Creating a Valid License File
Once you have verified that your existing license is the proper version and you
have received your license from Softimage Licensing, you can create the valid
license file on your client workstation.
To create and validate a license file
1. Click the Start button and choose Programs > SOFTIMAGE Products >
Licensing > LicTools.
2. Do one of the following:
• If you are creating a new license file, click New License.
• If you have an existing license file and need to add the floating license for
remote processing, click Existing License.
3. You will normally click Existing License, since you want to replace the old
license with the new one you received from Avid\DS for the new release.
The License File Window opens showing the existing license file name.
4. Select SoftImage(.lic) and click Open.
