Licensing

Forger introduces both free and subscription licensing options. The subscription version is available as part of a Maxon One subscription or from the iOS AppStore as a single product subscription. This section details each.

Registration

Registration with Maxon is not required when Forger is first used. For subscribers, registration is required to connect your subscription to our systems which will then give you access to more features in the future. Free users are required to register after an initial 14-day grace period.

Free

The free version of Forger is not time-limited, you can use it for as long as you want. This version is intended for users to explore and learn the application at their leisure. The free version is fully functional and contains all the features of the subscription offering. Only professional users will notice the Free version’s limitations, these are:

Note

Files that were saved while a subscription was active can be opened and edited, but cannot be saved in Free mode. This is to allow users to explore and learn from the scenes of others.

Subscription

Forger is available for subscription in two ways, either via the iOS AppStore or as part of a Maxon One subscription. There is no difference in the functionality of Forger for either of these options, registration with Maxon is required for both.

If you do not have an active subscription, the shopping cart in the gallery view will be lit blue. Selecting this will show the available subscription options from the iOS AppStore. Maxon One subscriptions can only be purchased from the Maxon store.

Note:

Maxon One licenses can be used concurrently with Forger and Cinema 4D.
