Hi again,

Thought I'd post here as mails tend not to go anywhere! I'm on the fence of transferring my license to an online one as I'm not keen on having to always be online. Whilst technically that's 90% true I want to maintain the ability to use the software should I be offline.

Am I right that to be able to use my other computer in the house I'd need to purchase another complete license? If so that's quite draconian. I can only go by my own circumstances but it goes like this: My "main" computer is a MacBook, fine for designing and editing in Chaotica. The "family" PC is in my son's room and is rarely useable outside of school time lol! I tried the demo on it and the speed difference in the Open CL was over 7500 vs 837 for my Mac!! You can do the math here!

Ideally, I'd like to work on my Mac and batch send stuff to render on the big rig. I'm at pains to set up the PC as the main computer as I cannot always get on it, but on the flipside, the Mac has severe power limitations.

Sorry for the waffle, is there a best way to contact Chaotica about this and find out more?

Thanks.

Email them your question. It's usually the fastest way to get an answer on licensing questions. support@glaretechnologies.com

Well I did give it another go.

I've now sent 3 emails to that email address and not received a single answer. To be honest, it's pretty poor service. They didn't mind taking my money a month and a half ago but cannot talk to a customer in any way. I assume from this that this app is effectively dead and I shouldn't bother asking for any help from them. But...I'm sure if I bought another license they'd also take that money. I'm frustrated now!
