Not so much a wish as a suggestion; Licensing structures


propstuff

Question

I'd had a good year when VW10 came out and I was able to upgrade to the Industry Series with RW on the basis that the whole series was not much more than any 2, and that each had bits that I could use.

If it were not for this 1 good year I couldn't justify the cost, but I still would have liked those various bits! I'm guessing that many people would be in the same position. A good example is the Model View tool in Architect.

I imagine that many people who don't want or need most of the Architect specialised tools would very much like the ability to display multiple dynamically linked rendered views of their job on one layer.

Now I know that this is contentious, would be a logistical nightmare and fraught with difficulties, but.............. how about........

Breaking the various specialised bits and pieces into smaller Modules and making them available for purchase separately? (in the same way that individuals sell plug-ins that they have written in Vector Depot)

Then Architects could purchase the set of Metric 3D nuts and bolts from Mechanical, someone with base VW/RW could get the Sun Studies tool from Architect, people with RW could add radiosity etc, etc etc.

All NNA would have to do is work out a nice simple licensing and download structure. {:-O

Hey, what about a Mix'n'Match Industry release? For my $2000 (or whatever) I'll have 1 of those, and 1 of those, and 1 of those and...... just like going to the candy store.

Simple huh?

:-)

Seasons greetings everyone,

N.

That would work so well.

Even better if you could buy the base package and

also recieve at the same time an expiring trail of each of packs.

The best thing is that useful tools will be well supported, and the money will be there for their improvement. The pricing over time will reflect usefulness/userbase.

This will make room from 3rd party packs.

As well, as imporvements for localization.
