If more people in your office want to test - they can apply with a different e-mail for a trial or, if you want to manage all licenses centrally, you can write us at for more test licenses.| 3dsMax & Vray, Software, Tips & Tricks, TutorialsĬhaos Group are currently public beta testing the latest incarnation of Vray for Max (Vray 3.5). Regarding the trial licenses - you receive 1 workstation license (1 GUI+ 1 Render node), meaning that it can be used on 1 machine at a time. Otherwise - the license settings should point towards the machine with the license server installed (and the machine should be turned on). Does the dongle only allow one trial licience?If you search for a license on your local machine (the localhost) you need to have a license server instance installed there. I've added localhost as an alternative, but no luck. Working flawlessly on one machine, but on mine, I get the (-200) problem. I too am trying to get the demo working (max 2018 and VrayNEXT), but on both our workstations. Sorry, to jump in, but it looks like Tricky's problem is resolved. This is why we don't like to upgrade very often. This is what I see when I launch the license server management window:. I have disabled my Windows Firewall but njo change. Launching the VRay NEXT renderer from Max2019 suggests I don't have a license. I have installed Max 2019 and then VRay NEXT. The licenses are on a dongle connected to our server. Why must it always be so darn difficult? Unfortunately, I am busy so I don't have time to troubleshoot so I thought I'd post this to see if support can point me in the right direction for next time I have a few spare minutes.Ĥx licenses of VRay 3.6 and 19x render nodes

As I quietly expected, I can't get the license working. Thought I'd give Max 2019 and VRay NEXT a trial for comparison to our current setup (3dsmax2018 and VRay 3.6) to see if it is worthwhile our upgrade.
