Node license activation

[Headroom]

I've sent an email to support@indigorender.com but have not received a response yet.

If I remember correctly (and I may actually be wrong) there were two node licenses included with the initial Indigo license I purchased. I've never used these but aside from my main machine now have two idling PCs in the house that I would like to utilize to support rendering.

I am assuming these node licenses need to be registered separately ?

No. Deep down in your inbox somewhere there is probably an e-mail with your original Indigo standalone license. If you follow that link there should be two node licenses waiting for you as well.

Aha. Thanks! I had found it before, clicked on the link and was presented with an online form requesting me to fill out "stuff". Needless to say, these questions are a tad out of Date, I mean, OS X Lion ?

Now that I've clicked past it I should be good to go! Thanks again for the help!

There is one question the I'd like to answer as my secondary modeling package.
That actually is Fusion 360. This should be interesting for you OscarJ. There is not direct link to Indigo unfortunately.

Glad it worked out for you. It's a little pain in the arse having to answer those questions every time you want to get to your licenses. Especially considering that there's absolutely no use in answering them since they're like three years outdated. That stuff should either be taken down or updated to avoid pissing users off.

I'm sorry, what should be interesting for me?

Autodesk Fusion 360.
It provides a perfect blend between T-Spline and solid modeling.

For an aspiring designer it's definitely something to look at. It still lacks many features that more powerful software packages such as Autodesk Alias have, but it is developing quite rapidly.

Thanks for the tip - looks pretty interesting!

I probably need to master Alias to be taken seriously though, so first things first. I have had a course in it already - should model a car to put in my folio probably, but the application is just painfully unintuitive.

Hi

Rhino for Mac and Windows + Grasshopper can be the best solution for quality / price. The latest version of Vectorworks 2016 also enables parametric modeling with Marionette.
Rhino rivals Alias costing much less.

Rhino wins hands down when counting bang for the buck. Nicer UI as well. Fortunately for me I have an Alias license (well, at least until I graduate).

I started writing a Rhino-to-Indigo plug-in a while back. Got far enough to start exporting basic materials and scenes, though would still need to wrap my head around the Rhino API properly.

If there is interest, I could try to dig it up and GitHub it or something?

Hi

Indigo for Rhino (Mac & Win) would be greatly appreciated!
