Hi I know i am a bit behind on my softimage license, v7.0.1, and from today i even cant upgrade it anymore... well havnt been able to for a long time :-(
My more pressing problem though is i want to keep using this fine version, but im moving to a new workstation running windows 8.1, and im having trouble to get my USB ibutton dongle to be seen by the license manager. I have installed the 64bit drivers from here: http://www.maximintegrated.com/products/ibutton/software/tmex/download_drivers.cfm but the license manager just wont see the dongle. I can see on my former workstation that it is also a totally different USB device driver that is installed on that, so maybe it is just the wrong driver i have installed. so... Does any of you here on the list have the driver that was supplied by Avid for the dongle, i just cant find it in between all my softimage installer files. ...or is there some issues with softimage v7 and windows 8? I really dont hope i have to give up this nice software just now, although i only have an aging version, it is still nicer and more fun to use than most other 3d apps. Robert
