Register your game at Matrix to resolve most install and activation issues

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!

It's really very simple. The original codes for Pipe Creek & Antietam simply do not align with the number of figures that Matrix demands. As long as the disparity exists, the problem will never be resolved. Try counting the number of figures required for each code- the original & the Matrix codes- & you will see why they don't work.

The codes will work for both the original NSD installers and the matrix.

Just wanted to bump this topic once again. It seems that folks that had issues installing 1.6 had non-matrix versions of the map packs (for example, the non-matrix version of Antietam was causing the 1.6 patch to fail). See the first post on how to register your products.

The link shouldn't show "download update". Let me walk through the process in detail to make sure you're doing it correctly.

1. First go to the members section http://www.matrixgames.com/members/
2. Login with your matrix username and password that you created.
3. This will bring you to the members club page where you can see a list of all matrix games.
4. Scroll down to the Scourge of War section
5. If you haven't registered your games, click the Register link to the right of the game
6. It will ask for the serial. Enter the serial to register it
7. Once it's registered, you will now see a Registered link next to it
8. Click that link to get a download link of the game.

Simple as that. :)

It is supposed to be 1.51 until you install the 1.6 patch. The process above is to get your game to the latest Matrix version so that it is possible to install the 1.6 patch.
