Houdini Indie with Deadline Licenses

no, it should be rendering with HoudiniEngine licenses, not full liceneses.

I think you can force a full license, but you have to force it on a specific machine. This is in the link above with the image showing ‘Escape’ license (this is actually for a ‘core’) license.

There’s another thread about this here

I don’t think there’s a simple way of automating the switch, but there was some update licensing env vars from SideFX, I’ll see if I can dig them out. sounds like it won’t be straight forward either.
