Bangtail Posted March 31, 2010 Posted March 31, 2010 Whenever I launch FC 2.0 missions, I sometimes get a pop up referring to Black Shark. It doesn't seem to stop the game from working but it is annoying. Does anyone know what could be causing this? Cheers

ECV56_Finger Posted March 31, 2010 Posted March 31, 2010 I just try it and works ok here. Didi you happend to install the sim in the default directory? A friend of mine was having a lot of problems with blackshark lua and directories files, and fix it by reinstalling in another partition/hardrive. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

I was thinking about reinstalling everything but I think I am down to my last activiation on Black Shark. Just out of interest, can I install DCS Black Shark and DCS FC 2.0 without the original LOMAC?

Eventhough the error it´s telling you something about Blackshark, the actual error it´s in files an foldes inside your FC2 installation so no need to reinstall BS! Just out of interest, can I install DCS Black Shark and DCS FC 2.0 without the original LOMAC? For BS you don´t need anything, but for the download version of FC2 you will need Lock On. I think they are planning to publish a DVD "stand alone" version somewhere in the future, but for now you will need the original lock on in order to install FC2. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

DCS:BS and FC2 are different products - you can install them separately - never in the same directory. - DCS:BS is standalone, no need for Lockon - FC2 EN needs Lockon (1.0) installed as a pre-requiste for installing FC2. FC2 must then be installed in the Default / separate directory. Lockon 1.x, FC1, FC2 and DCS can co-exists on the same computer - just make sure they are in separate directories.

Distiler Posted March 31, 2010 Posted March 31, 2010 If you're in Windows Vista or 7 avoid at all costs /program files folder and if you can, even the whole C: unit and install it in another partition or drive. BTW, don't install FC2 over Lockon or Lockon: Flamming Cliffs, use another folder. AMD Ryzen 1400 // 16 GB DDR4 2933Mhz // Nvidia 1060 6GB // W10 64bit // Microsoft Sidewinder Precision 2

None of my installs overlap each other, they are all in their own directories :)
