Creator Free

With the introduction of projection study and other similar functionalities we realized we needed to change our licensing a (tiny) bit.

So today, we are introducing Creator Free. It is a new default license which replaces Creator Trial and is used when there are no other LightAct licenses available.

Features of Creator Free

  • All LightAct's features
  • Ability to save your work and continue later
  • Unlimited number of outputs and inputs
  • The only limitation is that all the outputs are watermarked

This means, you can use this license to work on your project without having to pay anything up until you need to remove the watermarks.

And even then, you have several exciting options: Weekly, Yearly or Perpetual licenses depending on whether you are doing a short-term live event or a fixed installations.

LightAct 3.7.0 Preview is Available!

After many months of hard work, we are thrilled to be able to release LightAct 3.7.0 to a select number of users. 

It has been a long journey, but a very fulfilling one. We believe LightAct 3.7.0 includes all the features we (and you, our users) identified as missing in the last few projects LightAct was involved with.

A particular focus of this release is the integration with Unreal Engine which took a giant leap forward. Read more about it on a dedicated page below.

We expect to iterate quickly through several versions in the next few weeks, which means a publicly released version of LightAct 3.7.0 should be released in a month or two.
