Andrew Pollock Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Twinmotion has announced that a perpetual license will be free to all VW users. When I went to follow through with claiming the license, the site asked for a code. I don't know what that code might be. I tried my VW 2022 License # but that didn't work. Does anybody have any thoughts? Quote Link to comment
bjoerka Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) i got a code inside the serviceselect portal. but that is worth for 6 month... not perpetual Edited September 23, 2021 by bjoerka Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Hmmh, I got a license for 2020.x just because downloading and trying 2019.x Beta. Would have gotten another License for being a Bricscad user. But can't remember if there was a code at all. If there is a code for Service Select Users, I would try that. Could be that Epic will offer you a free license after these 6 months. Quote Link to comment

Don't delay—you must redeem your code by March 31, 2022! 2 Quote Link to comment
Tom Klaber Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Do we get a copy per license we own? How do we get the additional codes for the other people in our office? Quote Link to comment
line-weight Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I managed to get this - but had to contact my local VW agent to re-issue an activation email for my VSS account (or something?) when it didn't work to start with. The Twinmotion licence then seems to exist somehow, even if there is no direct record of it when I look at my Epic Games (ie twinmotion) account which until recently I was just using to run a trial version of TM. Seeing as there seem to be various aspects of the VW<>TM export process that are still not working properly, it seems a little academic for the time being anyway. Quote Link to comment
Tom Klaber Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 The direct link button in Twinmotion does not work on Windows- anybody else having this. Looking to test - but can not even get past the first step. Quote Link to comment

This got me stuck for a while too. 1 Quote Link to comment

Vectorworks, Inc Employee Dave Donley Posted September 28, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted September 28, 2021 Thanks for the help @line-weight The demo video made it look like export button had to be pressed first and it doesn't. We have the file export mode button to match other CAD app Datasmith tools, and it seems to be confusing. 1 Quote Link to comment
MHBrown Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Can anyone explain exactly how to get this perpetual license? I was only able to download a Trial perpetual license--which I think anyone can do. This is very confusing and the EPIC website where I assume one should download it sort of leaves you hanging. Has anyone actually succeeded in this and, if so, could you please give step-by-step as to what you did? Huge thanks for any advise on this.

MHBrown 2019 MB Pro 16", i9 Intel, 32GB RAM, 8GB GPU, OS Catalina I just went to my customer portal on service select and saw the license number there. I believe it’s a link that takes you to the epic games installer IIRC. It was easy. Quote Link to comment
MHBrown Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Thank you, Jeff, but not everyone has Service Select. I don't personally have any need for it. Can anyone else who does not pay for the Service Select option help me out? Thanks, MHBrown Quote Link to comment
rDesign Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 @MHBrown I believe that all licensed Vw Users have a Vw Customer Portal page, whether or not you have a Service Select subscription. Click the link towards the bottom of this Twinmotion | Vectorworks promotion page, under the section labeled ‘Get your Free License Today’. There are instructions on how to get your TM license there. HTH. https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/twinmotion/vectorworks Quote Link to comment

Maybe you can get someone to come to your site to do it for you since it is proving so difficult 😉 1 Quote Link to comment
Joe Golden ENT Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Does this work for the 2022 release that just came out? Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Neil Barman Posted January 29, 2022 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 29, 2022 In case anyone arrives at this thread and is needing some clarification on how to get the TwinMotion promo code and redeem it, I’ve listed the steps in this Kbase article: 2 Quote Link to comment
