This page guides users who have opted for the Solo Chaos License or the Chaos Enscape 4.1 Fixed license.



What are Solo and Fixed Licenses


Solo and Fixed Licenses can be used by one user on one device. They are recommended for individuals and small teams. Chaos Licensing is the bridge between the Chaos Product and the Chaos Account associated with a given license. No Chaos product can be used without a License.

You can manage your chaos license and account from the my.chaos portal. See how on the My Chaos Portal Guide page.

Corona Activation
If you are activating a Chaos License for Corona, please see the Activating Corona for 3ds Max or Activating Corona for Cinema 4D pages, depending on your integration.


Enscape Activation
When using a Fixed License for Enscape 4.1, follow the step-by-step guide in the Enscape First Steps article. If you are using Enscape 4.0 or older, see the Enscape License Activation article.


Activating the License



Activating your Solo/Fixed License happens during your Chaos product installation. No additional steps are needed.

  • Download your Chaos product(s). Open the installation wizard and follow through with a basic installation setup. For more information on the specifics of the installation, go to the Installation page of your chosen product.

  • After the installation is complete, you will be redirected to the Chaos License Server's Interface. If you are not signed into a Chaos account, go to the Online licensing dropdown menu and select Sign in.


Chaos Interface




  • Enter your Chaos credentials.


You can use your Chaos account credentials or the credentials for an existing Enscape account.

If you have never had a Chaos account, you can create one at this step.

If your account needs to have a license assigned to it - you can contact your account administrator and have them add you to their organization and assign a license to you.


Chaos Single Sign-On Page




You will receive the following message in the Chaos License Interface. This confirms that your license is activated and you can now use your Chaos product freely.



Re-configuring your License Installation


If you have upgraded your Chaos License plan, or if you misconfigured your license settings by mistake, here is how you can re-configure your Chaos product for a different Chaos License plan:

  • One option is to change your Chaos product's license setup. This method does not require re-installation. To change your Chaos product's license setup, see the Changing the Product License Setup page.

  • Alternatively, you can re-install your current Chaos product by running its installation wizard again. At the Licensing step of the installation, you can change your license settings according your Chaos License plan. See the Workflows section for details.
