Football Manager 2009 patch download details (was authentication and update)

[lenny]

Just had to register my disgust. This bloody activation code will be the death of me (or my girlfriend if she keeps looking at me that way)

If I had wanted to play Sudoko I'd of bought a book not a computer game. I am well peed off with trying different combinations of 0 and O with I and 1 thrown in for good luck and thinking why the hell should I be doing this.

I think Si better have a rethink right now as to activation of this bloody thing because my copy is going to have to be returned never to be replaced.

[VudoBadger]

any news on the patch fixing the Editor? Mac and PC

[dbfinch]

Clearly, the situation is a mess.

If the download off Steam isn't available until midnight, activations shouldn't have begun before midnight. Because it results in those who have bought the game from elsewhere being able to activate it while those actually using Steam are unable to download it until midnight. Then you've got SI themselves releasing the patch ahead of the very release date they keep mentioning, which is easily construed as them acknowledging the game has been 'released' and that people are in a position to play it, and so want the patch. Then you've got Mac users, like myself, who have the game and don't have to activate it or anything, but may as well not bother starting a new game because we need the patch to resolve two big bugs. Yet the Mac patch isn't yet available because, it seems, the Mac QA at Sega and/or SI is (to quote Alan Hansen) very, very poor.

Everything should've gone live at midnight. Release both patches then. Start activations then. That way, no one feels 'left out' because someone else is able to play the full game with the first patch. Oh, and apparently use an activation code that doesn't include both 0/O and 1/I..

[trekman]

Whats wrong with the editor? Never seen any posts about this.

[englandmanager]

let off some steam!!!!!!

nice pun

[qwerty1239]

0/O, 1/I, oh **** it, I can't be arsed with this tonight.

[DWCallaghan]

Right, toys back in pram.
Files on PC, on other drive, no icon but just did a shortcut to one, and Steam has patched it up to 9.1 already.
So it seems it is good to go........

When you pout it that way, you've got to laugh really. Especially because people are having to play suduko with their 1,I,O,0 keycodes to try and get the game to work in the first place.

I can see Miles now, head in hands, wondering what he did to deserve all of this.

Hi Guys Need Help !!
I click on my desktop FM09 icon and all i keep getting is an error messgae that will not allow me to entre the game ...

The Error message reads "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002)"

Does anyone know why its giving me this error???
been trying for over 3hours to get some direction

did you install the game with the demo still installed?


some problems i've solved in the past with FM are chkdsk and then reinstall

chkdsk can take a while though but it does sort your hard drive bad sectors out

hope this helps

I come across a similar error in my job, it might be related to mircosoft .net framework 2.0 or sp 1 In add or remove programs there is a repair option for 2.0 or a change for 2.0sp1 (which repairs!)

This mite resolve your issue, Im still waiting for my link from sega....

I was always quite handy at suduko so I'd probably have been alright!

I suppose the whole thing has to be looked upon as a learning experience, it's just a shame that we've had to be such public guinea pigs.

HELP WITH KEY CODE STUPID 0 AND o i and 1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bitch ain't it.

[Parkera]

I tried to activate via steam and it would not accept my code and the game was delivered today and my code on the back of the book has NO 0 or o in it yet it still said invalid code somethings not right with steam. However the other way worked fine, but surely SI you may need to look at this for future releases if you are going to stick with steam! I am in NZ btw and I tried to activate about 10mins ago via steam so its not cause its not yet midnight in uk.

[qwerty1239]

FINALLY!

SI, what the **** is that 0 and O all about. They are actually identical, I kept trying different methods and eventually it worked.

But jesus christ. What a shambles this has been since the demo release.

[MarcosG]

What is the error [-1003] for?

Got 3 o in my key,does it mean it could be either zero or o?I tried both,all 3 o or all 3 zeros but still the same message.Is it possible that although they are identical one could be o and the others zero?So I have to try all possible options?
Or is the activation thing not live yet?

[toli8]

i never installed the demo.
Not sure what chkdsk means sorry buddy
any other ideas to get this started??? i took work off today just to have a good start to te season

[John-t]

How many Patches are there I have just downloaded 9.1 (rapidshare) installed it game says 9.1 and all is good but when I click check for updates in the game it goes online and says there is a Minor update available.... is this just because we are a bit early and not everythings caught up with itself or is there a minor update out there?

Thanks guys

They are live.

And yes, it could be a 0 or a O.

I tried about 10 methods, and it finally worked. Ridiculous.

From what I've read, the 'o' can be either an zero or the letter o, so you'll need to try mixing them up. Activation is live, as far as I know.

This is going to be chaotic tomorrow once the game is actually released!

I just hope I get a good code.

Can I download the game from steam and download the patch from rapidshare, will that work??

Everyone in Australia was told this would be working from 6AM onwards. I delayed going to work so I could have a bit of a look at it, but this has ended up being a waste of time.

I demand an apology to all Aus/NZ users. If this is not working by midnight UK Time in Australia, I (and at least 3 other people I know locally) will be returning the game to the shop promptly.

I am definitely not joking about this. I probably only buy 1 or 2 games a year and FM is always one of them, but never again. This is a joke.

I'd have rather they let people pirate, I was still happy to buy the game, as this is pretty much the only game I play. I got my friend into playing this game (it's not so big in Aus, but when I showed him how it worked, he got hooked) and now I'm embarrassed with the hassle he's had to go through to get the game working... AND IT'S STILL NOT EVEN WORKING HERE.

[JumbledSausage]

I doubt it - If you downloaded the game from steam, steam will automatically download and install the patch for you, hence you wouldn't need to download from rapidshare.

If it's any help I had lots of I's and O's

It turns out they were all O's not 0 (zeros)

and all I's not ones.......

Hi,

The activation and sales from STEAM should be active. Earlier in the evening it was active for activating boxed product, but not digital downloads. Now you should be able to complete your STEAM purchase and activate.

[r0x0r]

Why exactly do companies use letters and numbers rather than just letters? It's make it all far easier.

Lets assume a VERY short code. Just 12 letters long. We still have over 95,000,000,000,000,000 combinations. Lets assume 95 million copies of FM are produced. Yes, it's the best selling game ever, by a long long margin.

We still have 1 real combination in every MILLION combinations. Unless i've done my sums wrong here, that means that a selection of 12 letters would work perfectly, with a million to one chance of randomly getting it right. Add a 13th letter and you up that to 1 in 26million, even with 95million "real" codes. At 14, you have a one in 676million chance of getting a real code... Yes, with 95 million real codes in existence.

Do the extra 10 combinations make such a huge difference? With 12 letters, it has 50 times as many combinations. Make it 12 of a-z or 0-9 vs 13 just a-z and the alphanumeric is only twice as many codes. At 14 sets of digits (a-z) vs 12 sets of digits (a-z + 0-9) we suddenly have 13 times more combinations with our set of 14 digits.

So, would anyone here rather of had to enter two more letters rather than deal with numbers AND letters in the code? And just think, it'd be 13 times more secure at that!

Am I the only one who is still having the problem where you try to launch the game in Steam, it says it's preparing to launch it and then it disappears. I was getting the Failed to set up graphics card message, so I downloaded the Direct X update. But now it's just reverting to disappearing. The only aspect of my PC that didn't meet the initial spec was the graphic card- it's a Radeon 9250. Can this still be the problem even with the patch or am I doing something incredibly stupid. My version of the game is the Steam download, so I'm assuming I don't have to authenticate it. Any help would be greatly appreciated

SoftAnchor say there is a problem with their system. And they will post a solution on the forum.

This is useless man. I cannot believe it is so hard to do something which should be so easy. SoftAnchor doesn't work for me, Steam doesn't work for me and I live in Australia, so don't even know if i can ring someone to activate.

I would like the appropriate address (that's right, I'm sending a letter not an email, 1993 style) and a person (that's right, I'm swinging wild now) to whom I can register my disgust.
