Lost my original registration code several years ago

Post by Twilit1 »

I lost it with several of the disks...I used a friends external drive to reload it onto my new computer and tried to install using the "online registration code in my manual" LOL thinking this was the registration it needed to install. It took me 3 days to get on here and found that I not only didn't remember my password, login, and also worst of all have a new e-mail now. This site doesn't recognize me or any of my old user names...I'm getting frustrated. HOW can I get my registration code. Do i have to wait a year for the new COMPLETE XXX to come out??? I want to play now.
Please help me.

As far as I'm aware, no CD/DVD version of Reunion requires a reg code/cd key to install. What exactly is the situation?

As far as the account goes, if you can PM me with the details of the account, we can take it from there. We'd need to be able to definitively identify you as the same person to be able to sort it out though, for obvious reasons.

Hello

I'm in a similar situation to the original poster except I was able to reactivate my account :)

I have the X2 disk to hand but the manual isn't in the box so I don't have the code. X3 is buried in a cupboard somwhere, and it's not worth my marridge to fish it out just yet.

Soooo, as I registered both codes with my account, is there a way I can get them back? I'm desperate for a space trader/shooter and I loved X2 and X3. Plus with my new super dooper system I can max everything out :).

Happy new year all

@TitaniumDevil, I've responded to your PM.

I can only reiterate that my belief is that the reg code for both X2 and X3:R was only ever used for forum registration. I'm not as sure that no version of X2 required a cd key, but if one did, I'd expect it to be separate from the reg code. If someone can confirm that the install is definitely asking for a key, then I can get a more definitive answer though.

@milbot, have you actually tried installing X2? I'm not sure of your expectations for X3 given you don't have the disk...?

As far as getting the reg codes from your forum profile, it can be done, but not by me. I can raise it with someone who can, but I'd prefer to know that it's necessary first.

Thanks for the reply eladan, I'll give that a try at some stage. In the meantime I've just seen X2 and X3 are available on steam for £5.20 the pair, which is a right bargain.

Not having to worry about CD's again is well worth the additional cost.

As per this sticky thread on the main forum, some versions came without reg codes. As also mentioned in that sticky, there should no longer be any requirement for a reg code anyway. The only thing a reg code will give you is a 'ticky disc' and a post count.
