Author Topic: i lost my key  (Read 1839 times)

im hosting, then I go down stairs to eat lunch, I come back and see my authentication failed and I try to join a server, and it didn't work so I closed BL, open it again and it asks for my key. I deleted my old email address (the one I used to buy bl) and the email was gone. I uninstalled BL and that didn't work. What the forget is happening? I don't want to loose my key because of a loving authentication error.

I uninstalled BL and that didn't work.

do you still have key.dat? a way to reactivate the email? saved the key in a file or email like a normal person would?

do you still have key.dat? Yes. a way to reactivate the email?No. saved the key in a file or email like a normal person would?Sadly, No.


I don't know if I have to open the key.dat file, because it says windows cannot open this file

nvm, I found out how to open it, but how do I decrypt it?


IIRC I think trinick made a tool to do that
you could ask him

his requires you to have 2 keys, I only have 1

If you put the key.dat in your blockland folder next to blockland.exe, does it work?

it already is in my blockland folder?

BACK UP YOUR KEY.DAT FIRST - COPY IT SOMEWHERE OUTSIDE OF THE BLOCKLAND FOLDER
then read every single word I posted in this topic, you might not need 2 keys: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=254327.0
follow the instructions I gave dodger, you can probably get your key back

blah
If blockland fails to athenticate his key.dat, as
it already is in my blockland folder?
then that does not work.

You're out of luck.

the all a's thing didn't work, it said invalid key. if I use trinick's trick, and put in the a's and it says invalid key, would it still work?

Well what you're supposed to do is:

put your key.dat somewhere
start bl
enter aaaaaa as key
copy new key.dat from blockland folder to somewhere

then use both key.dats and aaaaaa as known key

it will not get a correct key but it might get close with only a few letters off
