Where do I get program files folder for Mac?

I have a dual G5 here at the studio that I'd love to incorporate into my screamernet, but I only have PC lightwave licences. Where can I get the program files to be able to launch LWSN on the Mac?

From your program CD? I think since 7.5 or so the CDs have been dual OS. You could also download the latets upgrade with a valid serial, that ought to work as well unless NT check your serial for the platform (which doesn't really make sense since USB dongles are dual dongles anyhow).

Unfortunately my 8.3 licenses are VT4.5's with full LW so I don't have the standalone program CD. I have another standalone seat but it's still a 7.5 with a parallel dongle. I haven't really gotten to upgrade that seat because I don't need that many seats hehehe

Hi cholo,
in this case downloading the update for the Mac should do it. I'm not sure if this is o.k. with your VTNT license...

I can and have moved my programs folder to several rendering servers across my network from the VT version of LW and they work as render slaves perfectly, no need for a VT on each render node. The only trick is getting that folder for Mac since all I can download is the VT 4.5 update, not the LW update.
