how do I get non royalty bearing mode to work in AE?
I have been trying to get a node working but it seems to not work and is kind of annoying I want to set up a farm and it not even working on one pc is slowing down my progress.
I tried everything on this page:
Automated rendering and network rendering in After Effects (adobe.com)
I cannot get the non-royalty bearing mode to turn on:
"RUN AERENDER IN NON-ROYALTY BEARING MODE
After Effects CS5.5 had to be serialized on render-only machines due to licensing issues. In After Effects CS6 and later, you can now run aerender or use Watch Folder in a non-royalty bearing mode, so serialization not required.
To ensure that After Effects is running in non-royalty bearing mode, place a blank file named ae_render_only_node.txt into the following location:
Install After Effects on the render-only machine.
Mac locations:
/Users/<username>/Documents/
/Users/Shared/Adobe/
Windows locations:

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Adobe"
