Will MB7std run under windows on parallels or bootcamp & will the dongle work?

I am soon to retire my last PPC machine which has MotionBuilder 7std installed. A while back autodesk supplied me with a dongle to allow tranfer to other workstations.

Thanks

Motion Builder 7.5 extension 2 runs on a intel mac. Pretty well actually.

Yes 7.5 is UB unfortunately the price hike from the (discontinued) standard version is a bit much for my use. I was rather hoping that I could squeeze a bit more life out of the standard version before migrating to a competing product.

Thanks

I'm in the same ship...

Planning on upgading my mac to Intel.. in this few months and wondering if my MotionBuilder Standard 7 license will work on the new intel iMac ( under Rosetta)

I don't have a dongle though....

Don't use MB that much so the cost for upgrading is not really on the budget...
(I bought mine from Alias..)

Anybody has MB 7 working on an Intel mac...?

thanks!

Thanks skritter:

Anything I should be aware of, bugs and such...?

5.5 Was Kaydara's version still.. right?

Hope I don't have problems with Autodesk on issuing another license when I switch machines...

I remember there was a big hassle after they bought Alias about this issue.. but don't remember what was resolved... or if in practice it will be easy... :)

good luck,

fjv
