Taken from FAQ of GMax (usefull things that no one reads, except the developer)

Q: i am having trouble downloading the gmax file from discreet

A: you might try downloading the gmax files from one of the web sites that have also posted the files for download. currently, two such sites are http://www.fileplanet.com and http://www.id8media.com

if you are using a download assistance program, like gozilla, some users have seen the download never stop (for example, the download continues to download 30MB, 40MB, 50MB etc...of files) then disable your download software and try again.

if you get a file corrupt or header corrupt message on unzipping the file , do a virus check. If nothing turns up , try re-downloading the file.

the gmax installer file, once downloaded, should be 21.4 MB

Q: gmax installation and troubleshooting guide

A: The current version of gmax is version 1.1 which was released on February 20, 2002. gmax version 1.1 is easily identified by looking at the splash screen—“version 1.1” will appear in the lower left hand corner. To date there are approximately 16K registered users of gmax version 1.1.

gmax version 1.0 was released on September 27, 2001. There are approximately 100K users that have registered gmax v1.0. gmax v1.0 is currently available from the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 Professional Edition and several other demo disks bundled with various magazines. gmax version 1.0 will remain in circulation for the foreseeable future, and it will be necessary to continue to provide an easy upgrade pathway for these users.

This document will provide installation and upgrade troubleshooting information for gmax users.

1. Users may experience unpredictable results when installing gmax version 1.1 over an existing installation of gmax version 1.0. For best results, follow these guidelines:
a. Before installing gmax version 1.1, make a backup of everything in your current gmax\gamepacks and gmax\scenes directories.
b. Use the Windows Control Panel “Add/Remove Programs” to uninstall gmax version 1.0 prior to installing gmax version 1.1
c. Before installing gmax version 1.1, quit any other running applications.
d. Make sure your system meets the minimum system requirements listed at http://www.discreet.com/products/gmax/gmaxconsumer/gmax_downloads.html
e. If you are installing gmax from a CD, remove any other installation of gmax using the methods above prior to installing the new version of gmax.

2. As a general rule, to register gmax Discreet requires that you:
a. Use Internet Explorer version 5.0 and above and that your
b. Configure Internet Explorer to accept “Cookies” (Cookies = enabled)
c. Do not delete the “cookie” that is written by www.discreet.com
d. Do not alter or modify the cookie

gmax version 1.1 includes a new mechanism to help troubleshoot installations. When gmax starts, a window may appear with a 3 digit code in the window label. These 3 digit codes appear in every dialog except the initial “You need to register this copy of gmax” dialog and the “Have you visited www.discreet.com?” dialog, which is activated and displayed on occasion.

Below are list of the 3 digit codes. Refer to these to help resolve gmax registration issues.

1. 001, 006, 007 = Bad Cookie
a. To fix this condition the gmax user should go to www.discreet.com/products/gmax/register and enter the email address and password that was mailed to them as part of the original gmax registration process. If users are unable to find the registration information that was sent to them as part of their original gmax registration, users are advised to re-register their copy of gmax. (Please see the notice about registration at bottom of page).

2. 003 = Missing Cookie
a. To fix this condition the gmax user should go to www.discreet.com/products/gmax/register and enter the email address and password that was mailed to them as part of the original gmax registration process. If users are unable to find the registration information that was sent to them as part of their original gmax registration, users are advised to re-register their copy of gmax. (Please see the notice about registration at bottom of page).

3. 004 = Cookie from obsolete gmax version found
a. This dialog message will display when upgrading from gmax version 1.0 to gmax version 1.1 is not necessarily an error message. To clear this message, users should click the link which will direct them to www.discreet.com/products/gmax/register. Users must visit this internet address with Internet Explorer version 5.0 or above. If requested, the user may need to enter their registered email address and password to complete the upgrade process.

4. 005 = Cookie from future gmax version found
a. To fix this condition the gmax user should go to www.discreet.com/products/gmax and check for updates to gmax.

Notice about registration
Occasionally users may not be able to register any version of gmax—typically this situation is the result of attempting to register with an email address that has already been entered into the registration database. Discreet is aware of this issue and is working on a solution. As a workaround users may wish to register gmax using an alternate valid email address. After the registration process is completed gmax registration information will be sent to this address. Make sure to save this information as you may need it in the future.

Ok, so write, with the most details possible, what happens when you open the GMAX? The logo appears? The popup asking you to register appears? And what happen then?

Maxim, does your browser intercepts cookies from Discreet? If yes, set discreet to your safe sites in Internet Explorer settings...

you cant do it fro him, Terror. Because the GMAX reads a cookie in his computer that will say if he has registered or not.

Check the thing below carefully:

Quote:
Registration of gmax on multiple PCs for a single user can be accomplished using the registration password that is automatically emailed to a new gmax registrant after their initial gmax on-line web registration. Entering the identical email address and the e-mailed gmax password on the gmax registration web form during successive installations will generate a valid registration that is identical on all machines. A valid e-mail address is required during initial registration to ensure receipt of the password and to register multiple installations of gmax per user.

During gmax on-line web registration, as with many web sites that utilize login or registration information, a browser "cookie" is written by Discreet's servers onto each user's PC, containing basic gmax registration information. Afterwards, during normal use, gmax reads from the browser cookie at launch to determine registration status. Proper registration information in the browser cookie allows gmax to run without delay.

Because gmax relies on browser cookies for initial registration, "cookie cleanup" (deletion of browser cookies by a user) will affect gmax operation. If a user removes gmax registration browser cookies after a valid on-line web registration session, gmax will continue to operate, but it will post a passive notice each time it is launched, reminding the user that their registration is incomplete. gmax will continue to run normally in this case. To repair an incomplete registration, gmax on-line web registration provides for easy recovery: by using the gmax registration password sent to each new gmax registrant's e-mail address during initial gmax on-line web registration, a gmax user can quickly regenerate a valid browser cookie on any internet-connected machine (as described above for multiple PC registrations).

Discreet collects gmax registration data for statistical use and to help facilitate gmax user services and future product developments. gmax registration data is a vital part of Discreet's ability to offer gmax to consumers for no charge. Discreet respects gmax user privacy and individual preferences for the use of gmax registration data


Found at http://www.discreet.com/products/gmax/gmaxconsumer/registration_policy_text.html

The link to register is:

http://www.discreet.com/products/gmax/register/gmax_form.html?version=v1.20

Good luck!

Use one of the valid passwords and one of the valid email in the registration and see if it opens GMAX with the IE window opened.
