Hello,
Unfortunately, our entire graphics department has been made redundant, and so I’ve asked for the V-Ray 3.6 for Maya licences that will no longer be used to be given out to our 3 3D artists…
How could we go about doing this?
You have to install V-Ray -
and to point the license settings of your 3D guys towards the license server machine - Chaos Docs
Thank you for the reply, Ivan.
As the whole team is being made redundant, I don’t think there will be a licence server machine (nor anyone to look after it). Is it possible to permanently transfer a licence to each team member?
If the infrastructure is still in the company this shouldn’t be related to left team members or a whole team for that matter. Your licenses are associated either with a hardware dongle or with a ChaosGroup username. There should be a computer that server as a license server machine for the users and redistributed the licenses. Alternatively - if they were just a few people - the might have personal dongles or a license server installed on each machine and activated with the company account? In either case - you can use the license carrier for the 3D team.
We’ve got licences associated with a ChaosGroup username (that’s got one V-Ray for Maya 3.0 licence, and 11 render nodes), and then each team member (3 accounts) have got a licence that I think have been transferred online. We’ve only got a few licences, which were originally dongle based (we’ve still got the dongles).
Just wondered if the ‘transfer of licence form’ would be used here? As per this thread… Selling my VRay licence - General - Chaos Forum
It’ll be best to message us with details at sales@chaosgroup.com about that.
Ok, will do, thanks!
sorry to hear about the redundancies.
Thank you! Its a big shame, but onwards and upwards we go :).
