DCS World + A-10C from Steam

[Zakatak]

I have A-10C on Steam, but I haven't played it in awhile. Now that I have a new PC, I want to redownload it along with DCS World. Will the CD Key I was given function for the non-Steam version?

 

So to do this I would have to:

1. Download all the DCS World .bin files on Downloads > Software > P-51D

2. Download all the DCS A-10C .bin files on Downloads > Software > A-10C

3. ...

 

Is this right so far? What do I do after that?

Yes, your steam key will work.

 

DL the files. Make sure to get the exe not just the bin files.

 

Run the World exe. Then run the A-10 exe. Then start an A-10 mission and it will ask for your key.

 

Make sure the A-10 is v1.1.2.1 and not the old standalone v1.1.1.1

The .exe files are only 1-2Mb and require you to have a disk to use. Do you download the .bin files, then use the .exe file to install them?

Follow the download instructions on the download page:

"All 5 files should be downloaded and put into one folder before launching setup. Filenames are of importance."

Note: if you do not intend to fly P-51D, ignore the P-51D file.

 

Then download and install the A-10C_1.1.2.1_EN.exe file at the bottom of this page:

DCS World consists of one exe and 3 bin files. Put them in the same folder and run the exe. It will install world. A-10 constists of one exe (and it is much larger than 2MB). Run that exe to install A-10 into World.
