So I started to download the .bat file, and upon running it, it started downloading a 500 meg file - which I assume is the A-10C assets. For some reason, I thought that all the modules did was unlock stuff already installed. For 500 megs, I'll just be content with the Frogfoot until the end of the period, then uninstall +reinstall everything then. Thanks for the replies, guys!

I am logged on to both the site and the module manager, with no notifications that I can install the new module. Instead, I'm given a buy option that sends me to a link in my browser to the Steam store. I did check the serial number and it is already bound to my account. My guess is that there's a difference between the regular DCS module manager and the Steam-flavored module manager. I'm trying to find out what exactly is the difference with support now, but I'm open to more suggestions. Odds are I'll just re-download the entire thing again.

Okay so I transferred the steam files over and ran the repair utility with command prompt, and I can play the game. I went ahead and purchased the A-10C module from the site. However, the main menu doesn't recognize the purchase. Furthermore, when I hit the "buy" option for the A-10C in game, it takes me to the steam store. My guess is that it's a separate module. Perhaps deleting that and repairing to get the right module? I'll try that next. Also, is there any way to increase the time before auto-log off? I didn't have time to post the above before logging me out. Thank goodness for copy-paste.

Okay sounds good, I'll try that tonight. Thanks! :D

Hello, new to the forum here. DCS marks the first actual flight sim I've played in quite a few years. The only flight sim I've played was Microsoft Flight Simulator 3, being more interested in a sci-fi experience at the time. But I've always had a place for playing with big military vehicles, and kept Arma 3 up to date just to fly helis and drive tanks. I saw DCS as a result of a post on a forum, and put it in my Steam wishlist. As I was pa-rousing my wishlist recently, I saw DCS and decided to install. Now, I've made it through all the tutorials for the Frogfoot (stuck the landing at night - first try! :D ). Hope to eventually tackle the A-10.

Hello, new user here I installed DCS from Steam, and am greatly enjoying learning how to fly the Frogfoot. Later, I'd like to eventually get into an A-10 and possibly some others. With this in mind, I realize that Steam gets a cut from all purchases, and in this instance, since DCS is available outside of steam, I'd like to purchase directly from here (assuming that the devs get more money this way ;)). Unfortunately, I have a metered internet connection. I was wondering if it was possible to 'cheat' the installation by using the already downloaded steam assets to the new installation folder. The whole reason I want to do this is because all the modules from the store have great big "Steam Incompatible" signs everywhere. If anybody done this before or knows if it's possible I'd appreciate the info. Thanks! :)
