Hi there,

I recently purchased the RealFlow for Cinema4D floating license and read how difficult the licensing will be setup.
Come on guys - please find an easier way to setup licensing! It was a pita to finally get Maxwell up and running again and it looks like it is even worse to get RF to run.

there are still some things that I don't understand...

1. For Maxwell I use my floating license by setting the rlm up and using a floating license entering the license nr from the portal website and that works.
for RealFlow I have to use a static(?) IP (though I'm travelling all the time?!) but it says nowhere how to find that IP, and then if I use the RLM already for another program (i.e. Maxwell) I have to edit the host.lic file to another port number, otherwise it screws the rlm... nice - why can't that be automated?

2. I want to use RealFlow on 2 computers. my everyday workhorse laptop and the pc at home. therefore I got a floating license.
now - one question that I cannot find anywhere in the documentation: According to the documentation I should do the licensing on one pc (that will be my laptop) and then copy the host.lic file to the other (my home desktop pc). Do I need to have the laptop running when using the desktop pc in order to be able to use RealFlow in Cinema4D?

3. in the Cinema Plugin there are only 2 options for licensing: Demo or node-locked license - why can't I start to license the floating license there?

4. the RF demo videos don't show the current plugin!

5. is there a RealFlow forum?

thank you for any help you can give me. It would be nice if you could find a way to make things easier again...

...and btw: the link 'tutorials' in the RealFlow Plugin links to an error page.

...the videos showing the features don't show the current state of the plugin... (domains are now called fluids or is that something else? collider tag settings are different now...)
