Six characters: runtime drivers and standing portraits — separate rights notice

The six lossless .glb.gz runtime archives under public/assets/drivers/ and the
six standing-character portrait archives under public/assets/portraits/ are
supplied for this non-commercial AI Friends Kart demo. They are served from
assets/drivers/ and assets/portraits/ beside the demo. They are distinct from
the AGPL-3.0-only game code and original kart, props, track and UI.

The project owner identifies these character outputs as originating from
Tripo Free and subject to non-commercial restrictions. The exact applicable
redistribution terms have not been independently established here. Inclusion
in this demo must not be read as a claim that all redistribution rights have
been verified or cleared. This notice does not grant a new license, a Creative
Commons license, commercial rights, sublicensing rights, or any other rights
beyond those actually held under the applicable original terms.

Do not treat these characters or their portrait derivatives as AGPL assets.
Code availability does not relicense model geometry, textures, character
designs or associated rights. This demo has no advertisements, payment flow
or commercial model sale. Before reusing, redistributing or monetizing the
models, establish the rights and obtain any permission required by their
applicable terms. The project owner's permission to publish this demo is
not a general rights grant.

The public manifests are docs/runtime-models.json (six rigged driving models)
and docs/portrait-models.json (six separate standing portraits). They list
final model paths, compressed/decoded byte sizes and SHA-256 checksums.
Standing portraits derive from the original standing character meshes before
driving-rig and pose edits. Gemini uses the approved center-only character.
Portrait geometry is optimized for browser preview; embedded textures are
retained, and portraits contain no driving rig or driving animations.

Only final runtime GLBs, losslessly gzip-compressed, are included. No character
Blender projects, raw high-poly originals, separate textures, work files or
private source references are distributed. Non-runtime private metadata has
been removed. Geometry optimization is a separate portrait preparation step;
lossless gzip describes the final archive compression, not that optimization.

The corresponding-source ZIP intentionally does not duplicate either set of
large character archives. A full repository clone includes both sets. The
source ZIP includes both checksum manifests and all corresponding game code,
tests and build scripts. Rebuilding code from it works without character
archives; for the complete visuals, run npm run models:fetch to restore the
verified files under public/assets/drivers/ and public/assets/portraits/.
This dev source retrieves from the isolated public /dev/ preview, whose new
portraits are not part of the preserved stable root. The original kart/prop
Blender sources were already public and remain included for their AGPL
corresponding-source completeness.

Setting-sheet emblems

The six PNGs under public/character-emblems/ are extracted from the top-right
emblems in the owner's supplied final character setting sheets. Display names
use those sheets' Chinese names. No model IDs, geometry or saved builds change.
These character artworks remain distinct from the AGPL code; their inclusion
under the owner's authorization is not a general redistribution or commercial
rights grant. Source hashes, crop coordinates and output hashes are recorded
in docs/character-emblems.json. Original full sheets and private source
references are not redistributed. Extraction preserves the original emblem
pixels and colors, including surrounding motif stars; no AI redraw is used.

000 pure white rice food kart (DEV)

This original food-kart addition uses the owner-approved C pure-rice design.
The public runtime derivative reduces rice-surface geometry and bakes base
color to vertex colors; full-fidelity source and runtime hashes are separately
recorded in docs/white-rice-runtime-provenance.json. These food-kart assets
are separate from the six restricted third-party character models above.
All 001–054 food-kart public bundles remain unchanged.
