Simulating with Creo 11.0.0 student license / using license pack

Hi,

 

When I go to the Live Simulation tab in Creo, I'm prompted to check the Floating Licenses in the File>Options menu, because the "license request failed." Is this feature included with the version I'm using?

 

EDIT: After writing the message, I see I got an email titled "PTC License Pack". How do I use the file? When opening it with Creo, I get an error.

 

Thanks,

Max

Hi,

1.) save license file to local disk ... eg. into C:\PTC\mylicense directory

2.) in Notepad ... modify parametric.psf file located in Parametric\bin subdirectory in Creo loadpoint

You have to modify following lines ...

ENV=PTC_D_LICENSE_FILE-=

ENV=CREOPMA_FEATURE_NAME=

 

If you do not know how to do it ... please upload license file and parametric.psf file. I will do modification for you.
