Problem with license

[entopia]

Hello, just tried to install the sdk in my pc. I have managed to install everything , however it crashes in the license. I have an advaneced licence provided by ucl, but the system seems to crash once i use CityEngAdv. It works only with CityEngAdvFX, however it results in the following error: [2014-Jan-13 15:55:08.893139] [warning] failed to load or register extensions from 'C:\Program Files\Esri\esri-cityengine-sdk-win64\examples\prt4cmd\install\lib\VueExport.dll' due to exception: error while loading function 'registerExtensionFactories': The specified procedure could not be found.

and later....

hello and thanks for being an early adopter of the brand-new CityEngine SDK ;-)

a few comments to your report:

• we just pushed an update to the README.md file regarding the definition of CityEngAdv and CityEngAdvFx (there has been a mixup in the description).
• you can safely ignore the warning about VueExport.dll
• the crash you see is most most probably not license-related, it looks like the path to your rule file inside the rule package cannot be resolved.

please post the full command your are using to run the example.

Thank you for your immediate response: i am running this: bin\prt4cmd -f CityEngAdvFx -l 3 -p data/candler.02.rpk -a ruleFile:string=bin/candler.01.cgb -a startRule:string=Default$Lot -e com.esri.prt.codecs.OBJEncoder -z baseName:string=myhouse -g data/candler_lot.obj

and i am getting this:
