{{Version SMS 12.2}}
Starting at version 12.2 there is a free version of SMS called "Community Version." This version provides limited access to the [[SMS:SRH-2D|SRH-2D]] model interface. Current versions of SMS will run in Community Version until a valid license code is used to register SMS. <!--Access to the Community Version can be obtained by requesting a license code via the internet from the [[SMS:Registering SMS|''Register'']] dialog in SMS reached through the [[SMS:Help Menu|''Help | '''Register''']] menu command. In the ''Register'' dialog, select the '''Change Registration''' button then click the '''Request License''' button to be sent to Aquaveo's website.
Starting at version 12.2 there is a free version of SMS called "Community Edition". It is limited to include only the [[SMS:Mesh_Module|2D mesh module]] and the [[SMS:SRH-2D|SRH-2D]] model interface. It is also restricted in the size of the mesh and the number of simulations. Any size model can be imported, but if the mesh exceeds 5000 elements or the number of simulations is more than one, the project cannot be saved and a watermark is displayed in the Graphics Window. The community edition must still be [[SMS:Registering_SMS|registered]] using a license code which can be obtained via the internet from the ''Registration Wizard'' (''Help | Register | Change Registration'' | '''Get Community Edition License''').


Check to see if running in Community Edition mode by going to the ''Registration'' dialog. The size limits are displayed in the ''About'' dialog which is accessed through the '''About''' command in the [[SMS:Help Menu|''Help'']] menu.
A license can also be requested directly at: [http://www.aquaveo.com/request-community www.aquaveo.com]
