Hi
I just bought a Houdini FX and now i have 5 render license but i could not find the way of using it?
I tried hython hrender command in command line but it shows no valid license found message.
Could somebody tell me what is the correct way of using render license?

Thank you

The mantra command uses the "Renderer" license.

e.g. mantra -V3a foo.ifd
the Karma license is used by the karma command or the husk command when the karma delegate is used.

Your Houdini FX license is needed for hython/hrender/hbatch commands unless you purchase separate hengine licenses.

Oh, Its called Renderer license. Thank you jsmack. Its really helpful to me. Now I'm able to render in different machines using renderer license. By the way up to how many machines can be used if I purchase hengine licenses to use hython/hrender/hbatch commands?
Indie license seems can be used up to 3 but i see no mention about FX license.

Unlimited, but it's one license per machine.
