ForceWorkstationMode in 3dsMax-plugin

[DaDiceman]

Hi,

I cannot find the point where the ForceWorkstationMode-flag is used in the 3dsMax-plugin. We try to run some scripts with floating licenses in workstation mode, but it does not pick up the license. I cannot find any point where it would set the yc-parameter for the floating license in the 3dsmax.py. Do you have any idead what we are missing?

Thank you,
Christian

The 3dsmax.py file has a UseSlaveMode property, which gets set to False if forcing workstation mode. When set to True, we pass the -s argument to Max to run it in slave mode.

Hope that helps!

Okay, thank you. So you leave the license handling completely to the user? We were able to solve the problem by re-installing 3ds Max.

Thank you,
