The one you want is 4 groups of 4 digits with dashes, enter it including the dashes.


like this: ####-####-####-####

Status: offline 		The game appears to be version 1.31, though I just received it. Since I was familiar with UC, I checked for patches. So...I'm assuming that I start with patch 1.40. Correct? After unzipping the patch, the installer runs to serial number input, and it will not accept the exact serial number printed on the face of the CD.

Status: offline 		Ok, just for the hec of it, I downloaded, unzipped and attempted to install 1.30, even though I have version 1.31, since the downloads site says patch 1.30 should be installed before installing 1.40. Still no go, will not accept the serial number, xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx, printed on the face of the CD, and stated as the correct serial number on the order email. Could use a little help here!

Status: offline 		I contacted Support and verified the registered serial number. It was NOT the serial number printed on the CD, nor the serial number listed on the original order receipt.
Needless to say, when I entered the CORRECT serial number when installing the patches, it worked. Since I obviously had to enter the first serial number to install the game, there apparently are two serial numbers, one shipped with the game, and a different one registered with Matrix. Now that's what I call copyright infringement protection!!!
