I was about to order TSE when it suddenly occurred to me that I should check whether it requires a hardware lock. I didn't even think of asking this about LensFX (I'm so naive — I bought ALL of Gary's routines and just assumed…) and had to quickly cancel my purchase when I found it wouldn't run under my (two machine) network (I've subsequently taken advantage of the new offer that Gary inspired). If I understand the way this thingee (TSE) works, the scripts I write will be called during rendering (if I use anything other than PXP, right?) so I'll be back in the same boat as I was with LensFX if there is a hardware lock for my one master machine but no way to run it on my slave. Anyway, please tell me this isn't the case and that Schieber acted intelligently. Or have I heard so many bad things about them (how things are installed — someone wrote here that they wouldn't buy ANYTHING from these guys) that I should stay away just on general principles and stick to what damage I can do in keyscripting?
