EVS Floating or Enterprise License Client Installation

Earth Volumetric Studio is available only as download from https://client.ctech.com/

Each user requires:

  • Installation of the latest version of Earth Volumetric Studio available from the download site
  • Installation of the latest version of Earth Volumetric Studio Sample Projects
  • Hostname or IP Access of the computer running the C Tech Universal License Server (with C Tech’s USB key attached).
    • THIS REPLACES “localhost” IN THE IMAGES BELOW unless you are installing a Floating or Enterprise license on your local computer (includes laptops), in which case the C Tech Universal License Server must be installed locally and configured as shown below.
Warning

Installation requires Administrator rights.

Run each executable and follow the instructions to set your preferred install folder and options.

With all license types, the first step of client setup (after EVS software installation) is to set up the proper license type in the C Tech License Manager. The C Tech License Manager has many additional functions discussed in this topic.

Below are the correct options for a Floating (USB Dongle) License.
