max 5 when?
 

Does anyone know when they are sending the animating softwares or do they want us to use the demo version they sent?

I beleive that they've already sent the animating software out. Last I checked, our team had the full versions of Inventor as well as 3DS Max.
Did you get the demo software by itself or was it in one of the packages?

You have to register one copy online to get it out of demo mode. I think you can set up a network to use only one license, but I haven't tried it yet.

if you haven't recieved it yet...it could be because your team didn't send in the registration cheque ahead of time and paid at the kickoff (bad idea) and Autodesk sends out the software after the money is recieved.
