IIRC, the serial number was printed in the subsequent edition of Amiga Format.

It was also available on the CU Amiga website for a while, but was later removed. My guess is that since Maxon are still around - although no longer supporting the Amiga, and certainly not the free CU Amiga copy - it would be their call to make.

I remember that when I asked them for that very same serial number a while back they simply replied saying that Amiga support was no longer available.  Since it is a free copy, I guess they can't be blamed.

@JaX

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the C4D issue of CU Amiga the last one ever?

This is what caused the confusion, as normally this kind of situation would be solved by publishing the missing information in the next issue. In the case of CU Amiga, there was no next issue, unless my memory is playing tricks on me.

Yes, you're right about the C4D installer on the CD. It did not work properly and a separate one was made available later on the CU Amiga website (which survived for a while after the mag died)

I believe you are right.

Certainly Maxon themselves do not give out the serial any more ( I tried).
