our download links on another website in a way that bypasses our asset pages;
- block, hide, alter or interfere with advertisements in a way that breaches advertising policies, generate artificial ad impressions or clicks, or encourage others to click on advertisements;
- probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the Site, bypass any security, rate-limiting or access control measure, or attempt to access the administration area or any account without authorisation;
- upload, transmit or link to viruses, malware, spyware or any other harmful code;
- interfere with or disrupt the Site, its servers or networks, including through denial-of-service attacks;
- impersonate any person, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or organisation;
- use the Site in breach of any applicable law or regulation.
Search engines and reputable services may index the public pages of the Site in accordance with our robots.txt file.
9. Ratings and reports
Visitors may rate assets and submit reports about assets that are broken, contain bugs, may infringe copyright or raise another concern. You agree that:
- ratings should reflect your genuine opinion of an asset, and you must not manipulate ratings, for example by voting repeatedly, using multiple devices or networks, or using automated tools;
- reports must be made in good faith and must be accurate to the best of your knowledge;
- any optional text you include in a report must not contain unlawful, abusive or offensive material, or personal information that is not needed to describe the issue.
To prevent duplicate votes and reports, we store a hashed form of your IP address, as explained in our Privacy Policy. We may remove ratings or reports that appear to be manipulated or abusive, and we decide at our discretion what action, if any, to take in response to a report.
10. Advertising
The Site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense and its partners, which helps us keep all assets free. Advertisers are solely responsible for their advertisements and for the products and services they offer. We do not endorse, and are not responsible for, any advertised product or service, and any dealings you have with an advertiser are solely between you and that advertiser. Information about the cookies used for advertising, and how to opt out of personalised ads, is set out in our Privacy Policy.
11. Third-party links
The Site may contain links to websites and services operated by third parties, including asset creators’ portfolios, software tools and documentation. These links are provided for convenience only. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, policies or practices of any third-party website, and the inclusion of a link does not imply our endorsement. Your use of third-party websites is at your own risk and subject to their terms.
12. Disclaimers
The Site and all assets are provided free of charge on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement and accuracy.
In particular, we do not warrant that:
- any asset will meet your requirements, be compatible with your software, game engine or pipeline, or be free from errors, defects or technical issues such as broken geometry, missing textures or incorrect scale;
- the Site or its download servers will be available, uninterrupted, timely or secure;
- any file is free from viruses or other harmful components, despite the precautions we take;
- the descriptions, previews, ratings or other information on the Site are complete or accurate.
You are responsible for scanning every downloaded file with up-to-date antivirus software before opening it, for keeping backups of your work, and for checking that each asset is suitable for your intended use, including any legal or licensing requirements of the platforms on which you publish your projects.
13. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, neither we nor our staff, contributors, hosting providers or partners will be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill or business opportunity, arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the Site or any asset, whether based on contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or any other legal theory, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Because the Site and the assets are provided free of charge, our total liability to you for all claims arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms will not exceed fifty United States dollars (USD 50).
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.
14. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Free Game Assets, its operator, staff and contributors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in any way connected with your breach of these Terms or the Asset Licence, your misuse of the Site or any asset, or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party. This section does not apply to the extent that the claim results from our own breach of these Terms.
15. Termination and restriction of access
We may suspend, restrict or terminate your access to all or part of the Site at any time and without notice, including by blocking IP addresses or ranges, if we reasonably believe that you have breached these Terms, that your use is causing harm or excessive load to the Site, or that this is necessary for legal or security reasons. We may also remove any asset, rating or report at our discretion.
If your right to use the Site ends because you have breached these Terms, the Asset Licence for assets you obtained in breach of these Terms also ends. Otherwise, the Asset Licence for assets you downloaded lawfully, and the projects you created with them, will continue in accordance with section 4. Sections 4 to 7 and 12 to 20 survive any termination.
16. Changes to the service and to these Terms
We may modify, suspend or discontinue the Site, or any part of it, at any time. We may also revise these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page, and where changes are significant we will make reasonable efforts to bring them to your attention, for example by displaying a notice on the Site. Revised Terms apply to your use of the Site and to downloads made after they are published. Assets you downloaded earlier remain licensed under the version of the Terms in force at the time of download. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you should stop using the Site.
17. Governing law
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the Site are governed by the laws applicable in the jurisdiction in which the site operator resides, without regard to conflict of law principles. Before starting any formal proceedings, you agree to contact us at [email protected] so that we can try to resolve the matter informally.
If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms affects the rights you have under the mandatory consumer protection laws of the country in which you live, including any right to bring proceedings in your local courts.
18. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
19. Entire agreement and waiver
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any licence terms shown on an individual asset page, form the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Site and the assets, and supersede any prior agreements or understandings on the same subject. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of that right or provision. You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign our rights and obligations to any successor operator of the Site.
20. Contact
If you have any questions about these Terms, the Asset Licence or a particular asset, or if you wish to send a copyright notice, please contact us by email at [email protected]. We do not have a postal address for general enquiries, and email is the fastest way to reach us.
