I have been trying to transfer my registered versiion of EVO to a different computer via floppies. I have transferred the entire foder and the game runs, but it is an unregistered version. Is there some other file that must be transferred? Is there a way to look up the registration number in the file with resedit or something like that? I registered it years ago, and havent played it for quite a whil so I dont remember the email used or anything.

Ahh floppies. The breakfast of champions.

Try copying your prefs file, along with any other override related file in your prefs folder, onto the new machine. Failing that... umm...

Run a copy of Timbucktoo on both machines and...

Okay, someone competent explain if there's a way to res-hack the code out of the file.

It would be easier, if you remember the emailadress/card number you registered the game with. Make ambrosia send you a new code.

He can't. His code was registered under an email he doesn't have access to anymore.

Remove everything VISIBLE from the Prefs folder, excepting everything EV-related. Your registration file will be preserved... whichever invisible it may be. IDK, I'm not an assembly-level haxor.

Now I feel like an idiot for not realizing there was a file called "ev override registration" in the prefs folder.

Anyway, I transferred it and it worked. Thanks for all you guys' help.
