Due to Autodesk’s adoption of .NET8 architecture in their 2025 release, we have had to change to a new licensing system developed by Soraco (QLM). We are confident that a transition to the new licensing system will not inconvenience customers. A new customer portal is available for customers to manage their V25 licenses.
For computer-based single-user licensing, the procedure is similar to that of previous licensing.
For server-based multi-user licensing, a new server application manager will need to be installed.
Shortly, the new licensing system will enable customers to choose cloud based licensing in addition to the existing options.

One of the exciting new features in the Civil Site Design V26 and Stringer Topo V26 release is the Surface from LAS command. Often LiDAR and point cloud data is saved as a LAS file which previously required interpreting in another software prior to being imported to create a surface. This new command allows you […]
An exciting new tool in Civil Site Design v26 is the Vertical Grading Optimiser which can create vertical design profiles based on the parameters you set. Previously, the vertical best fit design profile was based on matching closely to the terrain (within preset cut/fill depths) and adding vertical curves. Mostly, you would remove these […]
We know parking bays come in all shapes and sizes, and that many of them deserve an independently designed string (with cross sections attached to the string to describe the kerb shape of the parking bay). For those parking/bus or widening bays that can be readily described with cross section edits, we’ve got you covered […]
