Linked steam games, cannot download no-steam.exe
Truth in advertising. I successfully linked steam and confirmed x3-AP (and all other expected games). I still get access denied via http://www.egosoft.com/download/x3ap/bo ... wnload=596
I've cleaned cache, nuked cookies (after ensuring they were enabled, via both silly popup and the bottom banner), logged out and in. Help would be welcome.

I know you said you tried to logged out and in, but would you please check and confirm again that when you're on the linked download page, the "Logout" button is displayed at the upper right corner?

Hey Illuminatus, thanks for the response.
I was actually worried about that but the symptoms are a bit weird.
From the linked page, I see "log in" as if I were not, but when I click it, I'm sent, logged in, to the forum page. I've tried going from there to the aformentioned link, but it once again says only "log in." (Clicking on it again will, once again, send me logged in with no prompt to the forum.)
I've done the similar pattern of ctrl+5+dev prompt cacheless refreshes on that page, cookie clears, same behavior. (Even tried from an incognito session)
Sorry if I'm being quite thick, let me know if the above isn't clear and I can screenshot.

When you log in into the forum / website, please make sure that the "Remember me" option is checked. Apparently that's required for accessing the downloads on the egosoft.com website.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but that's already set and confirmed. (I tried permutations of all the obvious flags)
My sanity check that I"m not making this up is that I was still logged in and able to reply when I got home from work today, from not having posted since the prior above.

Re: Linked steam games, cannot download no-steam.exe
I think I had the same problem, in that when I logged into the forum after accepting cookies on the pop up and the main page and checking the "remember me" box, and then using my browsers address bar to return to the main page, I was not logged in on that page, but I was able to go back to the main page while staying logged in by returning by clicking on a link to the main site in a forum post or in the nav bar.
So you have to get back the main page is a certain way to be logged in there?

AHA
I had a moment of clarity and figured the issue out. For progeny, here's how to solve this.
- Put "https://" before the address. It's that simple.
For site admins, you should kindly look at setting a default redirect to https or something to that effect, at least as a stopgap. (I'll send you my consulting rate )
