2011.5 has just landed

Post by Hirazi Blue » 07 Oct 2010, 18:47

Can't say anything more, haven't had time to download it yet...

edit: it's listed under "product enhancements"

There seems to be no new entry in my contract (serial & product key). Is this intentional?

I don't think you need any new serial etc. Should just work as is with the 2011 license.

An easier to type URL: http://autodesk.com/subscriptionlogin

2011.5 runs with a 2011 license.

No new serial number, you can use your 2011 serial number.

So, basically, what you're saying is: user error...
Okay, if that's the way it's going to be... :-$

A riveting read: post 5 and 6 of this thread, maybe they are more trustworthy...

I hope it works for you tomorrow. Downloaded here with some hiccups, close to timeout but then resuming. Guess I got lucky...

My first download was corrupt (matchmover cab), second attempt currently looking at 2 hours. Ah well, can understand autodesk servers getting hammered right now. Think I can wait a little longer now that at least I know lagoa will be there when I do finally get it installed :D

Thanks to Chinny, Luceric, Stephen and the rest of the Softiamge team, along with Thiago and Eric too. This release looks great!!!

On a side note: If I have my profile on subscription set to "recieve a boxed shipment," does anyone know when they will start to be shipped? Thanks!

There will be no CDs or boxes shipments of subscription advantage packs: they're download-only versions.

After 9 or 10 download attempts yesterday evening and several new ones again today (one of which broke down at 1.4Gb :)) ) & after it has been implied, this is merely a problem on my side, although previous Autodesk downloads always (more or less) worked the first or second time, I have decided, this really isn’t worth the trouble. Consequently, however, I think it’s best to take some time off from this community.

One more thought, though: from the “fixed” & “known issues” list (I had more than enough time to study) it seems "CUDA acceleration" hasn’t been “fixed”, but isn’t a “known issue” either?
