Updates Server Upgraded to Accommodate More Features

May 23, 2013 by Leave a comment

Over the past few weeks your Dashboard may have prompted you with the message “AV.02.007 cannot connect to updates.archvision.com.” Increased user traffic resulted in connection time outs. To address this we have re-engineered a new server to accommodate the increased traffic, as well as, provide users faster access to downloads. Users should now only experience this error message when their Internet Security product (firewall) is preventing their Dashboard from connecting to ArchVision’s Updates Server. We appreciate your support during the upgrade process.

Error Message AV.02.007

ArchVision Software License Overview

October 11, 2012 by Leave a comment

ArchVision currently offers two annual licenses that give users access to all RPCs and plug-ins for 3ds Max, AutoCAD and Photoshop. The ArchVision Software License Floating (sold for $499/year) is portable and can be hosted on a network server to be shared among multiple users (one user concurrently). We also offer the ArchVision Software License Node-Lock version ($249/year) that enables RPC usage on a single computer. I have created a new video to show an overview of purchasing and activating either of these license types.
