"License denies this action" when multiple instances open

Post by rjp2525 »

When converting GTA 4 to GTA 5, the collision information on the original model would be much easier to access if we could open two instances of ZM3 at once. It takes much longer when you have to open and edit the converting model, close it and import the original, write down all the values, close it and reopen the other one. It'd also be convenient if we wanted to work on a few different models without having to close out of the others and lose the history in case an undo is needed.

Could this be fixed in a future update or is there a reason why this isn't allowed?

This is a file access violation on license storage file. It can't be fixed as second instance tries to modify the file (software component) that is loaded and running in first instance.

You can copy ZModeler into a different folder and start two instances from different folders.
