Hi,

I recently bought Overgrowth on Steam, but i see no option to view my CD key, and thus i can not get into the SPF. Is there any other way to find it?

What operating system are you on?

I have heard that a few people on Macs had that issue. As far as I know Steam is aware of the problem, but hasn't been able to fix it so far.

Some people have been able to see the option after restarting their Steam client. If that doesn't work, you'd have to try using the client on a different computer. Maybe one of your friends has Steam and could let you check your profile to write down the code.

I'm running Windows 8.1, and i have tried checking in on Steam on my parents' PC, which also showed no CD Key option.

I've run into a problem where it says I don't have permission to access the secret preorder forum even though I bought this game and have it on steam and I have had it for 3 years now! What's wrong with the forum?

Do you have your SPF key?
You need to verify your account to get access, as described in the first post. You don't just gain access automatically when you buy the game.

You are not supposed to go to this URL.

Code: Select all

https://www.humblebundle.com/s?key=YOURCDKEY
You are supposed to copy it and replace the YOURCDKEY-part with your actual CD Key.

That sounds like an issue related to your system. What operating system are you on and what are your hardware specs, specifically the graphics card?

Something slightly different: could you maybe use punctuation? It's kind of tough to make sense of what you are saying when it's all one huge run-on sentence.

Are you sure you are using the right email address and that the messages don't end up in your spam folder?

This is a problem on Valve's side, not Wolfire. If I were you,I'd contact Steam support and tell them to get their asses in motion and shoot Wolfire an email about it. The devs will probably be able to get you access to your SPF key, but there's no guarantee that they will see it in this thread.

EDIT: Here's some things you can try out to get it to work.

That's because you aren't reading that step correctly.
You are not supposed to paste that link into your address bar and go to it. You are supposed to paste it into your address bar, replace the YOURCDKEY-part with your CD-key and then go to that unique address.

This is getting asked in this thread on every single page. How do people not get this?
