  • License Transfer Utility - 3ds Max 2017

    Asking if anyone has tried the LTU recently to transfer an old (2017) license to a new PC?
    I upgrading to a new 13900KS PC and want to carry on using my perpetual license, as max2017 / vray 3 - does everything I need.
    I'm assuming I can install Max 2017 / vray onto the new PC as if it were a render node and then use the LTU to transfer the license from my old PC which would become a render node.
    My questions are: will it work? Will Autodesk come and bite me in the ass? If I do need a new authorisation code, can I still get one (AD seem to have forgotten I ever had a perpetual license.)
    [I know it's out of date but it still does 95% of a 2024 license and doesn't cost me an arm n leg, plus I still have 6 FREE render nodes if I want]
    thanks for your advice
    Simon

      FYI -- Well I can report it works...not the LTU as it has to speak to AD and AD are not talking back to old duffers like 2017me! It installed with the original s/n and doesn't seem to mind, apart from crashing after start-up until "libeay32_Ad_1.dll" was removed. It also didn't like SpectrumRenderer.dlr when trying to use RT, so that was removed too.

      "Everything sweet and clean now after the rain"...as David Essex once said! OOOhLaa!
