Urgent - licensing issue on 3dsmax startup Tweet

[Norman_Stansfield]

I have this message after most recent update:

What to do? Everytime I start max or standalone. Tried unlocking licenses, no luck.
I have old-fashioned perpetual (enterprise?) license purchased some years ago.
What to do now to get back to octane?

Hi Norman_Stansfield,
to use Octane V2018.x and above you would purchase OctaneRender All-Access Extension $199 (1 Year) - $399 (2 years) https://home.otoy.com/render/octane-render/purchase/
All-Access to the Industry's largest DCC plug-in ecosystem Octane 'All-Access' Enterprise subscription plans, beginning in Q1 2019, can access multiple DCC plugins from OctaneRender Studio - including Maya, AutoCAD, Revit, Houdini, Blender, 3ds Max, After Effects, Nuke, Unity, and soon, Unreal Engine.
All-Access to Extra Rendering Power
For perpetual licence/enterprise customers, All-Access plans further grant a secondary render slave node plus access to the ORC cloud rendering service.
All-Access to the Future
Get continuous access to all future updates and new features beyond OctaneRender 4, including NVLink (available in Octane 2018.1) and full Vulkan-RTX hardware acceleration on Turing GPUs coming in Octane 2019.
Regards
Paride

1. So I should buy 1-year extension and any other way is impossible?

2. What about my current license? Does it add "All-Access plans further grant a secondary render slave node plus access to the ORC cloud rendering service" - if i understood well?
