If you transition you will be offered a new license for the bundle. As part of that transaction you will no longer be authorized to use your old license as per the transition agreement (because you are trading it in). If you are asking whether it is possible to enforce or whether we will enforce it I cannot comment publicly on that. Similarly in two years' time, if you are on Subscription, you will receive a new Maya or 3ds Max only license. If you choose not to install it nothing happens but you will not be able to run newer versions of either 3ds Max or Maya released after that date.

Maurice.. can you explain to me how my 2014 node locked lic would be affected in two years if I decide to transition to maya? The lic would still work as soft doesnt check in to AD everytime I start up... You guys really need to look at this... seriously..

This is a fair & reasonable thing to expect after the many thousands of dollars invested in Softimage and the years of subscription fees.

I honestly don't see why we couldn't just have the frozen Softimage version be included in the Maya/Max license after migrating, I'm forced to decimate my total number of seats in order to retain access to my Softimage projects, you're forcing everyone to buy new seats, to cover for the ones you will loose in order to keep some Softimage seats available. It's simply unacceptable.

You will now be able to use both products concurrently (the license functions like a Suite license). If you are on Subscription you can migrate at no cost. Even if you migrate you will still have two options depending on whether Maya (or 3ds Max) works for you or not: o If it is not working out for you, you can stop renewing subscription - you will then still be able to use both products in perpetuity (at whatever release version Maya or 3ds Max is on at the time) o If it is working for you and you renew Subscription, after two years when we stop support, you will be moved to wither a Maya-only or 3ds Max-only subscription plan. o If you want to migrate but continue to access Softimage after two years, we recommend that you not transition all your seats or if you do, do not keep the Subscription current on all of them - that way you will have a few licenses that you can maintain to access older projects Maurice Maurice Patel Autodesk : Tél: 514 954-7134<tel:514%20954-7134>
