I bought Starshater some time ago from Ebay, runs great and is perfectly original, I don't have any problem with the game, but the problem is with the patches. When trying to install, it says that I need to put a cd-key, what cd-key?? In the Starshatter cd are 3 or 4 but no one of them is working!! What I can do?? I want to update the game to have a quick mission generator hability.
Please help!!

The Serial No. on the CD IIRC.

What???

I have this file on the CD. Is called Cd-key, but no one of the 5!! cd-keys will work with the patch. What I'm making wrong??.
A note first CD-key worked perfectly when installing 4.0 full game version.

Starshatter (c) Matrix Games
GAME.TYPE ........: Strategy


Game Notes:
~~~~~~~~~~~

Starshatter represents the next generation of space combat simulation games.

Starshatter extends the gameplay concepts of the classic sims by combining

fighter and starship combat in a single game. You begin the game as either

a fighter pilot or the captain of a small Frigate-class starship. As you

progress through the game, you can earn promotions and awards until you are

commanding a massive fleet carrier with three wings of fighters and a

complete escort of warships. Starshatter promotes airborne fighter combat

to a first-class game component, allowing you to take-off and land at

planetary bases, engage in aerial dogfights, and use air-to-ground missiles

to destroy ground targets.



Starshatter also integrates elements of real-time-strategy games by allowing

fleet commanders to direct the battle on a tactical level, launching

fighters and directing destroyers to defend the fleet and annihilate enemy

forces. You will arm fighters for patrol or strike missions. You will send

orders to your escorting destroyers and frigates to engage enemy starships

or defend the fleet from attack by enemy fighters. You are the admiral, and

you decide how to employ all of your forces in battle. It is all up to you.


Install Notes:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When setup asks for a serial enter one of the following:

relo-aded-xxxx-xxxx

tota-lown-xxxx-xxxx

kick-thel-xxxx-xxxx

hide-your-xxxx-xxxx

ment-alho-xxxx-xxxx

Note: The modified installer should start automaticly If it does, not start it
by running irsetup.exe. Do not start it with Starshatter-Setup.exe as this
will not accept our serials.

Those serials wont work.You might think you bought an original,but that's most definitely a pirated version.I had a copy just like it until I paid for the real thing,same serials and all.Bad luck mate,Buyer beware and all that,hope you didn't pay too much for it.

What a shit then!
Thank's for the help!

It´s an illegal warez version you bought.

So I need to buy a legal version here??

That sounds like the safest option, at least you know what you get, and you know it works too.
