Hidden 0 Posted December 12, 2001 WHAT THE )(/(%#&/¤"&¤#% !!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 I have a slow connection, really bad this evening too, 2 hours to download the Red Hammer campaign. Had my Visa card ready to pay for the goodies - guess what! My country is NOT ON THE LIST - and if that´s not enough - the bleepin transaction failed. I have enough money of course, and my bank told me there is nothing wrong with my Visa 2 days ago! So what in the #¤#%#¤% is the #&%& problem?? I am so unbelieveable pissed right now.. was looking forward to finally check out the Red Hammer campaign and strategy / editor guide. Thanks for nothing, Codemasters, if you are serious about the country list: United Kingdom France United States Republic of Ireland Germany I am NOT going to call another country just to be sure I get this right. I hope they will do something about this a.s.a.p. The other day I was about to register a domain name at www.registerfly.com - guess what: They declined my card, then they charged it for the money. I have e-mailed them but they have not answered in 3 days now. I am royally pissed. Then this happens. I had my bank check my Visa card because of Registerfly, then they told me it´s ok, nothing wrong. And I bought a DVD movie from Play247.com today, no problem. SO WHY... rrrrrrrrrrrrrhhh must relax, take deep breath.. puuhhhh... there there BUT I WANT RED HAMMER NOW! Hidden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaswell 1 Posted December 12, 2001 I'm in Norway, and I just used UK when I ordered RH online. No prob, for me at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrLaggy 0 Posted December 12, 2001 So where is the downloadable version? I was looking at their web site last night and couldn't find it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrLaggy 0 Posted December 12, 2001 Ah, I was looking on the e-shop page, not the front page! So am I right in thinking that you have to download an installer and then that downloads and installs the game after you enter your credit card number? So you can't re-install it if your machine crashes or you have to reinstall to get rid of a beta-patch before installing an official release patch? It's bad enough that I can't download it over the fast link at work rather than a 56k modem at home, but if I can't reinstall without paying again that would be really dumb. Either way, the way it's set up I think I'll buy the CD version instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaswell 1 Posted December 12, 2001 You download the whole package and that's it. When you run the installer, you only need to send your payment info to aquire a license. It seems that this license is stored on your hard drive (in folder \C_DILLA\SafeCast Product Licenses\) so my guess is that a reinstall checks if you're already a customer.

MrLaggy 0 Posted December 12, 2001 Ok, that's not so bad then; unless it's another of these "change a few things in your system and it won't run again" jobs... I have a fairly major upgrade to do on my system in a month or two, at least adding another hard drive, swapping the other two drives around and probably changing the sound card.

Tels 1 Posted December 14, 2001 I just picked up the CD from a local retailer. 39 DM (about 20 Euro), cheap for what you all get IMHO (heh, it has the v1.30 patch and the new RedHammer campaign and I can pick it up anonymously!). I have DSL, but I found it easier to install it from CD-ROM, have anything handy etc. Is the CD-R not available everywhere? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
