dw Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 So I hesitated in getting the vehicle update do to concerns about the license activation, and now there is a version 3.11 that also requires updating. So would like to ask if this is the correct sequence I am supposed to do - after purchasing the vehicle pack. 1) Install vehicle pack 2) Put in serial for 3.0 3) Put in serial for Commonwealth 4) Put in serial for Market Garden 5) Put in serial for vehicle pack 6) Install 3.11 7) Put in serial for 3.0 8) Put in serial for Commonwealth 9) Put in serial for Market Garden 10) Put in serial for vehicle pack Is this correct? Also I have a Mac and the instructions say the activation link for the modules is in the documents folder. That is the the folder inside the applications folder for CMBN? The patch feature list looks great! Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtHatred Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I didn't have to do steps 7-10 on my Windows PC. Pretty sure only people without the VP have to activate 3.11. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Yeah, after you install the vehicle pack (and do the activations), install 3.11 and you shouldn't have to reactivate anything. I just installed 3.11 about an hour ago on my PC (already had the VP installed from a couple weeks ago) and everything went fine.

Heirloom_Tomato Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I also had the vehicle pack and did not need to do steps 7-10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregb41352 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Well I don't have the vehicle pack and upgrading to 3.11 broke the game. My re-activation request resulted in an invalid serial number. *sigh* 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks The earlier replies have got you covered, but just to confirm from the Mac angle: - the (re)activation of the modules is a once-only event, so you do that either for v3.1 & the VP or for v3.11, but not both: so with the VP, no steps 7 - 10; - yes on the location of the documents folder, that's where you'll find - and will need to use - the activation link to be able to do steps 3-5, after you do step 2 in the initial instal window that opens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hister Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Well I don't have the vehicle pack and upgrading to 3.11 broke the game. My re-activation request resulted in an invalid serial number. *sigh* Provide a bit more information please. Do you have engine upgrade 2.0 and 3.0? You need both before you can patch the game up to 3.11. Hope that you left all the files of 3.11 patch thicked when you downloaded them (should be more then 1 gig of data size). Download it. Extract it. Start the setup. Your game gets updated. Start the game - you are asked to activate it. Enter 3.0 serial key. Go to activate game shortcut on your desktop. Start it and enter serial keys of any module you have (that is if you do). If not you can skip this step. Let us know if you were sucessful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dw Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 Just purchased the vehicle pack - and went through the licensing process without a hitch. Also did the upgrade to 3.11 - and it did not ask for the a serial. So up to speed on CMBN. Also did the upgrade to 1.02 for Red Thunder - and had no problems with the licensing for it either. Still wish Battlefront would make this easier - but had no problems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they actually are working on that. While updating may be a pain for some of us individually, it is much more frustrating for their end supporting the collective mess. It is really in their interest to come up with a simpler more streamlined process and BF is far some stupid when it comes to figuring out how to keep their resources focused. Patience and trust - they will sort it out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuri Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 This game really needs a sticky thread that includes the correct update sequence... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doomed Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Just to confuse things further I bought the V3.0 Upgrade and vehicle pack this morning I followed the steps in the OP but I did not have to install 3.11. The vehicle pack installation now seems to include 3.11. Anyone else found this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hister Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Yes it does include it by default. That's a novelty when everything will be included and you will have to simply unlock it. It,also means you will be able to play multiplayer games with peopel for example not owning vehicle pack. How dadny is that eh! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
