Question before purchase: Transfer license from Win to (upcoming) Mac

GMTroll · November 28th, 2011, 02:54 AM

I am fairly set on purchasing HL for use with 4E, Savage Worlds, Cthulhu and Shadowrun. Having one tool that supports all the major games I am playing will be awesome.

I primarily use a Mac but have a Win system for those essential apps that don't work with Wine (not really interested in the VM offerings).

Would I be able to transfer a license from a Win PC to Mac when the Mac version becomes available?

Once the mac version becomes available, we'll be offering free license transfers for people currently using Windows for a limited time. You can check the Mac section of our July newsletter for more details:

Thanks Colen, excellent article that answers all my questions on licensing for Mac.

I think I know the answer to this but:
I have an iMac that I dual boot with Windows and Lion. I have Herolab installed on Windows right now. If I want to use it in Lion and also keep it on Windows that would be considered a separate license even though it's on the same box?

Here's the "How Computers are Identified" portion of the licensing page on our website:

That's what I thought. I figured it made a hash of something. Thanks.
