Eastern Front question

[Blackbishop]

Which version number of Company of Heroes do you have?

[kaiser1993]

2.101

EF works with 2.600+. you need to update. Is it a legit copy?

[kaiser1993]

its a legit copy, but i installed the game from a backup of the disk

[Blackbishop]

steam or "just" backup?

Being steam, if you have the steam app and did a backup from it(you know, Steam->Backup or Restore Games OR Steam->Library->Right Click over the game->Backup).

Being "just" backup moving/copying the folder to another path in order to preserve it.

[kaiser1993]

no steam, I just copied the contents of the CoH disk onto my pc and ran the setup from there.

Download the patches you need from here:

http://cohpatch.relic.com/

you'll need from "Company of Heroes 2.101 - 2.201.torrent"
then
"Company of Heroes 2.201 - 2.202.torrent" and so on until "Company of Heroes 2.600 - 2.601.torrent".

You can validate after you update to 2.601, I don't know why you stopped updating.

[kaiser1993]

2.101 to 2.201 wont install now, it prompts that i have an unregistered version and wont let me install

[Blackbishop]

Did you download the patches from the site above or are you using relicdownloader?

[kaiser1993]

downloaded all the updates from different websites. fileshack etc, so i think it is a relic downloader

[Blackbishop]

As I said before, email to THQ support. They can help you with this issue.

EDIT:
Relicdownloader is the software that relic bundles with CoH, it starts every time you starts CoH and try to update the game as well. But if you downloaded from a website, that's better !! GL with THQ Support.

You must copy the registry entries also.

[Loupblanc]

 Well, there is your solution.
 Register your game, first.

[kaiser1993]
