Contact eLicense by filling out their form here: http://www.elicense.com/support-form.aspx . Based on the experience of myself and of others, they're very good at resetting licenses - they won't think you're scamming them.

They're really good at responding - usually by the next business day.

^^ I think its illegal to share licenses.

I have similar situation. Thought i already bought 2 licenses, i am using now the one belonging to my brother (he lost interes in playing the game, so hes not using it anymore). Sad news; i would surely buy a new one... But OK. We will survive. Looking forward to DABOs manager also.

Hello everyone, first of all I'm brand new here and this is my first post ever. Recently I began to play EHM 2007 and I'm hooked, I can't stop playing it for the life of me and I've been trying to find every single method to buy this awesome game, but after reading the boards I found out it's not longer available. I was wondering if anyone out there can help me, I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get this game, someone just needs to lead me in the right direction. I am willing to buy licenses off anyone if that is even possible, I'm really doing whatever it takes. Please help me out people!

Unfortunately, I think buying someone's licenses would be a bit risky. The problem with it is that the licenses are tied to an Order ID, and there's no guarantee that the seller doesn't have his licenses already activated, or has his Order ID written down to use in the future behind your back. Both cases would leave you without licenses, and no real way to prove that they now belong to you.

I think your best bet would be to try to grab a copy of EHM 2005 (Amazon). It's not "the latest and greatest" version, but it's still very good. If you can't get 2005, you could try finding EHM 2004 (Amazon). If that fails, then the freeware version is always a great option, which you can download for free Here.

Thanks for the quick response B. Stinson. If anyone knows of anyone with someone who has the license to EHM 2007 and is currently not using it I would like to speak with them please, I'm really addicted to this game and need the full version. I will be willing to do pretty much anything for a copy of this game!

Hey Flannigan. Welcome to TBL! :)

It's a real pain that EHM 07 is no longer on sale. Unfortunately I'm 99% certain that selling licenses is unlawful. In any event, there are big risks of being conned out of money here (as Stinson pointed out). Hence I don't think any such agreement or transaction should take place on TBL.

A new hockey game by OOTP Developments is coming out next year so hopefully this is some good news for you. In the mean time, you could grab a copy of EHM 2005 from somewhere like Amazon/eBay or simply download the demo and join in with the DMHNL online league.

Thank you guys both for the advice! I may pick up a copy of EHM 2005, or wait for the OOTP version. Once again, thank you both.

First of, I am so sad to read that this game is not on sale anymore, I am so glad I ever bought this game, it was probably my best invest in a game ever.

Second, I have read that a few people have emailed elicense about their license not working anymore. I did that and they sent me back an email within a few minutes, giving me a ticket number, am I supposed to email them back again with that ticket number with my mail after, or did they actually read it and are working on my case?

Thanks for the help

I actually have a CD with a license that I purchased some time ago, just got a new computer , tried to install it, and the license isn't working. I am assuming it is because you were/are only allowed 3 licenses per purchase?? Or is there a way to get around this?

Please let me know ASAP as Id like to play on the new PC.

Thank you, I did fill out that form, as well as sent an email to both SI games and eLicense, so hopefully this will work.
I must be one of only a few people who actually have the Install CD with the order number printed right on the CD that I purchased, since I didn't do the online install!

How long did it take you to get a response with a license that worked? After you got the automated email with a ticket number?

I have seen them respond in 1-2 days, and up to 7. Never longer than that.

Well I went out on a limb, since I had the CD, i just purchased again, since I probably ran out of licenses, so I was able to purchase again. Kind of odd, but since i got the new computer I want to play it THAT badly!
Now, the downloads of all the rosters updates and pictures, etc....where to begin!?!? its been so long!

The makers were kind enough to send me a free box copy of 2007 and said it was for PC and mac since I own a mac. Unfortunately, they mailed me a PC copy. I'm not going to buy a PC just to play the game, but if anyone has a mac copy, I'd be happy to trade the pc copy of 2007 as I'm really wanting to play past the 6 month demo! :-k

I've said this many times before, but if you own the PC version of the game but have an Apple Mac then try CrossOver Mac: http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi ... 89#p122689

In addition, I believe this is the only option for Mac users, since the Mac version was "cut" and can't be licensed anymore.

Getting hold of the game

Post by PRB »

Hi,

I had got away from playing EHM 2007 for a year or more until recently when I was starting to get back into it. I've since got a new Mac computer and have a demo version of EHM 2007 but want to get back the full game. I know it's no longer on sale, but is there anywhere I can download a full version of the game or am I resigned to playing it on my old, slow, dying laptop?

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

You'll have to play it on your old laptop or buy a new pc laptop.
