DCS World on two computers

[con3para]

HI do i need to add a another KEY..for setup on two computers , i have two A10- keys and two black-shark one ..and blk2 ..keys ..i see the same key when trying to go multiplayer ..on LAN..thx

AFAIK you can install World on any PC you like (as you don't need a key for World)

Modules like P-51 need a key, and therefore can be installed on only one PC.

what about multiplayer ..LAN..i have it on two computers and asks for KEY...???

DCS World with no key will only work in single player.

If you want multiplayer, you will need a key for every computer you use.

Not quite true: you can install on multiple computers, but you are not allowed to actually use it on both those computers at the same time.

 

For example, let's assume you're a student, and you have one computer at your dorm, and one at home with your parents.

 

This is fine:

Installed on both computers, so that you don't have to move the computers to play when you go back home etc.

 

This is not fine:

Playing from your dorm while your kid brother plays on the computer you have at home.

 

The reason people purchase multiple licenses is often that they intend to use one key on a perpetually online server (a "dedicated" server), and then obviously they'll need another key for their own play.

Use one key on your computer ( For YOU to play with ) and

Use the other on the other computer ( The person you want to play with )and

for BS2, Enter it in for Who ever wants to play it, Either You,Or a Friend or Another Friend.

 

A10c and BS2 can play together. so all Three of you can play together. Or you can give it to one of your friends or use it for yourself.

 

If it asks for a BS2 key, and you dont want to enter it in, Click Exit on it Three Times and it will load your game, It does that for me with the P51 Key screen,

ok cool ill use blackshark2 key for my , missus and ill use the A10- KEY for my self ...when entering multiplayer ..

If I'm not mistaken you will only be able to fly the aircraft you have keys entered for. So in your case the missus will only be able to fly the bs and su-25
