Its been a while since my days of working for colleges.Īutodesk has many applications with varying licenses, but there no point in comparing as if they were the same there would be no need to learn Houdiini The non-com edition I think i made to be accessible and I’ve encountered very little commercial software that allows only a forum account to get something so functional, (endorphin being another of the few).ĬG is my job, hobby, and a general interest, and I personally use the non-com ver myself for fun at home although when on the clock have access to a commercial license. Hope that help and is fairly accurate, if any of the SESI guys are online and want to correct me -please do. Its actually quite generous since you can renew the license forever, remove the watermark and render hd for $100, and unlike most “trial”/noncom/“lite” version is hardly crippled and place the water mark small in the corner instead of full frame or tiling it like birthday wrapping paper. Universities would presumably have to go through far more formailities to set up educational versions. So a full blown master license-like feature set is provided for the intent of learning/exploration and non-profit use but as a closed system to some degree allowing things in but not out, this makes sence. The reasons for this preesumably is that anyone can get a noncom license with almost no effort and therefore these limitation keep commercial projects from using it to export to commercial applications or rendering it full res. Noncom/starving artist noncom is intended for the individual and have a FEW limitations which to my knowledge are:Ĭannot export FBX (but can import), cannot save hips (saves hipncs, but can open hips ok), have limited resolution on rops, and cannot work with 3rd party render engines ie renderman, mray etc… and lastly place a smaller than most watermark in the lowe-right. Im not %100 sure what you are looking at in the pdf, but unless something has changed, the general summery and I think source of your confisuin is…Įducational licenses are more or less Master Licenses provided to universities and are unwatermarked, just display some “educational” splash screen message and of course are for noncom educational use- but do not have the limitations and can still open/save hip files.
