Yuris Revenge I need help
 
Does anyone know where i can find a Key Changer (not Key Generator) for this game?
I have 30 PCs and I have made them with norton ghost.
So I need it because all of them now have the same key and they can't play on lan.

well must be hard to change every god dame 29 computer with a new cd-key. Why don't you find out the key string in regedit, (can be defficualt can be easy) then hopefully it ask for a new one!

I tried that but I can't find the string.

Try contacting the publisher, they may help.
Or have the 30 users install the game on the computers before they use it.

erm... if u choose network (to play on lan) it doesnt check the cdkeys, so u can technicly install the game in all of em with the same cd key and play on network.

Follow_The_Leader 05-09-2004 13:29

Luciel you are wrong.
Red Alert 2 doesn't check for cdkeys when you play on lan
but Yuris Revenge does.

Luciel 05-09-2004 14:51

ok my bad, just assumed it would be the same

SCVirus 05-09-2004 21:56

Ok here we go:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Westwood\Red Alert 2\serial
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Westwood\Yuri's Revenge\serial

either edit them by opening up regedit or make a reg file with:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Westwood\Yuri's Revenge\serial]
"serial"="key" for both.

Since you have 30 machines to change it on this batch script might be faster:

Code:

set /p ra2=enterredalert2serial
set /p yuri=enteryuriserial
echo Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00> serials.reg
echo [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Westwood\Yuri's Revenge]> serials.reg
echo "serial"=%yuri%> serials.reg
echo [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Westwood\red alert 2]> serials.reg
echo "serial"=%ra2%> serials.reg
regedit /s serials.reg
del /Q serials.reg

SCVirus you wrote me a code.
Could you please tell me what type off file I must make and put it in?
file.*** ????

Follow_The_Leader 06-09-2004 03:29

Ok I made it
Ploblem solved Thanks SCVirus and everyone who replied
:)

SCVirus 06-09-2004 15:41

Its a batch script (.bat).

D-Machine 07-03-2007 00:08

Still won't work for me :(
 
I used the batch file on one system but it still won't connect to the others. Do we need unique RA2 keys too (though I reckon not, due to an earlier post)? Yuri's keys are unique though.

If you read the game EULA you will probably fiind it is against the law to use the same game on mulitple systems.
Therefore yes you will need unique keys which come with your 'own' unique purchased games!
