So today the same thing 'you must activate (again!)' but with that nasty in- red you shall bend over after December. I thought about using a cracked version to keep the files on MY computer instead of their cloud. Hilariously my anti virus program found and nixed the keycracker every time it opened. It would appear and in the time it took to read the file name it would vaporize it and my antiV would pop up a window to inform me of a 'save'. Kcress - RE: Draftsight 2019 - no longer Free SBaugh (Mechanical) I'm glad to hear there are some alternatives. I hope nanoCAD doesn't pull the same trick on us. (Free for hobbyists or companies doing less than x$ business.) It's also twice the price of DraftSight.Īs for DraftSight ransoming our drawings, is that really true? Can't we store them on our hardware and access them with any DFX or DWG tool? This is not like Fusion360 where you really are ransomed except they have a really generous licencing agreement. ![]() I'd probably go with DraftSight except their licensing sucks for me. ![]() I work on drawings at home and at the office and they're allowing only one CPU period. So that would mean I'd have to buy 2 copies even though only one would ever be running at a time. Kcress - RE: Draftsight 2019 - no longer Free itsmoked (Electrical) 21 Jul 19 03:30 What the hell's wrong with them? How hard is it to keep track of how many copies of a license are running on the planet? NanoCAD does offer floating licences except they demand the floaters be on the same network. In a fit of frustration with some of Draftsight's own idiocy I downloaded the trial form of ACAD Lite. Geez what a difference! I haven't used Autocad in about 8 years and I was instantly back on track getting the job done in about a third of the time and with NO frustration. Now I'm faced with contemplating a subscription to ACAD LT. "Summer sale", whatever the hell that means, is $800 for a 3 year term. I can probably rationalize that over $180 for, say, NanoCad with it's horrid licensing limits(*). (*) All other CAD packages seem to require you run "server" software to share the license on other hardware and uselessly the computers must all share the same network. This is completely incompatible with the premise of working on my office computer OR my home laptop. This means I have to buy two seats to do my normal one-individual CAD. This makes all the cheap packages considerably more expensive than Autocad itself.Īutocad's single license runs on anything you have anywhere you have it. It simply "phone's home" to check out 'one user'. It runs on web-browser tech and so can even run on the likes of a cellphone. If you’re seeing the ‘Activation Transaction Failed: Activation Count Exceeded’ error message, your SOLIDWORKS license is already activated elsewhere and could have been caused by any of the following: The license transfer and activation process is pretty straightforward, but there are the odd occasions where it fails and SOLIDWORKS displays the following error message: SOLIDWORKS Activation Transaction Failed: Activation Count Exceeded If you cloud-ize your drawing storage you can Acad edit your drawings anywhere any time.Many SOLIDWORKS users transfer their license between computers to allow them to work from home or another location in onsite etc. ![]() SOLIDWORKS is still activated on another PC.You’ve recently changed hardware or Operating System on your PC.The transfer didn’t complete properly the last time you attempted it.If you suspect your license is in use elsewhere: Log onto the machine where you think the license is and deactivate the software. To do this go to Help > Deactivate License. If you are unsure where your license is currently activated, you can check any machine use by going to Help > About SOLIDWORKS. This will show you the serial number in use on that machine. If you’ve changed some Hardware on your PC: Draftsight 2016 activation serial number# Draftsight 2016 activation serial number#.
