This option is not integrated into the plugin yet but sounds like a really good Feature for the next update, I would look into this to find the best solution for your request.
Thanks for reaching out, I tried to answer your email but I got a delivery issue several times, yes our plugin runs down to 3Ds max 2014, that is the oldest version Corona Render support unofficially.
Hello Gabiru, Thanks for your interest, Unfortunately, every license is unique and linked to your email and system, if you want to use it on more than one PC you will need to request a new license for each system you want to use the plugin with.
Sorry about the email failure.
I sent you an email via a different one, could you see if it works by replying please.
At that point I will purchase the plug in.
