- Enter your email/password you use for the customer gateway, then the license key which you should have received by email. If you can't find that email please check your spam folder. If you still can't find it please contact us through the "Contact Sales" form in the customer gateway or here and request your license key. If you are connecting your computer through a proxy, you may also enter that proxy here. It is important that any firewalls you may have do not block the license activator from reaching our servers, or the license key can't be validated.
- The license activator will connect to our servers and validate your license, after which it will store a license file in $HOME/Maxwell. Maxwell Render, Maxwell Studio, and all the plugins will check this location for that .lic file to see if Maxwell Render is licensed or not.
- Please restart Maxwell to make sure that it is properly licensed (check the Console panel for any red error messages).
- Enjoy Maxwell Render!
