Importing your d20Pro license using Mac OS X

Postby Lord Elderon on Fri Aug 28, 2009 9:49 pm

Hi Joker here...

J/K, Nick here with a message from one of our users. I would like to thank Adam (not sure if he wants me putting his last name out there) for handling this for us and passing it on to you. Adam wrote and added some screen shots to assist in Mac use. I hope this helps...

These instructions are intended to assist you in finding the correct place to put your license file.

A Mac OS X program is normally contained in a Package Icon (figure 1). This Package is the icon you would place in your applications folder, or double click to launch the program, but with a little manipulation you can gain access to the contents of this package and manipulate the files within. This is what's required to add your license file to D20 Pro 2.0 for Mac. This is also useful for importing your maps, and other resource files into the program.

First you want to Control+Click on the Package Icon (figure 2). You will select 'Show Package Contents' off the pop-up menu. Once you have done this, you should be presented with a series of folders and files that are familiar to anyone who has used the Windows version or Version 1 of this program.

What's that? You're NOT familiar with those? Well then, please continue. Within these folders you will find the following (figure 3) Inside the folder 'Resources' there is a folder 'Java' within that folder is another folder called 'licenses' and that's where you want to put your license. Pretty simple right?

This method is now outdated, as you now download your license from our servers.

Hi all

just a little question. I'm about to take a GM license with few player tokens as soon as the next version will released and i would like to know if the license validation is the same than in the demo mode. It seems to me d20 connect to mindgene's servers to check the license. It's not a problem but what's happen if the servers are down (temporarly or, why not, for ever if you stop to maintain it) ? Could we play anyway ?

Yes, the connection to validate license only occurs for the trial version. This is only to enforce the time limited nature of the trial. Once you've purchased your own license you won't have to worry about connection to our servers (or them being down because I spilled beer on them :? /obscure).
