    Hi,

    I've noticed the port used for the account connection is 8034. Is there a way to change that?

    Thank you,

    You're going to have to be way more specific than that, what media are you referring to?

    HAHA yeah sorry, it seems obvious to me since I've been having the problem.

    When I open D20pro, I have to enter a username / password to retrieve my licence. That connection uses the port 8034 apparently... is there a way to make it use another?

    You only need to do that if you are going to be interacting with the Marketplace or retrieving your license. and as to changing the port, not that I am aware of via D20PRO, though it should be possible via your router. why do you ask?

    We intended to use it for lunchtime fun @ work and the port is bloqued. I only need to connect to retrieve my GM license the first time. Oh well, I guess we'll keep using Roll20 @ work and keep D20pro for other games :)

    I am confused.. You only really need to connect to it, if you are buying items in the Marketplace or make license changes. Why not just ask your work IT guy to open the port for you, just long enough to do what you want. or you could install D20PRO on a thumb drive and carry that to work with you. if it's a laptop, just do the license stuff at home. or you could just copy your license from your home PC install and copy it to your work PC (it's just an encrypted file).

    Ah! Copying the license is a great idea! What's the file's name?
    Also once that's done, can I download my stuff from the marketplace @ home and copy them?

    just copy the whole D20PRO install folder from one machine to the other.. you'd normally want to do that any way for your game campaign folder.

    You'll find your licences in MesaMundi / d20Pro / licenses
    File name will be "license_[your account name](d20Pro_Full_2.0.0)"

    But as Kril said, its easy enough just to copy all the files over.

    We try to make the license work cleanly -- as far as changing the admin port that's a problem that we should avoid.

    The downside is that you'll want to do your prep outside the office if you're going to use marketplace content as auth happens thru the same mechanism there too.

    As we get farther along with World Engine we'll be able to deprecate this auth mechanism as we've already built a new method using the same account for World Engine (yay, cross development!)
