Saizou Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 That's pretty bad if you didn't save a copy of your etkey somewhere safe, cause there's no way to regain your XP without it. If you did save a copy of it just put it into etmain folder (thus replacing your new etkey) and you'll have your XP and admin level (if you had it) back.

Kronos Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 oh my god, i didn't even know anything about the key thing i had over 81k XP thanks for fast respond, but would you please tell me how to get the key? thank you Get it off your old hard drive. Not sure if that would be possible though. If so, then find your Wolftenstein Enemy Territory folder, go into etmain, and copy the etkey onto a flash drive or something and move it to current hard drive.

Saizou Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Well when you connect to a server (any server) for a first time after installing the game you are assigned a GUID which is stored in that etkey file, which means there aren't two same etkey files, so if you didn't save a copy of your etkey with which you played before computer crashed there is no way of getting it back (or getting XP back). If you lost it you should post your new GUID in forums profile. And always have a backup of etkey you are using, cause you'll have to copy it into every new installation or another computer you are using (so people will know it is you playing and not someone else). EDIT: All this above is presumed that you can't get it off your old hard drive. If you can, just do as Kronos said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krauersaut Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 well my boyfriend took out the old hard drive and banged to the wall oh thanks , but how do i get that key? i went to the folder but i cant open the ETkey, its unknown format and one more thing, should i keep the key as secret or post it on my profile? You should copy the whole file. It's a binary file which means you can't read it with your Notepad, but ET could. I would suggest keeping it private since anyone using that etkey would have your admin levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
