Kurrykid Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 I would like to have 2 versions of A:M so I am considering buying a used version and paying the $99 for the upgrade. Is this an acceptable approach? As long as I have a valid serial #, is there any issues? I want to have a second machine that I can push my rendering over to while I am continuing to work on my main machine. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to have a second machine that I can push my rendering over to while I am continuing to work on my main machine. A very valid approach. The only issue/word of caution would be to make sure the copy you purchase is valid. You might run it by Hash Inc to make sure.

luckbat Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 "One user, many machines" is the official policy. See this thread: http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=3693 By the way, since A:M doesn't yet support dual processors, any dual-core machine can be both renderer and work machine at the same time.

luckbat Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Run two instances of the application. Your OS should automatically assign one processor to each instance. The renderer will max out one processor, and you can continue to work using the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
