Matchmover 2012 Standalone with Maya 2012 Standalone - Error [-1.359.2]

When you launch Matchmover 2012 Standalone, you may get this error:

A valid license could not be obtained by the network license manager.

If you are still unable to access a license, contact your system administrator.

Error [-1.359.2]

To solve this problem, you will need to copy the License.env file from the Maya application folder into the Matchmover application folder.  This file needs to include the line:

MAYA_LICENSE_METHOD = Standalone

If you are running on a Mac:

1. Applications > Autodesk > Maya2012 > right click on Maya and select ‘Show package contents’ > Contents > Copy License.env.
2. Applications > Autodesk > MatchMover2012 > right click on Matchmover2012 and select ‘Show Package Contents’ > Contents > Paste the License.env.

If you are running on Windows:

1. C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2012/bin > Copy License.env.
2. C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Matchmover2012 > Paste the License.env.

Thanks to David Lau for passing this on.
