Front office football draft bug?

cephalon · 10-31-2003, 11:44 AM

I recently purchased Front office Football, Fourth Edition... I have my files upgraded to the latest patch, 4.0c, but am having a strange bug... In the amateur draft, all of the players show up as Offensive Tackles... If I click on a players name, in the player screen it shows their actual position next to their name, but still only shows the offensive tackle skill ratings for that player.... What needs to be done to remedy this problem?

That sounds like a copy protection issue. Make sure you enter your registration info EXACTLY as it is written. (Most common mistake: last name is ALL lower case on the registration info, and should be entered that way.)

Congrats! You are user #3000.

Entering the registration data correctly, I suspect - this looks like Jim's copy protection at work. The most common error is the name, which is case-sensitive, usually this has to be all lower case, you can see this on your receipt.

Edit: damn I'm so slow...

Ah! Thank you! I had entered the serial number, but did not even realize that the name had to go with it as written... Thanks all.

hehe good thing you were user 3000.

SkyDog usually bans people for merely thinking of incorrectly registering the product.
