ErichVon Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 I have Ka-50 Black_Shark, the initial purchase 1.00 last July and the two patches to 1.0.2 currently. It looks like since the new version 2.0, there is a patch to 1.1.1.1 All I need is the $20 Upgrade. Is the item top of this page what I need to purchase? http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?end_pos=1322&scr=shop&lang=en - OR - On the Download page it says 4 different installers: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?end_pos=135&scr=products&lang=en Which one to purchase? I am a bit confused... Thanks for any help.

Thanks for any help. Download this http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?scr=product&ProductId=13&end_pos=135&lang=en You simply buy a key which you then put into the downloaded files when you have installed them and you first click fly. Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
Booger Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 The $20 upgrade should include patches to 1.1.1.1 if I remember correctly. You shouldn't have to patch. If I'm wrong & you still have to patch, simply look on the second link you provided. Note the version installed on the BS2 splash page, then grab the patch(es) you need. Upgrade from there (from the upgrade links, not the standalone ones). Standalone are BS2 purchases without BS1.
Booger Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 you could get the complete version of black shark 2 , that way if you re-install windows you wont have to install black shark 1 http://www.gamefly.co.uk/Download-DCS-Black-Shark-2-UK/5002374/ 14.99 for full version Oh hey there :lol:
Warmonger Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 (edited) Do you need to download their client at gamefly? or do they just send out the key via email? edit:Just bought it anyway, seems you can view the key in the order history so all is good :) Edited March 14, 2012 by Warmonger

Hi, That worked very well. I did exactly as you stated to do. I did it backwards, though. I downloaded #3 .bin. then #2 .bin, then #1 .bin; each were 90 minute downloads. Then I downloaded the .exe setup program. I did it this way so the files werre stacked .exe, 1, 2, 3 and all put in a dedicated folder for the 2.0 (1.1.1.1) upgrade. Once I knew the program worked out ok, I then purchased the $19.95 key. Afterwhich the purchase took me directly to the proper download page. I have dedicated folders for each upgrade in MY DOCUMENTS, Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit, stash. I back them all up, one by one, in order, on a big capacity thumb drive. I printout all the document receipt pages and put them in dedicated folders in my filing cabinet. All is good, unless my house burns down. Thank you. Also to the others that offered advice, thanks. <S> Edited March 15, 2012 by ErichVon
