AtaliaA1 Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 (edited) Usually the individual isn't a member. In that case Sign them up by creating a user name and Password for them when U purchase the module. Then I email them the info. or message them on FaceBook have done it several times now. A good way to get quality personnel in our Forums and Multi-Player area. This will be my 4th purchase for friends and family. We should have a Sticky with the Title Purchasing Modules for Friends. It will remind users it can be done and increase sales as members are reminded they can bring Family and Friends into our Genre. Just a thought.

Flogger23m Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 how do I find the members name? Flogger23m :lol: Though keep in mind if they have other modules on Steam you will need to buy it via Steam (if they want all modules in a single installer) and use Steam's gifting system.

Bucic Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Wait, wait. Wasn't there a 'gift' option in the purchase process?! I got as far as credit card details in my test purchase (Kurfurst just in case :) ) and I didn't see such option.

JNASova Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 It is simple. One way is that your friend create profile at digitalcombatsimulator.com.Than,you by the module with his account.Or,you can by module with your account.At top left,afther you log in, you will have link Perosnal section.Select Personal section,than Licencing.Enter the serial number.You will see that product is bound to your nick name.Simply,change your user name with his and save.

Soulres Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 When you buy it,give them the key to activate it on their own account. example, say your buying the A10c. you will get the Serial key (xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx) then you have them go on the ED downloads page http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/modules/ Download the A10c Module (Make sure they have DCS WORLD FIRST BEFORE DOWNLOADING) Have them Run the game,Run the Module, and it will ask for said key Enter the key and Wallah.

That will not work. the Serial Key will be associated with the purchasers account. 1 This was a Boutique Builder iBuypower rig.

Bucic Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Can anyone please answer the original question? I mean, for the dcs online store. For Steam store it's rather straightforward.

AtaliaA1 Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Can anyone please answer the original question? I mean, for the dcs online store. For Steam store it's rather straightforward. What do u not understand? The Q. was answered on the first page. One with a purchase for an individual with out a log in the other answer is for a user who creates his own.

Bucic Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 What do u not understand? The Q. was answered on the first page. One with a purchase for an individual with out a log in(...) The first scenario is explained only vaguely In that case Sign them up by creating a user name and Password for them when U purchase the module. How exactly? I can't test it without risking buying an unwanted copy. Which action ultimately confirms purchase on DCS eshop BTW. Confirming payment or some earlier action? the other answer is for a user who creates his own. I don't see it.

AtaliaA1 Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Sure U can test it. Create the Log in for them. Log in with that info. then purchase the module with that account.
