    If anyone cares, the Hexwars key works for all, just change the names.
    Yes, works for system 1 and 100.
    They are poly, but SHs sounds better, maybe cpus limit?
    Hail Hexwars!

    Never could get the system 100 to work changing key file name but I'm on PC and that tweak didn't work with the R2R key.

    Hi STATIK,

    First, theses are the only updates available @ http://www.roland.com/aira/softwaresynthesizers/

    SH-101 v103
    SH-2 v102
    PROMARS v101
    SYSTEM-1 v100
    SYSTEM-100 v100

    (Any link to the new updates you're talking about?)

    Secondly, these (old) updates doesn't even work on PC with the old Hexwars' key files which was released just before R2R's ones, even after changing the names.
    Here is what Hexwars wrote himself on the nfo's of his latest releases (which includes his new keygen for mac) :

    Roland.Plug-Out.SH-101.v1.0.3.MacOSX.Incl.Keygen-HEXWARS

    Old keygen doesn't work anymore, now the activator check machineID and the license is tied to specific computer.
    @ Roland: Nice try :P


    Since the licenses are now tied to the computer, old licenses are useless and, of course, his new keygen (for mac only) will not generate a valid key file for PC if we run it on a mac.
    So would you please tell us from which release do you get a working key file and the exact procedure to follow for PC users?

    Thanks in advance.

    the updates are in the contentstore, the ones you can download as trials havent been updated yet.

    and tbh i actually did buy them legitimately only know that others have done it this way and that it worked and that some guy at roland will have his head chopped off

    Okay, but these "others" are PC or Mac users? And which key they've used (from which release?).

    EDIT:
    I think I found the trick on... another place, but it works only for Mac users and with key files generated by the latest Hexwars' keygen dated from 29-05-2015:

    "Just download the trial from the roland site, run it once and it will create a.xml file in library/roland/activator/ choose the plug in directory (system100 in this case) and then run the keygen. the keygen will dump an xml file to the desktop, copy this to the system 100 library activator folder and rename into the xml file already there. Bob is your proverbial! All of the synths (Promars, sh101, sh2, system 1 and system 100 work this way) and run fine in logic 10.2 and live 9.2 and OS X 10.10."

    A way to go for PC user may be to run the keygen via Hackintosh...

    Then would you be so kind to help us and ask which key they've used (from which release)?
    This will be really helpful for PC users.
    If you prefer, you can PM me the info's so I will make a post at AZ with the current available updates and working key files.
    Thanks in advance for your support to the community.

    This how I got System 100 working on OSX 10.9.5.

    1. Rename PG-SH101.xml to PG-SYS100.xml
    2. Copy PG-SYS100.xml to /Library/Application Support/Roland/Activator/PG-SYS100/PG-SYS100.xml (replace existing file)

    they should come up with a JP emulation instead of these cpu wasting plugins.
    did somebody here actual use(d) them?

    I think that will be hard to release, if they release will be a low consuming CPU since it have to work with system1 hardware.
    Meanwhile we have Sunrizer, dont you like it?

    Thanks guys for the info, but since Statik said:
    I'm asking how PC users can proceed. How can we generate a key file with the latest Hexwars' keygen on a PC?
    And we can't use a generated key on a Mac since "... the activator check machineID and the license is tied to specific computer."
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    yup, used all of them, cpu hogging only used to happen with the system-1 plug, but they seem to have fixed that. for me this never was a problem tho, they do sound really really good, one reason for this is that instead of the normal 128 steps on knobs they have 256 steps. apart from that their ACB technology is really amazing

    i´m pretty sure you are complettly wrong , those "Regged" R2R releases licenses does not work anymore with newer Plugout updates . Roland updated the license protection a while ago and there was no update release by R2R .
