Unnable to update

from Sins Forums
heres how it goes:
got my old computer back from being cleaned (it shortcircuited due to dust), the beta was already closed but I have it loaded onto a crappy computer that cannot run it.
the beta would not load onto my computer despite my having the beta, so I loaded the beta on to shared files from the "total gaming" file on up. I unpacked this on my other computer and it worked perfectly fine (after rechanging the "fmod" file from the bug-fixing one to original) but I still cannot get anything related to the beta to load off of stardock. it simply wont register that I have it and it wont recognize that I've registered for it on stardock on both computers. it only recognizes the crappy computer. (yes I registered it onto the fixed one)
I cannot find whats causing things to screw up.

Yeah this is weird as I have the beta on 2 PC's one of which I copied it over to in a similar way as you did. But mine worked, and yours hasn't. I am wondering if it has something to do with not registering it on the other PC before the beta closed?

Where are the developers???????????

All I did was install stardock on a different pc and log my account onto that pc and install sins onto it. Never had to register..

I wasn't so lucky.

also, I think this is key; I did this post-beta close

and SD wont even recognize that I have the program, it says under installed " --------" and under available " 0.60 "

thats for sure to be a key problem, i have to ask, did you order the game with that account you are using now?
You can take alook here if you got the key https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/myaccount.aspx?reg

In the games tap, what are you looking at? under demos?
It should be under purchased. If it doesnt show up there, your not logged in with the right account into stardock central.

hope it helps

Its not bad luck Schem. You just have to learn to deal with the fact that the world finds you irritating and wants to make your life miserable.
