Vehicle Pack Activation from the Manual

[c3k]

Gents,

Since there are questions about how to activate, I've copied the instructions from the manual.

Activation / Licensing IMPORTANT! The CM:BN Vehicle Pack is special!

Unlike previous releases, it requires you to reactivate your base game (v3.0),

and all other modules (if you have any) when you launch it for the first time.

Start by launching the game normaly (e.g. doubleclick). You will be prompted to

re-activate your game. No worries, this is not going to use up an activation.

a) Please find your CMBN Engine Upgrade v3.00 license key that

you received when you purchased the Upgrade. Repeat: you need the

v3.00 Upgrade key. Keys from v1.00 or v2.00 won’t work.

make sure the computer on which you have the game installed has

an active online connection to the internet

c) click “Enter Serial” in the product activation dialog window.

d) enter your v3.0 license key into the correct field.

e) hit the “Activate” button and wait a few seconds while your license authorizes.

f) this activates your base game. If you launch the game now, it is going to show you the base v3.00 install without any modules and

without the Vehicle Pack.

g) now you need to activate the Pack as well as any other modules you may have. To do so, you need to use the “Activate Modules”

shortcut link to bring up the activation interface again. If you opted to not have it created on your desktop or deleted it from there,

then you can find the link in (PC) your Start menu under Start > Programs > Battlefront > Combat Mission Battle for Normandy, or

(Mac) in the Application folder.

h) repeat the above procedure for any module you may have, as well

as for the Vehicle Pack itself. You will need the following license keys:

- for the Commonwealth Forces and Market Garden Modules, you need a license key from when you purchased said module,

including as part of a bundle (for example, the Big Bundle, CMBN + Commonwealth Bundle, Comonwealth + 3.0 + Market Garden

Bundle, and so on.)

- for the Vehicle Pack, use the same key you used to download the Pack

I hope this resolves any lingering issues.

Thanks for this. I passed it around the office and we all had a good laugh.

Translation for dummies (I made it, you will make it too):

1. download pack

2. install pack with exe

3. start game and enter license key

4. be angry that you dont have the nice little symbols on the start screen you had before

5. use the activate thing described above for each and every module upgrade or whatever you purchased (or the big pack as in my case)

6. be happy the little symbols are back and there is some text about version 3.10, that was not there before

7. check if you find a f*** flamethrower tank in a QB setup - be angry again

8. use the activate thing for the pack you just purchased

9. be happy about a new funny little symbol

10. write a stupid posting, say goodbye to your wife and children and lock yourself in a dark room
