Hi Nachiket,

please check whether you license contains the module Advanced Rendering Extension 2 (code 283). This module is not included in basic Creo license.

Hi Nachiket,

click File > Help > System Information to open INFORMATION WINDOW.

Then look for Configured Option Modules section. In it you can see all modules available in your Creo session.

Also you can locate license.dat file on your license server, that runs FLEXnet license manager. In this file all licenses you own are available.

Usually when you don't have the "Photolux" license, you should not be able to create HDRI lighting.

But it may happen, if you use a scene that has been created with Photolux, that you get this warning, because your scene saved with the model contains functions the simple "Photorender" render cannot use.

If you have not purchased the Photolux render, you probably have to use different scene or rework the scenes.
