Hi,
I ve got a question regarding plugins and installations.
I got 2 computers one with c4d home use and another 3ds max work computer.
If I buy one standalone version with 2 plugins, can I install 2nd plugin on the work computer or they have to be on the same computer?
I see that there is licensing for 3 computers. In my case, should I buy 2 standalone and 2 plugins? How does it work? Is there any kind of floating licence?
Thank you!
M
one stand alone with 2 plugin licensing

There is currently no floating license option, however it is possible to deactivate on one machine, then activate on another.
The de-activation can be done either in the User Interface or via the accounts page on the website.
The specific steps to de-activate in the UI of Standalone and the Plugins vary, so it would be best to check out the documentation here:

The license server limits you to one re-activation per hour (for each license).
So, if the license had been previously activated within an hour of the re-activation attempt, the license will not activate.
Please note that all plugins require an activated OctaneRender Standalone license on the machine to function.
So to have two machines licensed simultaneously; one with Cinema 4D plugin and one with the 3DS Max plugin, you will need:
