Will the game eventually be listed so that we can register with Matrix? All of my Matrix titles are registered, and I would like to add this one also.

If you buy from Matrix (and I suppose you will do that, we are on the Matrix forum there [:D] ), then this is the standard Matrix procedure which apply, when you retrieve your serial key. I believed you were speaking of buying direct from AGEOD (we also sell the game).

I was talking about Matrix. I bought the game from Matrix and downloaded this morning. When I went to register it like my other games, it is not on the list.

Thanks Eric

I have 9 games registered and want to add this one to the list. I just tried again at 9 pm central time and it is still not there.

Another thought....

Since I bought the game from AGEOD (and have now re-obtained my serial number), where will latest patches and mods, etc. be available? If Matrix is the place, will my serial number be needed there for downloads? Seems too complicated to have both places with these files, maybe necessary. Got Info?

Thanks Jimi3,

But my question is still there here at Matrix or at AGEOD? Also, when these patches say latest, what is the actual patch number, 1.05c or ???? I have downloaded the same patch two-three times because I cannot figure which patch version it is. Again, thanks jimi3. [:)]

1.05d has been published yesterday evening, so the description was not updated yet but you will see that in the essential files thread, there is the mention of the patch number. Also patches when officially released always come with a message in the forums (at AGEOD and here), so rest assured, you won't miss anything.

As for serial protection: Our games use a different serial protection scheme compared to Matrix. We have the protection embedded directly in the game engine, so you won't have a request to enter your serial in the patch installer, because your serial is checked each time you launch the game anyway.

Last but not least, compatibility: Matrix version and AGEOD one are fully compatible, for ALL the files. Take the patch from where you want, and such...

Hi Pocus,

Is there a difference between your company's download and Matrix's, or do they both have the serial number embedded directly in the game engine?

Thanks.
