Do you still know where exactly you got that copy of Winplan32 from, so I can take a look?

I'm asking because a registration key consists of more than just the REG.KEY file, and I believe that there have been "jump-start bundles" with preloaded keys around.

The version at BitMask's site looks sane.

I got my version from Bitmask site. But as I said, from some reason unknown I was having crashes and TRN files not being accepted at C-M and High Command and had back up to previous versions until I was able to get TRN file accepted.

When I get home, I'll reload the lastest and greatest from Bitmask, redo my turn and see if that works out ok. Plus I'll check the screen to see what the registration screen says. You said there is more than just the REG.key file to registering WinPlan, is there something else I might be able check?

There's also a file SCRAM21.OLE which must match the REG.KEY, i.e. just swapping one file is not enough.

You have been using the same key for the whole game. It's snouka's registration number which changed, and I'm really interested in how that happened.

I have been using the same key and same version for several months at C-M, High Command and since I joined here.

If snouka was involved in the test game, it might be possible that while I was looking for a version of WinPlan 32 that would work, I copied a file that had some of his information in it. I'll copy the SCRAM21.OLE, from an old backup when I get home and see what happens.

This is a testing version.
It may be incomplete, and have more bugs (or features) than the public live version at planetscentral.com.
