I thought that was a mistake from Adobe?

As retarded as it sounds, it's pretty much impossible to get an old version legally.
So people who prefer to work on older PS or 3ds Max are screwed unless they already bought them a long time ago.
If you live in US that might be the case. In EU you can resell any software you wish.
In any case I would not use cloud version of Photoshop even if that was free. I must have my software on my hard drive, and that will work consistently without internet.
If not for the fact that nDO needs photoshop, to woek, I would just throw the entire shit out of window, honestly..
What is even more weird in the entire situation, is the fact that I need nDO mainly for generating AO maps from normal 0_o
resell, as in transfer the license and all that stuff?
I did look for used old PS versions some time ago on local ebay equivalent and didn't find anything that looked legit.
Yes. IDK about ebay I never really checked, I just know you can resell any software in EU, assuming you have bought it first. There was afair big case on when Oracle, tried to prevent reselling it's software, and they loose it. Rulling was if you own license, you can do whatever you want with it, withing legal limits of EU.
In EU local law is always above EULA.
Nice, that's good to know.
I personally find the whole creative cloud thing kinda silly however - you get all the other software, but what if all you need is just Photoshop? Are you now paying for software you wont ever use? By the time you pay for a whole year your already paying more than half(this is without the student discount) of what it would cost just to buy the program anyway it seems. What is nice about it though is you do get all the newest features and all the programs... but like I said, what if you just need one program? They don't even give you an option for that or to just buy it straight.
Yes they do:

You can buy any of the programs individually as downloads. The only thing that's changed to my knowledge is they are no longer making retail (physical) copies - the ones on the store shelves now are the last ones, and they have the CC subscription you can do if you don't want to buy a download.
I believe it's even stricter, it's legal for people that own a CS2 license. I guess you could be fine downloading it as an individual but do not use it in a studio if you don't have any documentation showing you own a CS2 license , Adobe belongs to a software group that is very aggressive with lawsuits.
Just update the source image, say your diffuse bake, and presto chango updated in Photoshop before you can say, "Son of a bitch I've been wanting this for years."
Did not know this, you are a good human, thank you
I could have sworn they gave out free keys some time ago though.
Yeah i remember the first news about it and the mistake they made and all that legal jazz coming with it. but i could also swear just a few months ago later last year i read this news again without these requirements.
