  1. I originally downloaded the English version for $49 US Dollars a year ago and I still have the Proof of Purchase from Flaming Cliffs in a folder in my yahoo account and I have forwarded the purchase proof email to activate@digitalcombatsimulators....etc asking if they could help me, but here are the steps that I took. 1. Using the HP "Recovering Dics" OR "Internal Harddrive Backup" I had to reinstall Windows Vista to the orginal state of when I had the computer when I first purchased it because of Operating System Issues. 2. I Installed Black Shark on the oringal install of the OS that had to be wiped out because of the OS issues. 3. I kept the original Black Shark "setup.exe" and whole file directory download from the DCS Website on a Back Up drive and "Ran the setup.exe" after the Re-install of Vista. 4. The install of Black Shark was succesfull and I went to click on the "Black Shark Executable Shortcut" on my desktop and got the "Please enter your Serial Number/Activation Key". 5. I do have access to the https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php Account that I downloaded from originally so I wen to File/Products and still have Access to the "Setup.exe" to download again, as well as access to the ".cab" download as well. 6. I tried copying and pasting both "Serial Numbers" that are listed under File/Products at https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php into the "Field" where it keeps asking for my "Serial Number" to activate the game, but neither of them work. Should I "De-activate" the Game Install via the pop up box that appears, or should I "download" again the "Setup.exe" from https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php and the ".cab" again, then re-enter the Serial number? Thanks for you help everyone in advance!!! Peter
  2. I can't get to the following link or get to any links that shows up during a google search. http://cougar.frugalsworld.com/ Help a brother out!!!!!!! Thanks!!!!!!!!
  3. My fire button works via the "windows control panel" and via the Cougar Control Panel (I have the Cougar HOTAS Cyclic and Throttle), but not in Black Shark. Any ideas?
  4. How do you reverse the Throttle and Cyclic forward/backward Axis? (mine is going in the wrong direction for both Cyclic and Throttle). Thanks.
  5. I Have Cougar HOTAS, and I am not sure if my setup is the way that it should be. Cyclic: Whenever I "pull back" on the cyclic, the game Throttle on the screen "Moves forward" (left and right follow the same pattern as on the screen, when I roll left, the cyclic on BS throttle on the computer screen pulls left, and same for the right...) Is this the way it should be? If not, how can I reverse it? Via my Cougar HOTAS Control Panel? Also, the same X and Y axis problem with the Throttle? When I move forward on the actual Cougar Throttle, the Throttle in the game does the opposite, by "moving back"...let me know, Thanks!

  7. Update I was able to re-install BS successfully last night, but I was not able to test it because I was still burning a DVD by the time I went to bed, so I couldn't reboot, test it. If the problem continues, I will post what my system hardware and software consists of. I'll test it tonight and let you guys know! Thanks!
  8. Hey Distiler, I am Launching via the Icon for Black Shark on the Desktop of my PC. Also, for those that help me with Catalyst ATI driver information fixes, I just wanted you to know that I have a Nvidia GTX Pro 8500 Graphics Card.
  9. Just for clarification, do you think I have a Catalyst AI Video Card? I do not. I have a Nvidia GTX Pri 8500 Video Card. Let me know if your advice is related to that. Thanks!
  10. Sorry Moderators for posting the message below as an addition to a previous thread by accident, I don't know how that one slipped through: Here is the post in a new Thread: ...a few days ago, after going through the following steps below, I get the same error message as the original problem with a "Launcher.exe is not working" error. See all of my posts and you will see which one (most recent post). 1. Went through using the "uninstall utility" that comes with BS. 2. Deleted the "C:\Programs Files\Eagle Dynamics" folder 3. Rebooted PC 4. Re-installed BS 5. Same "Launcher.exe is not working error". Should I keep trying to re-install it over and over again?

  14. I get this message after Black Shark worked for a month. Now I click on the Launcher.exe and I get the message "Launcher.exe has stopped working" over and over again after rebooting my PC, I keep trying....time for a re-install? Only installed Black Shark once....what is this I hear about "re-activation/re-install limit on # of times you can install? Thank you.
  15. :surrender:Just curious...... is complete cockpit control available during "Instant Action" campaigns? I am thinking that it might not be controllable (cockpit buttons/dials) because "Instant Action" is for those that don't know what they are doing :helpsmilie::cry::unsure:
  16. Is it possible to copy someone's .lua file into my designated/correct directory, so ease the use of programming my Foxy and Options/Control for my Cougar HOTAS (Axis and buttom programming etc.)
  17. Based on the link below to a discussion I started on the Cougar HOTAS discussion page: http://forums.frugalsworld.com/vbb/showthread.php?p=1651795&posted=1#post1651795 I have the Alas 13 Foxy .TMJ pre-made/downloaded button setup for my Cougar HOTAS.

  18. Courage Under Fire with Meg Ryan had some American helicopter fighters ( I forget the type in it, but it wasn't Apache ).
  19. Hey Dark Eagle, I'm new and am not ready, but will be in a few weeks. Cheers - P
  20. Anyone want to Multiplayer with me? email to peterjohnkerner@yahoo.com
  21. This is my Graphic Card (for now) http://www.nvidia.com/object/geforce_8500.html And my system is this: http://reviews.cnet.com/desktops/hp-pavilion-media-center/4507-3118_7-32814502.html?tag=rnav The graphic card came by default with the PC. Will this graphic card do the job?
  22. How about this Graphic Card? (see link) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130434
  23. What about Black Shark? You obviously don't play it on your laptop, right? Do you play DCS Black Shark your 56" inch flatscreen?
  24. Regarding the thread I started below. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=39436 I am wondering if I should get a Graphic Card with a HDMI output rather than DVI output (that comes with a extra DVI to HDMI cable), and if it matters or not with possible complications of this setup (because I will be connecting my PC to a HDMI input onto a plasma tv). Let me know. Thanks everyone.
  25. Any ideas of a graphics card with HDMI out? Any links to any cards that have HDMI out. My current HP Media Center has HDMI out AND DVI ouput on the back of it, but what are the chances that the card that came with my HP Media Center Desktop PC will have what it takes to handle the power needed to run DCS Black Shark?
