Lucas_From_Hell Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 So not a very current issue but I hope I can get some help here. I had Flaming Cliffs 2 and DCS:Black Shark installed on my computer. Due to some instability I had to reinstall Windows and format the HDD. Now, in a bout of carelessness I thought the installations would be fine because I had them both based off my external HDD where I keep all gaming related stuff. Fast-forward a little and here I am without being able to use either of them :( Unfortunately after moving some 10 or more times since 2010 when I bought and activated them I was heartbroken to find I had lost both CD boxes with the activation key stickers in them. Long story short: formatted the computer, lost the keys and can't find the physical copies. Is there any way I can recover those? My PC isn't up to DCS:World standards yet so I can't just migrate to that, and I'd love to enjoy the campaigns I had in progress there until I upgrade. Thanks a lot for your help!
cichlidfan Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 I would open a support ticket, along with posting here. If ED can't help you with FC2/LockOn, let me know, as I have keys that I no longer use.

Lucas_From_Hell Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 Thanks for the generosity, and I'll give that a go. I managed to dig out a 2 year old mobile phone photo of the Flaming Cliffs key so at least part of the problem is solved, but no Black Shark yet.
cichlidfan Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Good luck. Unfortunately, I gave my BS1 key away several years ago.

zebra0312 Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Somewhere I should have a BS1 key. Without the ability to upgrade to BS2 anymore, I can give it to you. When I'm home I'll search it. 1 Servus! :smilewink: My DCS:World-Modules: A-10C, UH-1H, F-86F, Fw-190D9, MiG-21bis, P-51D, Mi-8MTV2,Bf-109K4, MiG-15bis, L-39C, Hawk, NTTR, Mirage 2000C, SA342M Gazelle.

Lucas_From_Hell Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) Thanks a ton, reinstalling BS1 right now to avoid the .dll errors I had with FC2, and will update you once it's done :) EDIT: Up and running, cheers! Edited October 22, 2015 by Lucas_From_Hell
