Hallo, may I install the daily builds using the ApprenticeHD 9.0 licence?
And if yes, do i have to remove actual version (9.0794) of Houdini or can install the newer in the same directory?
Thank you.

You can install the latest builds, yes, but you should allow Houdini to install to it's default directory, which will be unique. You don't have to reinstall the license server, just the main package. If you start building up old versions, you can safely uninstall them without losing the license server.

Cheers,

You're doing exactly what I suggested you *don't* do. Let Houdini install to whatever default directory it gives you. I would just do a full install at this point since you seemed to munged the licensing.

Thank you, i did it and now works. Another question: when Sidefx usually put new version in the direct HD download? Not it is at ver. 9.0.794.

They choose explicitly which version they think might be the most stable and update that more seldom. Please read this for more info: http://odforce.net/wiki/index.php/DownloadingHoudini [odforce.net]
