Treatment procedure:
1. Install
2. Run the RLM executable to place the Solidangle.lic file.
If you already have a running RLM server, simply copy the .lic and .set files into your RLM directory.
and reread/restart your server.
Note. You have two options to tell the Arnold plugin where your RLM server is running:
a) Create an environment variable: Solidangle_LICENSE=5053@localhost (change the port and server if necessary)
b) Use the provided file "solidangle_client.lic". Locate the plugin installation folder for ai.dll on Windows, libai.so on Linux and libai.dylib on OSX and copy the "solidangle_client.lic" file there (change the port and server if necessary).
