Step 1

Convert your old Assembly and Layout & Performance license keys into a Halocline license key by filling out the following form: License migration

 

Step 2

Download Halocline 2023.1: DownloadPortal

 

Step 3

Familiarize yourself with a few technical changes:

  1. Backward compatibility: Halocline 2023.1 is not compatible with old Halocline file formats.
    If you still have Halocline exports saved as files with the file extensions below and you want to continue using them, import these data into Halocline before installing 2023.1. After the successful installation of Halocline 2023.1 you can export this data again in the new file format from Halocline.
    Data affected:  

    • Library items (.boxitem)

    • Shopfloors (.boxfloor)

    • Workareas (.boxarea)

    • Variants: (.boxstation)

    • Recordings (.rec)

  2. Assembly Data: Halocline Assembly data is now stored in a different location. Until Halocline version 2022.4.1, Halocline Assembly data was stored in the Windows user's directory. With Halocline version 2023.1, this data is now stored in the %programdata% directory, which may be visible independently of the logged-in Windows user. When installing 2023.1, existing Halocline assembly data is copied to this new location.

  3. SteamVR: If you are updating from an older Halocline version, and using the HTC Vive, make sure your SteamVR version is up to date. For more information, click here: Which VR hardware is supported? and Update SteamVR

Step 4

Once you have received your license key via e-mail, you are ready to install Halocline 2023.1.
