Scourge of War 1.5 Patch / Activation Errors

Game won't run. Keeps crashing. Hopefully we won't get any posts here, but if we do, we'll try to help you out. You can also post any bugs that you find here. IMPORTANT: Don't post mod related problems here!

Thanks Born.

Last question, (right...). Do I deactivate the game first or just charge in with the patch?

Full speed ahead with the patch. It does away with the need for activation.

Every time I say that, I hear the collective sigh of relief in the background. :P

Ha!

Knew there would be more questions - Norb has some posting at the beginning of this thread about registering with Matrix games to get the patch. So, which freakin' patch do I use and where do I get it? (God, I'm tired of this already....)

Jack - Hey, how is everything going, you haven't been around in a while, except a post here and there.

Well, as you already know, there have been quite a few problems with the proper procedure in Installing the patch.

But, after reading most of the problems that people are having, I'm under the impression that there is not a single solution to solve them that works for everyone.

You are just going to have to take it one-step-at-a-time and see what works for you. If the game isn't working when you get through Installing everything, then go from that point.

It is not necessary to register with the other company unless you want them to keep your codes on hand for you.

I have mine saved in varies places on the Computer, and also in my EMail account. So, if my Computer goes down, I can still retrieve them from EMails.

Sorry, but there is no single answer that is going to work for everyone!

Thanks Born,

Got it and installed. HOWEVER, game runs fine except Antietam and Pipe Creek have disappeared from the game completely with the exception of the PC maps listed in the Maps section but not shown in the Sandbox map section. At no time was I given the opportunity to give up the codes to activate them. Question - do I download them again, using the same codes?

Okay........

Apparently the old link to the NorbStore doesn't work anymore. MatrixGames apparently has no provision for this situation. Am I missing something here? I have searched my comp from top to bottom and can find no trace of either download. Was I stupid enough to do a direct install from the link? Maybe...

Thoughts?

Thanks LP.

I sort-of thought that might be the case. Was really hoping to avoid dealing with Matrix if at all possible. Not a huge fan of third-party operations. Will give it a shot and see.

Okay - that worked. :laugh:
