CD-Key Problem

Sin- · 11th May 2004, 02:49 PM

When I installed the Duffer's Golf Beta, It said that I had an invalid CD-Key. I Can run the normal game just fine. I am using UT2004. Any help would be appreciated.

Make sure your paths are correct. they should look like this:

/UT2004/Duffers/Animations
/UT2004/Duffers/Maps
/UT2004/Duffers/StaticMeshes
/UT2004/Duffers/System

etc.

Make sure no Duffers packages or ini's are in the default UT2004 folders (System, Textures, etc)

Thx fpr the tip, except it didn't work. Should I try reinstalling the game just in case?

Check specifically for any errant UT2K4Mods.ini files. For Duffers, there should only be one in the /UT2004/Duffers directory.

Sorry, Still no luck. Maybe I wasn't ment to play Duffer's Golf :-(

there was a problem like this with the deathball beta, and what was needed was to delete inis...i think that is was to delete the deathball inis first, then if that didnt work, backup your ut inis and delete them. make sure you back them up if you try it though

If all else fails, you can try the following:

Uninstall UT2k4.
Delete the UT2004 folder.
Reinstall the game. Make sure to type in your CD-Key very carefully.
Without installing/changing anything else, install Duffers Golf and see if that works. Like Mix said, make sure you unzip the .ZIP file into the UT2004 directory, and not into any subdirectory within.

If it still doesn't work, it's probably not a problem with the mod.

Another important note: do not install any UT2k4 Beta Patches that are floating around out there; many of them break mod support.

Yay! Thx guys for all your help. I ended up uninstalling UT2004, then deleeting the files that were left in C:\Ut2004 Then I reinstalled UT2004 and copied the duffers folder to C:\UT2004 Again, thx for your help. Great Mod!
