Re: Supreme Ruler 2020 Global Crisis Expansion Release
Hi just thought id let you know the gamersgate version doesnt need online activation it just needs the serial they do have an annoying thing were it downloads the setup file as a dat file but its easy to get the setup.exe from the dat file using the gamersgate installer. Which you can burn to cd so the only thing you will need to go online for is updates and multiplayer.
Peace through Conquest

Well, I just started a topic in Paradox forums. I guess we may have more chance with more people requesting this, so I'm kindly asking everyone to post in that topic, just to draw more attention to this matter.. Thanks.
@ord4511
I don't recall any need for online activation for any SR title..

It's in the first post of the thread, reposting it again is pushing lazy a bit far

Not the link to the Gamersgate page... I meant the link to the thread in the Paradox forums, hence the reason I quoted madjack...Balthagor wrote:It's in the first post of the thread, reposting it again is pushing lazy a bit far

Re: Supreme Ruler 2020 Global Crisis Expansion Release
Hi madjack its not online activation its just that you have to rely on gamersgate software to install the game you might be able to use gamersgate software offline but i havent tried. This is what i did Choose a download location for gamersgate i usualy just put it in my documents and download the file using gamersgate software when the download is complete you will notice in the the top left it will have an install button for global crisis click on the install button and wait for the supreme ruler 2020 global crisis welcome screen to come up, do not click next! Instead open my documents (where the gamersgate download files are) there should be a folder called DD-SR2020X open it, you should see a file called SR2020GC-Install.exe copy this file to your desktop now go back to the global crisis installer welcome and click cancel and you will now have your very own setup.exe file with out relying on gamersgate installer software. I do not beleive by providing this informaton i am breaching any copy protection laws as the setup file still requires the serial provided by gamersgate to install. Awesome game

Re: Supreme Ruler 2020 Global Crisis Expansion Release
So....
Here I sit in my hotel in Honolulu, suffering through a sunburn while my kids are downstairs playing in the surf. I got another copy of 2020 and I'm downloading the patch at the hotels godawful speed(all of 10-12kb/sec). I've only got an hour and a half left to download it. Then I can take my mind off the annoying pain of the burn.
My question is how large is the download for Global Crisis? If it's not more than 100 megs or so, I'll do it. If it is larger, then I guess I'll just have to wait until we all get back home to frozen Illinois.

Oh cool. Thanks. I'll get that going then. My patch download got interrupted, so I had to restart it and it just finished. At least I'll be able to play a bit while the GC downloads.

Yep. Much better now. Took me a couple days to get the flaming/burning sensation over 3/4 of my body to cool down... It figures I'd forget that you need to apply sunscreen every hour or two instead of every 4 hours. We took off to Maui for a week after that and now we're home. I never did get to d/l the expansion, but I'm doing that now for the home comp while I sit here thinking depressing thoughts about actually working for a living again.Legend wrote:Hope you are feeling better and can enjoy Hawaii a bit while you are there.

Re: Supreme Ruler 2020 Global Crisis Expansion Release
Quick stupid question, with GC is there a way to rename units? Did I just forget how to do it, or did the group function take it's place?
