Hello all,
    I am an animation student currently working on an individual investigation project of using SGI for animation. I'm trying to ink and paint hand-drawn animation on my Indy workstation. Does anybody have a copy of Digital Video SRI Toonz, or Softimage Toonz? It would be extremely helpful. I can't find it anywhere on the internet. I'm totally new to SGI and all these networks. Call me a noob if you will.

I don't know if they still sell it but the people running toonz.com still had webpages describing the IRIX version as recently as 4 days ago. Their website looks to be down as of the moment...

I've got the installation package, however the license isn't there, and what I've found online doesn't seem to be working right.. any flexlm gurus care to drop a message to investigate?

I now have this software up and running on my SGI 320 thanks to chulofiasco!



I will mess around with it in IRIX later!

Wait a sec... you were able to crack the license and get the software up and running? That's awesome. Will it work in IRIX? Also... Where can I download this? I haven't seen a link on here...

I have it fully up and running on my SGI 320, but haven't been able to get it up and running in IRIX as yet. 

Send chulofiasco a PM regarding this software.

I hope we can get it up and running in IRIX one day, but it definitely pays to have a machine such as an SGI 320 at your disposal in situations such as this. I would recommend that everyone here have one in their collection.

Ok... I'll do that. He said that the software worked but he did not have a license for it. Were you able to crack that license? If so, then there shouldn't be anything stopping it from running in IRIX.

There is a fix for it, but it’s a .exe file. Once executed, the fix replaces all of the .exe files for the software and creates a license file that you still have to point the software to, as this is not done automatically.

Therefore, more than a license file is required to get it up and running.

What I did was I tried the license file created on the 320 on my IRIX machine and it didn’t want to accept the license file, even though it shows “anyhostid” in the license file.

I’m sure that this is the right path to take to get it up and running, but more is required, it seems.

This is what I expected already. I had a quick look at that license file and it's got SIGN=... statements with 120 sign chars which means they're using FLEXlm CRO ECC cryptography with 239bit keys. In general this problem is "solved" by creating your own key pair, patching the original public key in the binaries with your own and building a keygen with your own private key.

If you don't patch the public key in the IRIX binaries, the license files generated by the keygen will not be accepted.

NB: at the basis of those 239bit keys are two 32bit seed numbers chosen by the customer, so you effectively only have a 2^64 problem, not 2^239. But you can't offload this to hashcat on a cluster of GPUs so it *will* take CPU time. Lots of it.

Have you toggled around with this yet? I don't know how to do this myself, but it seems like you have an idea of how to get around the keygen problem.
