Baskat Posted June 1, 2005 Posted June 1, 2005 Following manual registration of LO1.1-FC, the starforce website proclaimed that I only have 4 registrations left. I thought we were given an initial number of activations of 15?!? Anyone who knows who to contact in order to have the number of activations increased? The game was bought online and downloaded may 31st '05. Tia, Baskat Btw: I have searched through this an other fora (SimHQ, UBI) in order to find the answer. I can see that I am not the only one with the problem. However, I did not find any answers to how to increase the remaining activations...

I bought 1.1 when it first came out and since then my activations went up from 5 to 15 automatically when I reinstalled the game again...
Hitman IF Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 Those who got 1.1 at first seem to have got 15, while everyone else seems to be down to 5. I imagine that now the registry activation key saver tool is available, few people will need more than five activations. ---SVBS squad is playing Lock On, ADF/TAW and Typhoon now at www.svbs.co.uk !---
WhiskeyRomeo Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 Anyone who knows who to contact in order to have the number of activations increased? Check the Sticky Topic in this section by Wags titled 1.1 News, 13 April 05 As Hitman mentioned that free Activation Store Utility tool will really reduce the need to "spend" an activation if you re-install FC. It's a good idea to backup your activation even if you don't plan on doing a re-install.
Skopro_PL Posted June 21, 2005 Posted June 21, 2005 true but waht about if u upgrade your pc..im sure with all the hardware changes that it will take an activation..for instance my roommate is crazy and updates his pc every few months(no joking) im sure he would be out of those activations real quick... | 8700k @4.9 | Gigabyte Gaming 7 | 32gb Tridentz @3000 | EVGA 1080 TI SC2 | CV1 | VKB MCG PRO [sigpic]https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FeLGqKyJ3K08k3z-7XaegWgRuGRGkKUs/view?usp=sharing[/sigpic]
Conuk Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 I installed 2 new raptors in raid - thus installing lock on on the new drives with fresh OS install - i tried the tool... bus as I expected starforce jumped out :) ... had to activate again which I expected ... but my activations had increased to 15 anyways.... so no worries.

Conuk Posted July 5, 2005 Posted July 5, 2005 Oh really? I must be going bilind then.. and it didnt really say 15 activations left then... I originally had 5 - when I did the above and had to reactivate it stated 15 - get your facts right.
Ragtag Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 I just upgraded my computer with a new motherboard, cpu and a display card. I installed the saved reg file wich i saved earlier...didn't help and now im down to 3 activations left. And i update my system quite often. ED should really do something about this because it really isn't fair for us download owners. This might prevent me of buying another addon later on.

Dmut Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 What's the big deal? Ragtag, when you get your activations over, you need to contact ED and you'll get new serial, that's common practice. 1 "There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general: recklessness, which leads to destruction; cowardice, which leads to capture; a hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults; a delicacy of honor which is sensitive to shame; over-solicitude for his men, which exposes him to worry and trouble."

Vati Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 And when there is no ED (which I hope will never happen, however there are no guarantees whatsoever)? That's why I had waited and purchased CD. http://www.condorsoaring.com
Dmut Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Don't worry, if ED finally went to collapse, and will not be able to maintain serial keys management anymore - then they will surely release an unrotected patches, simply because ED do respect its customers.

Sorry Dmut! I have by many hardware bill of exchange, a new key of ED get, which cannot worked. The new activationskey was already 5 times used. A new key I got not.

Ragtag Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 So...as you can see, it is definatly a BIG deal...maybe not for you but for many of us a big consern and it will make me think twice before i buy another addon. I paid for the addon and i should definatly be able to activate more than 5 times without having to ask ED if i can use it again after the 5 first ones. As above poster says...WHAT if ED goes bye bye. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I7 3930K. 16Gb Corsair Vengeance 1866mhz. Asus P9X79 Deluxe. Asus GTX680 2Gb. Auzentech Home Theater 3D Sound. TM Warthog HOTAS.
