Thanks, I will ask if this can be clarified and post back here once I know.

This is an offer to paid users and all paid users were contacted by Samir. I'm not clear what you mean by "not a paid user"?

I would like to clarify, the Effex source code has never been available and Samir said (from his FB page [https://www.facebook.com/Navié-105576809517385/] in Jan): Samir did briefly make the Windows build available free through github but decided to take it down. There is an offer that has gone out to all Effex 2.0+ users, if you haven't received it you can contact our sales: https://insydium.ltd/contact/sales-enquiry/ As soon as we have more news on how we are building on X-Particles + Effex we will announce it through our site and social media. For those that haven't yet seen our latest build I suggest looking at our new Early Access: https://insydium.ltd/support/early-access-programme/ and: Thanks.

I'll bite a little on this one, I can only offer a brief reply... those that attended NAB saw first hand what we've got coming and detailed news will be along in due course. Integration of ExplosiaFX will not disappoint, it is a fantastic and fast system with render support already in the latest Cycles 4D. If you really want to know what INSYDIUM has coming, sign up to our newsletter, like our FB or follow us on twitter. You clearly missed that we announced during NAB that the massive XP4 is coming Q4 2017.

It is the same as X-Particles ; if the offline expires (it shows in the Console/About how long it has) it will need an internet connection to validate again, then it can go offline. We do allow customers to contact us for extensions of the offline where required, so if you are travelling and need up to 6 months offline we can change your license offline period (before it goes offline though, once offline, it is fixed until the next online connection).

It is a completely new site and the accounts have not been transferred over. The account was only for accessing the downloads and video manual, we've opened these for everyone to access as it simplifies it for customers.

Yes, I've added it to the Downloads. HTH.

We have two collections of Cycles 4D and X-Particles scenes from the reel in the downloads (including the lava): http://insydium.uk/downloads/ and if you want to see all about Cycles 4D and X-Particles the video manuals are now available for everyone to view: http://insydium.uk/video-manual/ HTH.

You may also find the Roadmap for Cycles interesting, they are pretty ambitious: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Source/Render/Cycles/Roadmap

You can always sign up to our newsletter to be kept informed :) http://3.x-particles.com/newsletter/ We'll be releasing more information about Cycles 4D over the next few weeks.
