RE: Soft licenses still available for purchase?

Yeah, problematic. Reselling "used" software is allowed in the EU but since you don't own the software itself but just only the license (to use it), you would have to transfer the license to someone else. License transfer can only issued by Autodesk. Floating licenses are bound to machine name a

Re: Soft licenses still available for purchase?

I'm not sure its that simple. I looked into this EU ruling in my AD time and l was told at the time by one of the legal guys that its is Autodesk's belief that their license transfer policy is compatible with the EU ruling. I would advise checking with Autodesk and/or one of their partners on this

I believe in the EU second-hand trading of software licenses are legal. http://www.computerweekly.com/news/2240214493/Second-hand-software-legal-or-illegal Of course, finding somebody prepared to sell is possibly problematic. On 15 September 2015 at 22:49, Tenshi . wrote: > I was saving for a S

I was saving for a Softimage license only, i thought i could get one from a reseller but now it's clear that we need to spend 4k for a)software i don't want. b)software that is already dead. This is real? I want my machine to have at least one softimage license, not student or something like that.

(Psst! RedShift! : ) I wouldn't count on the possibility of transferring licenses (regardless if 'baught' and paid for, ownership in the traditional sense was already compromized a while ago) On 09/15/15 16:23, Patrick Neese wrote:

Very true but don't forget you are dealing with Autodesk. I think it's the other way around. What's if AD had more costs involved to launch two new applications called 'Maya with Softimage' and '3dsmax with Softimage"? Both comes with their own product keys and therefore all the licensing wo

Hi sorry I guess it's just that 4k for Softimage? considering it's status? I don't think it's just me that finds that really way too steep Ouch! ;/ And I think it could also be like an act of good will considering what has become of the status of Softimage. Not that asking for a fair price

Hi Jason, It is not really feasible in the sense that it is not easy to do and it would be misleading for me to imply that there is any chance that it will happen. The program introduced was a transition to Maya or 3ds Max and those are your only options now as far as new Softimage licenses are

This was probably in mid 2014, when is was still possible to get soft licenses alone. When I wanted to update my soft2011 license in dec 2014, AD did not allow it and forced me to buy the bundle with max or maya. The update was around 2500EUR (floating license from soft2011 to 2015 including 3

NP Tim, It is essentially a bundle of these two products. It is the same price as either Maya or 3ds Max standalone. It was created for the transition and offered at the same price as those products alone. I think the price is $3950 or something like that in the US (I am not sure of exact prices
