Need some way to get my Blockland key back so I can host a dedicated server.

[Epiphany]

Hey everybody. I've owned Blockland for a long time now, and it seems I have finally lost the last instance of my Blockland key. I can still play the game, since my key was linked to my steam account a while back, but now I find myself in need of a dedicated server to host from home and from what I understand this is not possible with the steam version of the game. I have PM'd and emailed Badspot about this issue, but I'm not sure if he gets them or what.

Thanks for any help.

Can you still access the email you used when you bought it? Then it's easy. https://blockland.us/keyRecovery.php

If not, do you still have a working copy of blockland somewhere with the key.dat?

He can only resend the key email to the original email you bought the game on. If you happen to have a non-steam working copy of BL somewhere, you can use keyutils to retrieve it.

Yeah that's the problem... I bought the game when I was like 12, and was using an email that I perhaps don't even remember the name of, let alone the password. I may possibly have a Blockland folder from back in the day with a key.dat somewhere on a friend's external hard drive. I thought about that but figured it would not be as easy as just using the dat file.

Sweet, I had no idea something like this existed. I will dig around for old stuff and see if I can't find a Blockland instance from the past.

You need to have both the old key.dat and the computer that generated it. (Specifically, the mac address and cpu name)

If it's from an old computer you'll have to dig that out again, otherwise it won't help either

Ahh.. Well in that case I may be out of luck. No chance of recovering my old computers.
