Hello,

Curious about the different licenses and was hoping someone might be able to explain.

I only purchased Indie, but when I go to license manager I see 3 choices:

Houdini-Master-NonCommercial
Houdini-Indie
Render-NonCommercial

Does this mean if I only redeem Houdini-Indie that I could work with a hip file in Indie, but I wont be able to render because I didn't redeem ‘Render-NonCommercial’?

Same likewise for ‘Houdni-Master-NonCommercial’, probably be able to use core features but not special fx shelf tools or something like that?

Thanks

Edit: To be more technically correct, I guess I should say ‘Product-Type’ rather than ‘License Type’

Short answer: You need to redeem all three.

Long answer: one is for rendering, one is for the main software, and Indie denotes what type of Houdini license you bought. You need all three to do anything.
