Cloud Credits work for Render, but not for Simulation

[lsand1324]

Hello, I am trying to do Topology Optimization for a homework assignment and it will not let me solve, as it says I do not have enough credits. I have been running the education license, so I have never run into this issue. I know the education license caps out at 16 credits per request, but the simulation was only using 3.

To check to see if my account was just not able to access the education Cloud Credits, I did a render, which ran fine, so I am still able to access the Cloud Credits, just not to do this TopOp simulation.

Hi @lsand1324 ,

If you click your user profile, then select Preference -> Cloud Credits / Tokens, you will see a Simulation section where you can choose a contract. I believe for Education you need to switch the contract in the preferences to use the unlimited educational ones.

Thanks,
