which is very convenient for the users. Well... is not that convenient really, like come on guys..
it IS more convenient than the old system. The old challenge response/keyfile system was harder to understand than this one. Furthermore its more convinient that you NOW can manage your activations yourself. You can deactivate machines yourself. With the old system we had tons of emails where we manually had to reset them. This meant a lot waiting time for the users. Regarding the 3 months activation: this will be very easy over VMAN, I dont get how someone can have a "problem" with this. 1 click all 90(!) days,(maybe 0 clicks when we make the check automatic) is really nothing what hinders you. Its better than a permanent internet connection, which was on the table, too, or a mandatory dongle. And we are in business for 20 (!) years, do you think we disappear tomorrow in the night and leave all your activations? God what paranoid people here are. :scared:
You're Wrong, with all respect:
The old challenge response/keyfile system was harder to understand than this one.
No it doesn't seems so, you see, if teilo doesn't do mention of this new procedures about "verification each 3 months" probably no one would be even aware about any of this, not even newcomers without a single idea about any of this. They would realize later after the Cash$€£ was spent...

Still Dependency of the Company anyways, yes now the users can do that, but seriously at this cost... this is not even right or better.

No... You just can't understand? is not about how long vengeance have been in the business, is about the investment people did in this product and hoping the best and now they are in a complete state of dependency asking permission each 3 months for a product they paid for, even many studios don't like to connect some of their pcs/laptops to internet for many reasons and many users.

This new process has messed up all the meaning and the relationship how a business is treating their customers; is not about the users purchase a product and gets his products, but now purchase a product and now have to ask continuous permission to the company in order to use it each 3 months.

I'm sorry this is not ok, you can call me and other people with the concerns paranoids, but there is a very legit reason to feel uncomfortable about these new moves from vengeance.

You guys are wrong and need to change, understand your loyal customers more and be more humble.
what was happening in the last days? What do you know? You dont know any numbers. The vast majority, and its 95% of our customers, are happy and it worked instantly. Thats what happened. You read the 5%, which had problems here. And in some days it will have worked for everyone, we are on it.
Oh please... if those 95% (I don't trust much statistics since even governments all around the world, history and countries manipulates data to make it seems like everything is Ok) are happy is mainly because they are not yet aware about what's going on; perhaps they will realize in 3 months when what is supposed to be their product needs continuous permissions...

I will never trust Vengeance with my purchase dollars again.
I feel you, it would piss me off a lot too, I wouldn't purchase or recommend companies doing stuffs like this neither, is a very bad and terrible move.

im also not for codemeter, another CP on my system.... i would have preferred ilok or elicenser, but wasnt it clear that 1.5 would be required for future xps?
well, how should an preset react if a guitar or analog feature or any other new function has been used? It cant open.
This was always the case. When Synthwave was released, it required 1.3.6, when Future Pop 2 was released it required 1.4.10 etc...

@JunSev
stay on 1.4.10 then

I know some people don't mind this, but I'll pass on this or anything like it. Too intrusive for my blood.

OK, this is driving me nuts .... CodeMeter seems to be playing havoc with my PC so I'm trying to re-install 1.4.10. It installs fine but when opening kicks up a No License found error (I've no idea why 1.5 trashed my old license) :?

Trying to generate a new license via the popup when opening Avenger (and logging in) gives me a 'The system-ID seems to have the wrong format (XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX)' error. If I click the Offline button it shows my System ID which is definitely in the format XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX - any ideas?

Before anybody replies with the usual answers ...
  • No - I'm not, or ever have been, running a cracked version!
  • Use Vman - how? The plugin won't launch because it won't generate a license and Vman is only accessible from within the plugin - the key to the door is locked behind the door!
I just want my old Avenger back until I can figure out the CodeMeter issues ... any help greatly appreciated :hug:

I am a legitimate user, but I gave up, I installed the cracked version of VPS Avenger 1.4.10.

The constant problems with the new licensing system filled my patience. Sorry.

I have a similar problem, I uninstalled and reinstalled Avenger 1.4.10, but it doesn't let me validate the license.
