  1. Well, for cryin out loud. They can't provide a program that tells you how to get your legitimate module to play nice with the OB version? All the other modules since Warthog were simple click and it updated and I was in cockpit in less than ten minutes. Now with Apache I get all sorts of install warnings...like "This does not work with Steam"....I KNOW THAT, skip that message. Complete waste of money.
  2. I have similar problems. I updated the Openbeta version and first it said I have no authorization. But then it continued. Eventually, I got to the main screen where the AH-64D was checked marked to install. Once I hit the button there was a long pause and then a message saying I was not authorized. I tried again, same message. I am now in the process of "Repair Install". What is going on here? I bought this over a year ago. Never had this problem with Hornet, AC-10, AV-8B, Super Carrier, or ANY of the maps.
  3. I'm losing interest. Fortunately I didn't put down any $$$ on an early access. Once the AH-64D comes out, bye bye to EF
  4. Same, Microprose F-15E Strike Eagle was my first before Novalogic and the "Excellent for the time" Jane's Longbow I & II. Lots of others followed. Still have them all on the original disks and packaging.
  5. Beginning of 2225...the year Covid 19 has run out of variants and businesses can no longer claim the pandemic as an excuse for why they drag their feet.
  6. yep, I guess I was just concerned about the folder DCS World Openbeta instead of just DCS World and was wondering if I would even need to change that. So, you're right, my bad.
  7. Well the thing is, the executable itself is openbeta.exe. I'd rather have the final executable than have a "Stand-by"
  8. I guess I could give you the link via PM. If a moderator would verify doing so is ok?
  9. Yes and that's why I asked. We can't have something on "Open beta" forever. It has to end with their most stable version.
  10. Well then, that being the case, it seems it would be more prudent to use the most recent openbeta if you would want to have at least some access to projects before you die. Wouldn't you agree given past trends?
  11. I mean the stable release. And if so, will going to the latest stable release prevent me from getting early access to modules such as the Longbow? TIA
  12. In your opinion, will this manual list ONLY the operations that we will be using or is this manual for the real thing? Edit: They only have the 64-A version and it's not free.
  13. Is there anything like an operating manual out there yet? Specifically on how DCS will have it operating?
  14. I wanted to show how little the hovering chopper was affected by the assault. But if you listen to the dialog, you can hear that the gunner should go to Auto-range before the attack. I'll only post it, if I can get a moderator's ok.
  15. This is NOT the gun kills you see from a AC-130 on the web. This was video given to me by a former student I had long time ago.
  16. Does anyone know if I can post REAL live chopper kills? Enemies are actually killed from a distance with a chain gun. Would it violate rules for me to post it?
  17. If this info is so readily available, why did it take ED so long to get to it? I mean when I first ordered Blackshark it was "Hey, why this attack chopper?" Even then, everyone knew the Apache was state-of-the-art. We were told that because of this there was too much Top Secret shit in this. It could not be divulged in an accurate replica of the Apache. Are we now supposed to believe that ALL this is now declassified? Or maybe ED was feeding us a load of crap.
  18. YESSSSSS! LB2 was the best. I can remember making it home after a mission with no radar and had to fly NOE in pitch dark. In those days, this Jane's sim was one of the first to allow multi-player and my CPG was going nuts thinking we were toast. At the end of the mission we got the silver star or MOH, I forget. But it was very immersive back in those days.
