Hello Marsel,
I was interested in finding out how the Licensing system for Lucid will work with Network rendering when it is available for sale. I haven't tried a network render yet so had a few questions on this topic.
Will it be possible to install Lucid on render nodes for network rendering? (Similar setup to how 3ds max works in 'unregistered mode'? Will there be a limit to the amount of render licenses available with 1x Lucid UI license or will there be an unlimited amount of render nodes?
Currently I suppose users could export their simulations as an alembic sequence, XMesh, PRT, Particle flow Cache, etc in order to render on the farm without requiring a Lucid license. I imagine users will still want to have lucid installed on the render farm so they can simply submit a .max scene to the network and have it render, either reading cache data in the .max scene or the .lrd files.
In summary, just wondering if there will be a render-only license, or specific license limitations for network rendering?
Cheers!
