rogue187 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I just downloaded the British Forces module, but I can't get the license to install. Every time I do, the thing just crashes. I tried the offline option but it gave me a 404 error message that the web site was not available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 The offline option is 100% the same thing as browsing the web. All you have to do is visit a website. If you're having problems with that, then it's pointing to serious issues with your PC. Since you're not including a whole lot of detail (when exactly does it crash, what does "crash" mean etc.) there isn't any way to help you, I'm afraid. BTW, I don't even know what a 404 error is. I have seen 505 errors, but never heard of 404. Feel free to submit a support ticket at www.battlefront.com/helpdesk and we can try to figure out what the problem is, but please include a more detailed description of your PC and what you're trying to do exactly. Licensing is not complicated matter, and unless you're behind a Proxy or Router, or have your PC over-protected, the online license is a one click affair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogue187 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 Thanks Moon, sorry for being vague. What happens is that I copy and paste the license into the box then click install. The thing says that it is downloading the license and I get a notice from my AVG asking if I want to allow this to happen. I hit ok, then I get a message saying that the program has to close becuase of a problem with the combat mission .exe file. Does this help? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Here are a few things to try: Make sure you have the game set to "Run as administrator" in the Right-Click->Properties menu. Set an exception in AVG to leave the entire game folder alone, or disable AVG temporarily. For more details, go to www.battlefront.com/helpdesk and check out the Knowledgebase section there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 eLicense has its own error codes that have nothing to do with http error codes. You get a list of most of them in the Troubleshooter at www.battlefront.com/helpdesk. If you mean that you got a 404 code trying to access www.elicense.net, the offline license website, then this most likely means an internet connection problem on your end. It's not a licensing error, it's an internet error. Martin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogue187 Posted February 2, 2010 Author Share Posted February 2, 2010 It was the AVG firewall. I turned it off and had no problem. Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
