Riddler Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Let me first say that I'm sorry if this is the wrong section of the forum to be posting in. So, I paid into the standard preorder a while back and directly downloaded 14.1 (or something like that) of Xenonauts. It actually worked well and good (it was quite enjoyable, of course) so no worries there. The issue came with me trying to connect it to Desura. Namely, it -is- connected with Desura, but it does not acknowledge me as owning it. The sidebar on both the Desura client and website simply has a buy button. Is this normal, or is it just acting up on me? I was, however, more than able to link it from Desura to my forum profile. This is my first time posting on the forums, mostly because I just lurk in the backgrounds, but I wanted to get it all settled out for the v16 that's coming along. Is there any way that I can avoid having to pay for the alpha again? I wouldn't mind, as it is more than worth the money as it stands now, but I certainly would avoid it if I could. That all aside, this really is a great game! I grew up with X-Com so, after years and years, it is awesome to have something that (in my mind) is even an better build of it. So, thanks for the help!

Gorlom Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 (edited) I guess the standlone zip file should be available still. Have you looked at the thread "how to download without using Desura"? Edited October 13, 2012 by Gorlom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dowly Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 I guess the standlone zip file should be available still. Have you looked at the thread "how to download without using Desura"? Every PC version has been taken down from what I can tell. Wonder if there's a problem of some sort... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzles Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Every PC version has been taken down from what I can tell. Wonder if there's a problem of some sort... Yea, it's called an update. V16 has been uploaded and Desura are about to release it after they verify it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangermouth Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Tomorrow then. Nothing as yet. Which is better than it being a cork up with Desura. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riddler Posted October 13, 2012 Author Share Posted October 13, 2012 Hrm. I did check the link for downloading the standalone but, yet again, it has tabs for buying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just the premium preorder? Check your cookies. make sure you are logged on to desura etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riddler Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 I am logged on, cookies are allowed through Desura, and it even picks up that I have Xenonauts. It simply has every button as a "Buy" instead of download. In complete contrast is the blue button on the top which, of course, says "Play Game" and brings me to a popup on whether I need to install Desura or am ready to play. Clicking ready to play brings up the client and launch menu as per usual. Odd and very confusing to me. Maybe I screwed something up in the buying process?
