chopra_hill Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 How do I play fm on this one as my old one is what it's registered too... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Download Steam, and login. You can then install the game on the new computer. You can only be logged into Steam from one computer at a time. If you're old computer is hooked up, then quit Steam, or uninstall it if you never intend to use it for FM again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljwjones Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Then if you want to copy your saved games over you can also do this they will be in(assuming your on windows) C:\Users\'YOUR USER AREA'\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2012 then inside the folder in there called games, or you can copy all that folder over, it will contain any custom skins or face packs or such....

ljwjones Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 It shouldn't be doing, you should just have to install and load steam, click to play FM and it will download and install it again... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcidBurn Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 The only code it asked me for was one that was sent to the email that I used with my steam account. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ljwjones Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 yeh it's the only account i have. half the time because my internet was **** i'd end up playing offline, no idea if that effects it. not happy!! All you can do then I assume is to raise it with steam, as it sounds like your game has gone missing.....when you try to find FM 12 in the store on steam, what is the option you get? Is it to buy it?

chopra_hill Posted June 1, 2012 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 yeah mate i get the option to buy it. such effort this, why can't it be like where you just install the game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljwjones Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 normally you do just install the game, just quickly check on the old laptop that the user name is the same as the one on new laptop...only reason I can think that it wouldnt just show up.

PGB_SPURS_FM09 Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I just installed my fm to another computer... I went into steam on the old one... Backed up the game in there to a portable hard drive. Then logged out. Plugged the portable hard drive into my new comp... Downloaded steam and then went to the backup section again but chose the restore option.
