To my knowledge, Arrowbridge I and II are now freeware.

Where do I get the registration keys from ?

Google's a dead end on this one.

Do you have registered versions ?

worked for me when i went looking some time ago...

Do you have registered versions ?

i purchased AB-I shortly after it was introduced... AB-I is freeware as of v1.40 and it still recognises valid registration codes if one has such... AFAIK, no reg keys are needed...

AB-II is now free... a key set was posted from the author's redaxe site back in 2003, though...

https://fidonet.ozzmosis.com/echomail.php/arrowbridge/9da125a52496c8fc.html

i do know that you don't want to hack it or run hacked version because it will protect itself like a lot of other software will do that's been hacked...

i'm not sure what happened with mark's redaxe site but it looks like it has been taken over by some other company... the ab2 links that point there are 404... [time passes] after further digging, i find that the software available at redaxe is software that mark wrote and released... at least from what i can see, he did the cricketstatz program and some more digging turns up that he apparently kept the redaxe site for his new private company "red axe pty ltd" in 2010...

http://abnreport.com.au/abnlookup/15098096460-mark-sinclair http://abnreport.com.au/abnlookup/93144547982-red-axe-pty-ltd


here's are some browser based MMORPGs that mark also wrote... http://www.tombmaster.com/ - published 2000
http://www.timehunter.com/ - published 2002
http://www.dragontide.com/ - published 2005


so now after 2+ hours of digging, i quit...

Yes. I remember RedAxe now.

I searched for a while and never came up with RedAxe. The association between

Arrow Bridge and RedAxe must be extinct in the Google database.

Hmm. Maybe my problem was attempting to enter bogus registration details. If

that is the case, then the software should at least indicate a failure
instead
of letting people play crippleware.

so now after 2+ hours of digging, i quit...

Thanks for the help. I will check out those links.

i'm running the latest of both AB-I and AB-II, yes... my AB-I is using my existing reg keys, though... if you follow up on those links, perhaps you will contact mark sinclair and ask what should be used in AB-I v1.40 for the reg keys... if you get a response, it would be nice to post it back in here for others who may be looking for the same information ;)

try the proper Arrowbridge spelling with no space in it ;) plus redaxe, as i noted previously, seems to have changed directions... it used to be where mark's redaxe game was hosted but now it seems to be a portal for his software company...

nope because that gives hackers an indication if they were successful or not...
