Enter License Key on Big Sur (Mac)

[MattSilver]

Every time I launch OOTP 21 after having updated to Big Sur, it asks me to re-enter the license key, which is saved in the field, but it prevents me from actually playing half the time.

When this is happening it's usually that there's another program interfering with the game being able to communicate with the licensing servers. So the main thing to look is any other programs you may have installed that could be doing that. Things like anti-virus or anti-malware programs, VPN's etc. For any of these, make sure to add OOTP to their exceptions list.

If that doesn't do it, if you can open a ticket with support by sending a message to support@ootpdevelopments.com they can help you do some additional troubleshooting or find an alternate method of getting things going.
