I can't get LFS 0.6r unlocked, firewall was set to allow LFS. As said in title, I bought S3 License few days ago, but it's impossible to get it unlocked.
This is the wrong part - you should use GAMEpassword to unlock,set it under personal details,you can get there by clicking on your username on the top of this page.
go start -> run... type services.msc and hit [enter] on your keyboard, search for Windows Firewall in that list, turn off (stop) completely for a moment. (click on entry -> stop button).
Just to make sure (if you were using some other ways to play LFS before), you have the official lfs.exe downloaded from lfs.net? Also can't it be you have modified /etc/hosts file (not sure where it is in windows) rerouting the lfs.exe to wrong master server IP?
Plus you may want to check this thread for some additional hints how to get more information:
because the videos have non-demo content before having bought license and that makes modified game seem likely cause.
(wrong password would have given different message)
How gullible can you be? He literally said he bought his S3 licence a few days ago, fair enough, he could have another account but if he had a bloody account before this one then why would he buy another? Yeah, maybe he just wanted to support the devs but if he wanted to do that then why didn't he buy it in the first place or if he was administrating a race with two instances of LFS so he could check for people going over the pit lane line, oh, wait, i haven't seen any race at all with this guy as an admin.... He probably has a modified hosts file, which, would mean that he can't get into the legit master server.
It could be a network problem but how would he post here? Maybe on phone but surely he would know if he had rubbish/no connection from not being able to access google or any other website for that matter.
lfs.exe was downloaded from this page and it installed the demo version of LFS. After playing 15/30min in order to check that G27 was well set up, I came back to lfs.net and bought S3 License (bought it on Feb 01st).
After that I couldn't unlock it any more.
Guys, as a reply to above quotes, yes. That channel you are looking at YT (MrJoelAlonso) was made 7/8 years ago, and those vids you were looking at were made using a cracked version of LFS. That YT account is no longer being updated by me or anyone else.
Nowadays running a complete different PC (in fact on Feb 01st was the FIRST time LFS was installed in the PC I currrently use), my goal is to support devs to develope new contents and to support their efforts in keeping game up to date as I'm doing with Assetto Corsa, pCars, Automobilista and 10 other differents sims I bought via Steam.
Ped, many thanks once again, will try that and lets see what happens.
Once again, many thanks guys for taking the time for reply in the thread and for taking this up.
