Sea Lion doesn't work

Post by truth80 »

I installed the new DLC twice already. It's in the DLC root but I can't find it in the DLC list when I open Panzer Corps. Have I done something wrong? Could someone help?

Sealion is with the Grand Campaigns. When you start a new game go tot eh dossier on the right and look for Sealion at the bottom of the list.

Hello! Thanks, yeah that's exactly I tried.

After the installation subfolder "Sealion" appears in the DLC on my drive but I don't see as selectable campaign. I checked, the update 1.24 has been installed so it can't be the problem.

The Sealion folder appears when you patch. You only get Sealion unlocked in game when you have it installed. Try running the Sealion installer again and make sure you enter the sealion serial.

I downloaded the file again and enter my password manually (not copy paste) but the same issue exists. Could this be that it doesn't work with the steam version?

When you have or use the Steam version, Steam automatically will update/patch your game, if you have problems try repairing your game cache:

See in this video how to verify and repair your game in Steam:

After this just restart your game in Steam and check, it should have solved any corrupt or wrong installations and solve any Steam issues.

Thanks! I tried it, it said some files had to be acquired. Afterwards I ran the verification once again then it said all files have been successfully validated. The SL still does not appear in the GC list :(

Today I uninstalled and reinstalled the entire PC but the problem still exists.

I'm total confused :( What should I do exactly, maybe it's just a minor step?
- Download the PanzerCorps_Sealion_DLC11.exe
- Install it to PC/DLC subfolder
- Run the game, choose More campaign

Did I do something wrong? I just found, after installation of SL there is a Sealion subfolder (as usual) and an additional "Uninstall" folder containing two jpg, one dat and an xml file under PC/DLC folder. Is that correct?

Hi,

I had this same problem. I´m using Steam version on my other computer and normal version on the other. For normal version problem got fixed when I reinstalled and used Sealions own serial number. For some reason at first installation game chose vanilla game serial and I had the same problem that you have. You can see your serials in My Page at Slitherine website.

You seem to be using Steam version. I had no problems with Steam. I bought the game from Slitherine site, created Steam serial and activated it on Steam. Steam automaticly updated th game. For me Sealion appeared after the update.

Hope this helps.

Best regards

Timpo

Hi! I also bought from Slitherine site and used the received serial. Should I create a Steam serial with that? I have never done this before (and I don't know how to do). There is no registered serials in My Page :(

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

Check this thread for creating Steam key:

viewtopic.php?f=121&t=48814

First you have to register your serial at My Page and then you can create Steam key. After that you go to Steam -> Games -> Activte a Product on Steam... and give it your new Steam key. Game should activate in Steam and update automaticly unles you have switched auto update off.

Yess! This has resolved the problem :) I was not aware of the difference between the normal and Steam serials. I have only PC on Steam :) Thanks everyone for the efforts and the great support!
