How do I activate my SpeedTree Floating license?

Andres
  • Updated

 Symptoms

  • On the client machine, the SpeedTree license shows up on trial mode.
  • I have not been able to set up the license on my server.

Cause

You have received your license but are unable to set up the server or client with it.

Resolution

Follow the steps below to correctly install and activate your SpeedTree license.

Note: Before proceeding with the steps, ensure you have received the necessary license file (.lic) and configuration file from the SpeedTree team. If you have not received these files, please contact the SpeedTree Customer Experience team at licensing@speedtree.com.

For more detailed instructions, refer to our comprehensive Floating Licenses guide at

 https://docs.unity3d.com/speedtree-modeler/manual/licensing-guide.html.

Installation Steps

  1. Download the RLM Admin Bundle 
    Visit the Reprise Software site and download the desired RLM License Administration Bundle for your server platform.
  2. Install the Bundle 
    Install the downloaded bundle on the machine designated to act as your license server.

  3. License File Deployment
    You should have received two files from the SpeedTree licensing team: a license file (e.g., customer.lic), and a configuration file (e.g., idvinc.set). Copy both files to the RLM installation folder on your server machine.

    Note: If you do not have the configuration file, you can download it as an attachment file at the bottom of this article. 

  4. RLM Server Activation
    - Run the RLM executable (rlm.exe) from the RLM folder. 
    - Ensure that the startup dialog indicates the use of the provided .lic file.
  5. Web-Based Administration Panel
    - Open a web browser and navigate to the server machine to the following URL:  http://localhost:5054 
    - Log in with the default user and password:

    user: admin
    password: admin

    Note: Change the default password to your own to avoid issues with RLM.

    Then, use this panel to check the status of your license server, view active licenses, and perform any license management tasks.

 

 Client Machine Configuration


On each client machine running the SpeedTree Modeler, configure access to the floating license using one of the following methods:

  1. File Copy Method
    Copy the .lic license file to the same directory as the SpeedTree Modeler executable
  2. Manual Entry Method
    - Open the license file to edit it.
    - Open the SpeedTree modeler > Help > Licensing info.
    - Copy the first line of the license text into the "License" text box and click on apply for it to activate.

 

Verification

Launch the SpeedTree Modeler on the client machine. To confirm that the license activation is successful, go to the Modeler and click on Help > licensing info to ensure the license is active.
