Hello

I am new to Maxwell and try to enter my serial Number, but I cannot launch the License Activator.

Here is my setup:
Maxwell 3.1.4
Maya 2015 SP2
Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10.1


I start Maya, Maxwell is loaded properly (Fire is working) but when the Maxwell License Error Window pops open I try to hit the "Start License Activator" button, but nothing happens.
Am I doing anything wrong? Is this not working with my setup? Or is there another way to get into the License Activator?Ther

Thnx in advance
Martin

Hi,

Did you install the main Maxwell package? The plug-in is a separate installer and does not contain the renderer. After you install the main package, run Studio or Maxwell standalone, so one of them can create the file associations for the MXS file extension. The plug-in uses the file association to determine where the renderer is installed, so it can run Maxwell standalone from that directory when you render (and to start the license activator, and to load procedurals etc.).
