Ramsay Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) The discounted BS1 to BS2 upgrade (similar to BS2 sale pricing) is no longer sold/available. AFAIK "BS1 upgrade" still works with older versions of DCS but is depreciated (unsupported) in 2.5.6 Owners who already own the BS1 upgrade can upgrade their licence to a "full" BS2 licence (that doesn't check for BS1 when 1st installed) and works in 2.5.6. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=206574 Edited March 28, 2020 by Ramsay i9 9900K @4.8GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 11 Pro x64, Odyssey G93SC 5120X1440
Callsign.Vega Posted March 28, 2020 Author Posted March 28, 2020 So have to buy the whole game over again for basically a patch... GPU: RTX 4090 - 3,000 MHz core / 12,000 MHz VRAM.

Ramsay Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 So have to buy the whole game over again for basically a patch... Moving from "BS1 Upgrade" to a Full BS2 licence is free. Moving from BS1 (2008 ) to DCS World BS2 (2011-2020) requires you buy afresh. i9 9900K @4.8GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 11 Pro x64, Odyssey G93SC 5120X1440

DCS: Black Shark 2 was bought 05/14/2016 Black Shark 2 Republic Campaign 05/20/2016 Must be re-purchased? I am Really confused. It says "You already have a serial number for this product."
MeerCaT Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 @Super18 - Don't worry you are fine. What is being talked about here is when people bought the original "Black Shark" (which was a completely standalone game, nothing to do with the "DCS World" we now live in) and then upgraded to "Black Shark 2" and are now trying to 'convert' this combination of "BS1+BS2Upgrade" into a license for the full single "DCS: Black Shark 2" module within DCS World. From what you say, you bought the 'full' version of "DCS: Black Shark 2" straight up within DCS World. So this topic of transferring/converting/migrating licenses doesn't affect you.
Super18 Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Yup...But I can't get the KA-50 to fly/use at all? Tried to create a mission and I can't fly it because it is not "Highlighted" in the selection.
MeerCaT Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Ah right, well that's a separate issue. I'd recommend starting a new thread for that and see if anyone comes along with any advice.
