Licensing
How Cloth neXt and its components are licensed
Cloth neXt is a commercial PolyWorks product. It is made of several components, and each one is covered by its own terms.
| Component | Terms |
|---|---|
| Cloth neXt purchase | Personal or Commercial license sold through Superhive, under the conditions above. |
| Blender add-on code | GNU General Public License, version 3 or later. The source is published on GitHub. |
| PPF Contact Solver | Developed by ST Tech / ZOZO under the Apache License 2.0. Installed separately; not bundled with the add-on. |
| Other components and services | Companion applications and PolyWorks services are covered by their own terms, published with them. |
Buying a license does not limit the GPL. For GPL-covered code you receive, the rights the GPL grants apply regardless of which license you bought.
Questions
Before you buy
Which license do I need?
If you work alone and your Cloth neXt work earns less than $1,000 a year, Personal covers it. For freelance, client or studio production beyond that, choose Commercial.
Can my team share one license?
No. Commercial licenses are per user and cannot be shared, transferred or redistributed within a team or company. Personal licenses can add seats at checkout.
Will it run on my computer?
Cloth neXt needs Blender 5.0 or newer on Windows x64 or Linux x64, with a supported NVIDIA GPU or the CPU backend. See the system requirements.
Is the experimental GAIA Hydrodynamics included?
No. It is research in development and not part of the current release. See GAIA.
Where are invoices and downloads?
In your Superhive account. Superhive processes the purchase.
