Silent install for SketchBook Pro from the Autodesk Animation Academy 2010

[Anonymous]

Issue: I have received Autodesk Animation Academy 2010 and have created a admin image for 3dsmax and silent installs for Maya, MotionBuilder and Mudbox for deployment from directions found on the Autodesk website.  Now I would like to find the msiexec command to allow SketchBook Pro to accept the serial number and product key silently.

(for example: msiexec /I SketchBookPro2010.msi ADLMSERIALNUMBER=xxx-xxxxxxxx ADLMPRODUCTKEY=548B1 ADLMSERVERNAME=xyz /qn)

The serial number is not entered through the installer. You can install silently with an msiexec command line such as this:

     - msiexec.exe /i "E:\SketchBookPro_Win32\SketchBookPro2010.msi" /qn /Lv* "SketchBookPro2010-Install.log"

The serial number is entered in the registry under the user in HKCU as a REG_SZ called “SerialNumber” here:

     - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\SketchBook Pro\4.0

You can pre populate the serial number in the registry before the user starts the application and has the requirement to enter the serial number or use the 15 non-consecutive day trial.
