Thought id try update my game..
after doing so only get "could not run SDActivate.exe try running as admin"
when trying to play the game,
any ideas ?
Have you downloaded Impulse?
www.impulsedriven.com
Its how Sins is now activated and updated. A minimalistic non parasitic version of Steam.
yea i updated it through impulse seemed to download ok,
the game just wont start up now
Uninstall then reinstall through Impulse. See if the helps.
Same problem, reinstallation proved just a useless... thanks stardock/impulse... another great game ruined
Please email [email protected] and they'll assist.
You could try updating the game while logged on to an admin account instead of a normal user account.
Go into you game folder wherever you installed the game:
.../Stardock Games/Sins of a Solar Empire/
and look for the exe file "Activate.exe".
Rename that sucker to SDActivate.exe. Rerun the game (for me i was running entrenchment).
Now you will get a pop up window asking for "Stardock Product Activation"
Enter your email and the product serial number you got in an email from them when you bought the game you have/are trying to run. (the six-segments with 5 characters each like XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX)
Click activate.
Congratulations! you are now running the game you payed for!
give yourself a pat on the back.
enjoy.
