PTC Creo 3.0 now available for FIRST teams

[Gary Dillard]

Does anyone know if you need an internet connection to access the license to run Creo? It seems like I get occasional messages regarding losing the floating license if I haven't connected to the wifi yet when I fire it up at our build facility, but I don't think it ever stopped it from loading or running. We've got some redesign work to do at the regional and it would be nice to have access to our model, but we likely won't be able to access the internet at the venue.

The internet connection is only required for the licensing process. Once you have successfully installed the licensing, you do not need an active internet connection to run the software.

The splash screen contains internet content, but when not available it will use a local page instead. You should be fine working with Creo while offline.
