Hey, first post and i've just purchased the game, I put this here because its long and I didn't want to clutter the technical feedback thread with what might be a stardock client problem. I've bought dread lords through the stardock client so I know the basics however I haven't been part of a beta before.
I went to register the game after I purchased it, using the menu buttons, wondering why it wasn't showing up in the client. So I registered using the serial and sure enough it showed up as the demo.
After realising I needed to select the 'show pre-release button' I did and downloaded the full game, however now when the install comes to activate using the same number I get the error

Double clicking the exe brings me to the activation screen, where I try to activate.
I get an Error Activating the product message.
I've had a look just now and I can't see a sig.bin file in that main directory at all.
This is my log it gave me straight after the install:
