Question about the NGUI license
« on: March 05, 2014, 05:15:40 AM »
Hello

My name is Tiago Pascoal and i am thinking of buying one license of the NGUI library, I have a question.
I am going to have a new computer in a few weeks, can I buy the license install on the old one and then change the license to another computer? Or do I need a new license?

Thanks
Best regards
Tiago Pascoal

Assuming you're asking about that, NGUI has no hardware/system based authentication so you will be able to work with it normally no matter the change.
However, the license for Unity itself is indeed attached to your PC, so I'd recommend reading up on deactivating it before you change the system.

Once you set up Unity on the new PC, all that would be necessary is to enter the Asset Store from your properly activated Editor and reimport the NGUI package from there (or just to reopen your project).

It's on a "be cool" basis. If you change to different computer, you can transfer it freely, just don't have multiple people use the same license.
