Matrix Games Forums

Does the BTR work with W7? I keep getting error message 200, bad authorization code.

I copied all the files and directories from my previous PC's HD(XP, on which game worked OK), copied registries too(changed installation path of course). I cant make it work. I wanted to make sure it wasnt just something I screwed up, and did it again. No good. Then I copied it from laptop(which is copy of ex-PC's BTR, game runs OK as I'm typing this), yet, no good. I'm 100% sure I have registries OK, paths, username, code, authorization and all the other values. No typos in keys, they're in correct place too(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Matrix Games \).

Any hints? I would redownload the game but the web store keeps telling me I got either password or username/email wrong. They are not/shouldnt be...

EDIT: Error code 200, authorization code, of course.

works for me..w7 ultimate 32bit

I got it working. Edited it so it thought it was version 1.00 and worked after updating... I see nothing changed in registries or serialreg file. Hmm. Now just one problem: I had 3 btruser.dat s backed up, none of which worked with the PBEM save file.

I tried to make my own btruser.dat file but this obviously is not going to work. I'd appreciate if you had the time to look at the save, there(its a .jpg, just rename .btr [:D]: )
