This update can only be applied to ShipConstructor 2008 R3 or later. This update uses the same database version as R4.1.1 (1.4.3.4) and therefore you do not have to update your databases.
Important! ShipConstructor 2008 R4.1.1 contained changes to licensing, therefore you must run the R4.1.3 update on the machine that is hosting your license server if you are updating from pre R4.1.1.
ShipConstructor 2008 R4.1.3 requires 1200 level lock licenses. The 1200 level lock licenses should NOT be confused with Universal Licensing. Do not download this release until you have contacted your local sales representative to update your locks. 1200 level lock licenses are the same licenses required for R4.0.1.
