After the → installation open RealFlow | Maya and the "License Activator" will pop up if RealFlow | Maya has not been licensed yet.

  • This guide is for Node Locked licenses only. 
  • An internet connection is required
  • Firewalls may block the license activation.

The "License Activator" provides three options:

 

I have a license key

Choose this option if you have an activation key. The key can be found in your confirmation email from Next Limit. If you did not receive this email please check your spam folder or → contact us.




  • Enter your email/password you use for the customer gateway, then the license key from the email.
  • The "License Activator" will connect to our servers and validate your license
  • The license file will be stored under /Users/<username>/Documents/realflow_maya/license/
  • Restart RealFlow | Maya to make sure that it is properly licensed.

I have a license file (.lic)

If you have a license file already choose this option.

 

 

  • All you have to do is to select the .lic file from any location on your harddisk.
  • If you do not have the license file stored locally download it from the customer portal.
  • RealFlow | Maya will store a copy of the file under /Users/<username>/Documents/realflow_maya/license/

I want to try the demo

  • Choose the demo option and click on "Next".
  • This action will create a LIC file in /Users/<username>/Documents/realflow_maya/license/
  • If you later purchase a license, make sure to first delete this demo license file before running the "License Activator".
