Didn’t realize. And agreed. Flame systems get re-installed pretty regularly.

Hi,  
PrimatteAI is currently in beta testing for Version 1.3. Version 1.2 has already been released in Japan, and Version 1.3 is scheduled for release by the end of this year.  
Regarding Linux licensing, I’ve received similar requests from Japanese users. At present, we issue a new license whenever the system is updated, and the ID changes.  
Possible alternatives include:  
BIOS ID  
MAC address  
HASP dongle  
Before adopting the current scheme, I used the BIOS ID, but it didn’t work reliably in virtual machine environments.  
I’d appreciate your thoughts on this matter.  
Thank you, Yaz Mishima

Thanks for the update.

I think the Mac Address seems readily available and should be stable on physical work stations.

Not sure how well that works on cloud instances. But any hardware identifier would be problematic in that environment.

Generally speaking I would have recommended iLok, which has a cloud (i.e. non-dongle) license type as well and is generally well regarded and many users may already have it. And it has great e-com support, as many software packages can sell an activation code, which users can then claim on their license account.

But it’s not natively supported on Linux. Some folks have gotten it to work, but that may not be good enough.

Either way, anything that relies on a stable hardware id is complicated in today’s infrastructure. A network based login license, similar to what Flame and Nuke now use, should be the standard. I don’t know what type of 3rd party solutions exist that would allow you to implement this easily.

A hardware dongle as a backup is nice for folks that have an air-gapped install.

FlexLM/RLM type floating license server is the only reasonable solution.

Hi everyone,  
I’ve created a video manual for PrimatteAI for Autodesk Flame.  
Chapter 1 is now available here:

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/thedepartmentofexternalservices/original/2X/c/ccc007004b11b577f77a5cd6c243f372a1c19243.jpeg "primatteAIvideoManual chapter1") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5rqTC_nmq8)

The series includes six chapters, with a new chapter released every Monday through mid-January 2025.

Check it out, and let me know your thoughts!

Unfortunately no. FlexLM is too costly for my product. Sigh.

We need some type of licensing that is not tied to the ephemeral system-id. I re-install OS on my machine at least 1 times per month for a variety of reasons. Use a MAC address or something that is at least persistent. Otherwise, as much as I love Primate, I can’t even consider this a product.

@hemibola Any progress on getting a new licensing scheme. I would love to purchase Primatte, but there is ZERO chance I will with the current paradigm.

Hi Alan,

Thank you for asking.  
We are currently integrating CodeMeter, and I expect it to be ready in a few weeks.

I’ll keep you updated on the progress here.

Thanks again!
