I just updated, i have Flaming cliffs 3 installed, when i launch dcs it say FC3 modules are not authorized. I click OK, i go on module manager inside DCS, pop-up appear saying i have to install FC3. I click OK, DCS quits, try to reinstall FC3 but fails. Launcher re-opens, and if i launch DCS the loop repeats endlessly.

Any idea?

 

+1 - same for me.

I bought FC4.   I see new icons for the FC4 aircraft and the old planes say "SU33 For DCS World" while the MiG15 says "Flaming Cliffs"
 

I see FC3 as downloadable.  No errors for not authorized but the F15C, I can't get in the cockpit.   FC3 will download for cycles back to be downloaded.

I tried to unlink and recover the licenses.

I tried to uninstall FC3 and the FC3 planes individually

I tried to clean and repair.

Several campaigns are gone (A10 for example, but the Mig 29 campaigns are there)

Reboot etc...

FC3 appears grayed out on the game homepage as if I didn't buy it.

Maybe we need to buy the update? Seems unfair.

I upgraded to FC2024 (legacy FC3 owner), all of the aircraft, including the legacy ones seem to be there. IIRC, I had to use the old module manager to get to where the files would download properly.

That being said, all of the aircraft are available, but the F-15C's cockpit is unavailable. If it is a hot or air start, the aircraft is visible in F2 view, but seems to be controlled by AI, even with Client or Player selected in the ME.

Something is definitely goofed with the licensing. The module store states that "Owners of FC3 do not need to purchase" on all the original FC3 planes, but the website shows the "buy" button as if it doesn't recognize that I'm already an FC3 owner.

I am having the same issue. I own the Flaming Cliffs 3 module. After updating today FC3 will not load/install. In my account it shows I own it but in game it shows that I need to install. When I tried to install it just continues to loop from the two different start up screens. Purchased 09/17/2023.

You don't need to pay for FC4 to get FC3 to work.  FC3 authorization currently has a bug that ED is looking into.

I have the same issue, the new laucher tells me i have 5 modules available for installation but when i look at the list it is empty.

When i open the In Game module manager, it tells me that i can install FC3 at each start up of DCS

If i have checked the enable boxes fot the Su25, the Su27, the Mig29 the A10A and the F15C, i have the same message telling me that i am not authorized to use those planes...

and more:

I've purchase the new FC aircrafts, the F5 CTD and none of this aircraft has the mouse cursor working.

Cheers

Should we contact support individually or is this topic sufficient for a quick resolution?

ED has said in at least several posts that they are working on a fix.  There are also some workarounds available if you look through the many different threads on this.

[Megatron616]

can you link one of those stopgap solutions here? I have been looking off and on since the problem started.

[Columbar]

Here is solution:

It solved problem for me.
