Activating with 'Activate New Products': Invalid serial Number. Even after entering your original CMRT and CMFB license keys? If not, what is your order number? I can double check that your code was correctly entered. 5 minutes ago, Hilts said: Anyone know how to activate the new upgrades if you're not given an "Activate new modules" app? I can't find it anywhere. Each game has it's own "Activate New Products" link. It should be inside your installation directory and possibly also on your desktop.

In the CMBN directory, I hit the 'Activate New products' short cut, opens the 'Activate New Products - CMBN' screen, I enter manually, I paste, my bundle upgrade license key, and get 'Invalid Serial Number.' ?? Needless to say this is very embarrassing given after Steve's fix everyone else's seems to work. What is your order number? I can check into the specifics and see what's up.

Needless to say this is very embarrassing given after Steve's fix everyone else's seems to work. Not for me. By using the main game serial number I just activate the main game (again). After that it still asks for the license number for the 4.0 upgrade and that is invalid. Edited December 24, 2016 by Aragorn2002 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thewood1 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 IIRC, if you install to a nonstandard drive, the activate shortcut doesn't make it to the desktop. I had an issue a few modules ago with the exact same problem and had to go searching for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBJ Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 (edited) Thanks Steve Battlefront.com, Inc. Purchase Order - 310222 I also tried activating after turning my protection off, still no go. I'm sure i'm going to be very embarrassed when I find out what i'm doing wrong. Edited December 24, 2016 by OBJ added info 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thewood1 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 When I run the Activate shortcut, it flashes once and then closes. I then run CMBS and I get the big red box. btw, had to go through PayPal to buy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thewood1 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 CMRT won't activate. I run the activation and it asks for the serial number. Put it in and hit activate. It says activating. Then I get a black box with an x in it and it asks me to activate it again. Rinse and repeat. All other games activated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilts Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 42 minutes ago, OBJ said: Hi Hilts, Try searching on 'activate' in C:\Users\<Computer name>\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission. You should get a short cut to 'Activate Modules'. See if that works, although you are taking advise from a guy that can't get the CMBN v4 upgrade to work yet. Also look in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Battlefront\Combat Mission Battle for Normandy, should be there too. Found it! Thanks mate and Steve too. Merry Christmas! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrykd Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I ordered CM updater 4,0 for all CM series. CMBN, CMBS, CMFB is ok. But still have problem with activation CMRT. What to do? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battlefront.com Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 For CMRT you must reenter your base game code. It's a quirk specific to CMRT. I'll see what I can do about flagging this information for easier viewing. Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Upgrade 4 Big Bundle CMRT license was activated, so I'm guessing you need to put in your original CMRT license to complete things.

Battlefront.com Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I've posted some Stickies in the CMRT Forum to help with getting the word out. Basically, if anybody sees anybody saying the have a CMRT licensing problem, just direct them to use Activate New Products link and enter their original CMRT license key. Works like a charm Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Activates okay but immediately get an APPCRASH error and the game crashes to desktop without progressing further. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
