A leeetle problem

July 19, 2006 9:41 AM from

Basically, I have GC II installed on 2 computers. One is on the internet but I can't use it much as there's always someone else on it and I like to sit down and play for a couple hours. The other computer is mine, but it's not on the 'net. I downloaded the 1.2 patch, put in on a removable USB disk and installed it on MY computer. Now I discover that I can't update the serial and thus I can't use the game.

Anything you guys could do to help would be greatly appreciated...

Many Thanks

In the GalCiv2 direcotry there's a file named sig.bin. Delete that, and follow these steps:

1) Start the game; you will get a prompt for your serial and email. Provide them and continue.
2) It will fail to activate (of course) and ask if you'd like to activate by email. Click Yes.
3) Copy the subject line and big block of letters into a text file, or into your email program, and save it off to portable media (CDR, USB drive, floppy, etc).
4) Take it to a web-connected PC and send an email to [email protected] with that subject line and content.
5) You should receive a reply with a file and some instructions; take the file back to the non-connected PC and you should be set to go.
