Hi,

So Enteprise licensing (BUY option) are gone, from now on and forward Octane is RENT only ?

I have (had?) 3 Enterprise licences and I wonder what is my best option now?
It says it includes 10 render nodes with 1 RENT but what if I want to open 2 standlones (or plugins on my 2nd machine) in same time (i'e rendering 2 different projects)? I need to buy 2nd Studio+ licence and have 20 render nodes which are "wasted" since I don't have 20 computers and I just wanted 2 standalone (Enterprise) and maybe 1 render node?

Could there be a better way for Render nodes ? Like make Single license cheaper and charge extra for render nodes to those who need them ?

Thanks

From now on, every active Subscription has been transformed into a Studio+ Subscription, so no more 2x GPU limit, and Network render +10 render-Nodes for all the subscribers!

Happy GPU rendering!

So no more 2x GPU limit, Network Render available for all licenses, with 10x Render-Nodes included!

The Black Friday offer ends at 30/12/2022.

Happy GPU rendering!

A bit misleading. Just saying
Oops, sorry, my mistake, I have corrected the post from the first day.
Basically I have confused it with the latest date to redeem the GSG coupon :(

ciao,

@Lewis:
please consider that single Standalone license is not available from a long time now, probably from 2019.
And it was pretty expensive, like ~400€.

Ok so how do we use Lightwave plugin Studio+ verison for this new system when LW DEV says LW Studio+ version is not existing and Network rendering will not work ?


Here is quote from Juan:
Juanjo wrote: I suppose that you should be able to continue using your current 2021.1 "enterprise" and "studio" plugin builds as long as you have an active subscription, but currently, there isn't a LightWave plugin 2021.1 "studio+" version to allow the network rendering while working with the "studio" plugin builds.

@bepeg4d:
after Black Friday offer is finished, Studio+ will cost 19.99€/month, starting in January (15.99/month with today's Black Friday offer):
I just wanted to go ahead and buy the black friday offer, because I understood this is going to be available until January. Noooo... now its gone. Any exception can be made?? It was so good as I am also GSG user and this would have been perfect. :((

Hi silanbekjarov,

sorry, Black Friday offer lasted a week.

But please consider that GSG offer was only redeemable by new Greyscalegorilla Plus customers and returning OTOY Black Friday 2021 customers, who renew using the code before their auto renewal date. The coupon cannot be redeemed to renew any other current Greyscalegorilla Plus account.

ciao,
Beppe
