CGTalk - Shave & Haircut

This is a bit of a blast from the past but I have a job that needs some grass in it. I am using C4D 9.6 and I still have Joe Alter's shave and a haircut plugin which I have installed.

Problem is it keeps rejecting the serial number... and it is a legitmate one! I can render stuff but I cannot edit the hair in the external Shave.exe, although I can actually launch this app.

I know there is the new version of C4D out there with the new Hair Module but I don't really want to go upgrading my software just yet since it would be the cost of the job.

So has anyone else out there had any joy with this plugin? Or indeed does the exisiting hair module work with C4D 9.6?

AFAIR that only works under XL7, R8, maybe R9.0 but nothing later as hair came in at 9.5.

I keep my r8.5 installation intact, just for running all my old plugins, like Shave, or any plug that has no UB version.

Joe Alter has no interest in supporting his software since Maxon came out with it's own hair module. I'm not happy with the situation but I can understand his point of view.
