Author Topic: Authentication: Validating Key...  (Read 3601 times)

So, two days ago, I took my computer into Best Buy because of some weird symptoms. Apparently, it got a major virus infestation, and in order to weed it out, they'd need to take it into the shop for 1-3 weeks. I agreed.

Then, I pulled out my old Vista - a Toshiba Satellite M505-S4940. It wasn't a gaming laptop, but hell, it could run Steam and Blockland - that was all I needed for the moment.
Steam worked fine.

When I tried launching Blockland, I found it was no longer on the computer - I must've uninstalled it. I downloaded the v19 installer and launched it.

I tried loading Multiplayer, only to be met with "connection failed" - I couldn't see any servers on the list, and the error message told me I wasn't connected to the internet.
"Ah," I thought, "I forgot to put in my key."

I loaded up my old email and retrieved the "key recovery" email - I copied and pasted my key into the authentication window.

"Full version unlocked!"
"Authenticating Key..."

It's been like that for two days. I don't know what's going on. My computer allowed Blockland to connect to the internet just last year, so it isn't a firewall problem.

Can anyone help?



Also, in console:

It looks like blockland is corrupt. Try reinstalling.

I've reinstalled several times.

Ok, an addon may be causing this. Do you have something like RTB?

I just told you, I've reinstalled several times, which means that it didn't carry over ANY addons, maps or saves, much to my dismay in fact.

An addon is not causing this. I'm running a fresh, vanilla copy.

Restart your connection or renew your lease.



Right click your Wireless Network icon and press Repair.

If that doesn't work, restart your router.


Restarted my connection = didn't work. If this was a problem with my internet, I couldn't go on blockland forums and ask for help, could I.

Repair = Tells me there are no problems visible with my computer - I had blockland open and running at the time of the scan, so it would've detected a problem with it.

Router = Nothing. As stated earlier, it's not the most likely that I have an internet problem. My other computer was on the same network and it could connect to Blockland fine - it's this computer.


Lemmie guess, the fey randomly fails and validates forever. When you re-open Blockland it asks for the key each time right?

Yes, I have the exact same problem. What the hell happened?

I like how he got the same stupid answers saying what has been said several times.
