Cobra847 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) Dear All, To find a permanent fix for the erroneous request for activation (regardless of changed hardware) - we are working to implement a fix that eliminates this error. Unfortunately, this might mean that in 1.5.1 and in one future patch, you may be prompted for one additional activation of your license key. However, do not fret. To put it bluntly; we will replace your key at any given time should you need it. If you are low on activations or have completely run out; please send us an e-mail to: nicholas.dackard@gmail.com and we will work with you to replace your key. Please try to limit yourselves and only request a change in key if you feel it absolutely necessary to help alleviate our workload. Additionally, it is important to note that due to this change in the protection system, switching between 1.2.16 and 1.5 will yield a re-activation prompt. Currently, we recommend that you stick to one version of DCS World until 1.5 is Final. Apologies for the inconvenience caused, Thank you, Nick & LS Edited November 26, 2015 by Cobra847 Nicholas Dackard Founder & Lead Artist Heatblur Simulations https://www.facebook.com/heatblur/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snacko Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 To put it bluntly; we will replace your key at any given time should you need it. What exactly does this mean? DCS already has some rule to replace your key when you run out, but it's limited to once per month. Are you going to restore several keys at once? I have had the Mig21 for just over a year and have used up 6 keys already. One was when I installed the beta. Another was today with 1.5.1. The others didn't make sense either. Most of my other 9 modules have not asked for re-activation in about a year. :mad: Intel I9-10850K (OC @ 5.0ghz) │ Asus Maximus XII Hero │ G.Skill Ripjaws 64GB (4x16GB) DDR4 3200 │ Thermaltake Water 360mm Gigabyte RTX 4090 Gaming OC 24gb │ 2TB M.2 EVO Pro; 1T M.2 EVO; Sandisk SSD Drives │ 49" Samsung Curved Widescreen │ 28" Touchscreen - ҉ - Blackshark Cockpit Trainer - ҉ - ♣ Thread | ♥ Download Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fri13 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Please try to limit yourselves and only request a change in key if you feel it absolutely necessary to help alleviate our workload. Apologies for the inconvenience caused, Thank you, Nick & LS Good to know. As I "lost" 3 activations as on two installations on two different computers suddenly started to ask re-activation. Yesterday I got a fourth request suddenly and I didn't activate as it would have been fourth. I remeber reading somepoint previously that there was a problem with the activation but just didn't get it at the moment. i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.

VML_robáG Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hi all! I need some help, today update DCS openbeta. After the finish update start the game and I received an error message. And DCS stoped work. "The application module Avionics.dll has been modified. It may be damaged or infected by a virus. Scan your computer for viruses and reinstall the application. If the error recurs, click "Error report" and send the report to product technical support." I tried run the repair for updater but don't fix the error. But when you replace an older avionics.dll (I find .dll erlier hotfix for DCS 1.5) will start in the DCS THX for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xaoslaad Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Thank you! I've been nailed by this in 1.5 and plugging and unplugging USB devices I was building to many times. The 21 definitely seems more finicky than other modules, so I'll be glad to see a fix. I'm already down to 5 activations and no way have I installed it more than 2 or 3 times...

splash Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 This morning i lost one activation when launching in 1.5, but i tríed 1.2.16 and it is asking for a new activation. What can I do to get a reset in activations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splash Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Apparently, there is some problem between 1.2.16 and 1.5. Every time I launched a different version I get the message regarding physical comprobation has failed and a new activation is needed. I have 4 activations now and without hardware change!!!!.
