Installation Guide
To install, use the installation utility on the CD-ROM. After installing, open Layout, and then open the "Options" panel. Switch to the "General Options" tab, and click "Add Plug-ins". Locate the Grime plugin in the plugins/layout folder and add grime.p That's it!
Activation
If you used the Electronic Registration option
when you installed Grime, then your product is
already registered and activated and you can disregard
the following. To use Grime beyond the initial two
week limit, product activation is required. This process
will also register your product with Dynamic Realities so
we can keep you up to date with the latest information on
upgrades, new versions, and new products.
The activation process is started by running the
activation utility, 'ACTIVATOR.BAT', located on the
Grime CD. First, make sure you are NOT running
LightWave or have the plug-in file open in any way. The
utility will instruct you what to do. After contacting
Dynamic Realities with the serial number, pre-activation
code, and other information, an activation code will be
returned that must be entered into the activation
utility. Once the plug-in has been activated, Grime
may be used uninterrupted.
If you ever change LightWave hardware keys, Dynamic
Realities must be contacted to obtain a new activation
code. You will need to modify the activation status of
the Grime plug-in. This can be done from the
activation utility by modifying an existing user. If you
need to run Grime and cannot wait for the activation
process, you may reinstall it with the two week
limitation and re-activate within that time period.
