Do you have Vantage running when you do this ? Or maybe a firewall is blocking the connection ?

Yes, but Vantage was removed from Premium. I say becasue I had the same error and it was becasue Vantage 2 came out, and was removed from Premium, requiring its own seperate license.

Before attempting Live Link, start Vanatge from the start menu or desktop. Check if the Live Link menu looks like this screenshot: https://docs.chaos.com/display/LAV/Live+Link+Menu

If it does and you still get the same error, I think it's 99.9% caused by security software blocking the connection.

DID they remove it from premium while i had already paid for......? that is unbelivable.. really? that is not correct.... to change when i paid in advance for the whole year subscription.... thanks for the info... then you might be right that is why is not working...wasting alot of time looking for a solution... not even an email where they advise the change

[glorybound]

Yes, they removed it from the premium package and it is now its own things. The premium package also stayed the same price. They sent out some emails about the change.

No, Vantage was NOT removed for users who HAD bought premium before 2.0 was released. It is available for the remaining duration of these subscriptions. It is not included in Premium only for purchases made after the 2.0 release.

my resaller said that it works for the whole period of subscription made in advance ... that is why vrayscene is uploaded in Vantage and works ..... but i still can't get livelink working....
