Recovering my old DW?

Enigma · 01-06-09, 07:51 PM

I purchased DW from sonalysts a couple of years ago. I wasn't able to find the answer on their website, but...

Since I downloaded my version, is there a way I can go back and download my copy again? I have since purchased a new machine, and would like to get back in to DW, but I don't want to pay for it again...

Thanks,

I think you just get Steam, put in your old account and password, and download the thing again.

If you got it from Strategy First then I think you just have to contact their customer support with some sort of payment verification and then you can download it from their website again. If you bought/downloaded it from Battlefront then you better contact SCS directly because you might be in for some trouble (due to the fact that BF doesnt sell DW anymore and hasnt done so for a considerable amount of time).

Geez. I don't know where the hell I got it.

Oh well. I hear it's $10 at Target these days!

Digital Downloads are usually pretty short lived, unless you backup to CD. They don't keep the stream open for more than a week on most sites.

You're better off browsing the discount bins or searching Amazon and such.
