My Indie license expired in December, I'm trying to find info on how to renew it, or do I just buy a new license? Or is that the same thing? Thanks!

I ran into the same thing last year - SideFx support said to just buy a new one, as they don't have a renewal system set up yet.

A new license it is then, thanks!

My license will expire in a few days. Did something change in terms of license renewal or do I still just buy a new license?

Does anyone know if this is still the case (no auto-renewal, must re-purchase manually)?

Cheers

Must be… mine expires 4th July and I've had no e-mails to remind me. I'm certainly renewing the license of this wonderful software but I'd have liked a smooth, automated, transition.

Same problem here, I asked the support and they told me there is no renew process, I have to purchase another license

When you go to buy/renew it gives the option ( before you actually purchase ) of when you want the new license to start.

The caveat with that is you only have a 7 day span from the time of purchase.

So best bet is to keep a record of you expiration and purchase within last 7 days.

On a side note, I use the printf function a fair bit when writting in wrangles and as my expiration date was nearing I was getting notice of this fact popping up in that console window.

From others on this post, I gather it was only because I was using the console that I got the message, otherwise I might not have seen it.

Probably might be a good rfe to have some kind of option in preferences that gives a ‘notice’ when one starts Houdini as to license is about to expire; perhaps with choice of how often and when those notices start.

Thanks; did just that and set it for the 4th July.

No Option to set start date, when buy/renew.
2 of my 3 license expires today. I have been trying to buy/renew for a week. There are not options and I get the following error.
“Houdini Indie has a maximum limit available for purchase online. Please decrease your quantity or contact sales@sidefx.com”
