Detected cheat codes?

confused

May 6, 2008 7:38:30 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
Hello Stardock and generally knowledgable forum users,

I have a problem with my TA version.  Whenever I click on the "metaverse" button, before I have a chance to log in, I get a pop-up telling me that the game has detected cheat codes.  After I log in, no matter what game I make, the finished game does indeed come up flagged as a cheat code.

Now I uninstalled all of my beta/gamma versions for TA and re-installed the expansion from scratch, and yet the problem persists.  Usually an uninstall/reinstall fixes a problem, so now I'm a little stumped.  Do I need to uninstall and reinstall DL and DA as well?

Thanks for the help,
~ Wyndstar

Oh, and to the best of my knowledge I'm not in fact using any cheats for it to detect. Minor detail that I was assuming in the first post above.

Just to make sure...

Did you delete the folder in My Documents/My Games?

You may need to clear out the registry entries as well for a total fresh install. Not having this issue so i cant help more. Hope it gets rectified soon for you!

yes I did.

What do I need to do for this?


It effects my Tournament games too, btw, which is very sad for me, the Tournament games were the #1 feature I wanted from TA. I can still play sandbox games fine, but its very frustrating having everything cheat flagged.
