Hi,
I've developed a Vehicle Turning Simulation for Microstation as freeware (https://glamsen.se/MSTurn_2.htm). I was using my work-license of Microstation for developing and now I'm about to retire from work. However I still want to provide users with my freeware without buying a expensive licens for testing and maintenance.
Anyone heard about a limited Microstation versions other than trial versions?

Hi Lars,

I think "heard about" is not too serious source of information ;-)
I recommend to contact Bentley representatives (BDN team) directly.

I do not know how your application is implemented and what API is used, but access to MicroStation API is through BDN membership. Was your employer BDN member?

An option is to negotiate with former employer (especially when it's BDN member) or with some user to user available license. If there is somebody who use your application often, he should be interested in its further maintenance.
With regards,
