That's how programs like 3D Studio Max and Lightwave 3D and Maya, etc.. have cracked versions out there.

That being said, I don't condone cracking software nor do I know how easily it can be done for this software, but to say it's impossible is a misnomer.

I'd rather say to a customer that it's impossible, rather than say it's very hard as that's something they don't really need to know.

Anything's possible, the impossible just takes longer.
