VEGAS Pro 16 - Recovering BCC10 effects after VEGAS Pro 16 installatio

Together with the VEGAS Pro 16 installation you receive 1 or 2 BCC11 units for free.

If you already own a BCC10 license, the installation of these units remove all BCC10 effects and leaves you withthe installed BCC11 effects.

I found following trick to get the BCC10 effects that are not included in the BBCC11 units I installed back:

At the end of the BCC 11 unit installation you are asked if all unlicensed effects should be removed. Answer "YES" to this question. The result is that only the licensed BCC 11 effects are shown in Vegas Pro.

Install all new BCC 11 units you have. (Key and Blend Unit, Lights Unit, .. ).

Make sure that you have activated all BCC 11 units you have and that you said "YES" to the question "Delete all unlicensed effects" at the end.

Now reinstall BCC10.

After this process I had all new effects from BCC11 and all old effects from BCC10 in my VEGAS 16 effects list.

I hope this helps.

Thanks, I just tried it, but I was not able to have both the 10 and 11 versions. With your method I started off with 11 activated ones, and delete all unlicensed effects, next run BCC10 installer, but that did not add anything, only after running BCC10 installer a second time, that added all the effects, not just one, but these effects were 11 effects with "trial", obviously my 10 license did not stick. I give up on this, I just paid the 99 for the upgrade sapphire render to 11 (as I liked this one), and took my losses for BCC 3d objects.

Hallo Bitman,

maybe the difference was, that my BCC10 suite was licensed and correctly running BEFORE I installed the BCC11 units coming with VEGAS 16.

After I reinstalled BCC10 all BCC10 effects that were licensed before were correctly licensed after the installation again.

Just an update: I contacted Boris for a refund on the sapphire render upgrade as some other member on this forum in the same situation as me got a free upgrade for the render unit. And guess what, I got a refund for the upgrade and a new license.
