DCS World with A-10C on Steam

[Perriwen]

While I'm downloading DCS World, I have a quick question: I have the Steam version of A-10C, will World automatically detect it, or will I have to do something special to get the Steam version to work with World?

[Nate--IRL--]

Install DCS:-World + the A-10 module for World and it will just work, as long as you flown the steam version at least once.

Download the file at the bottom labeled "A-10C for DCS World"

Thanks

 

Do I have to verify my Steam account so ED knows I legally own a copy of A-10C?

No you just need to run the steam version once, or just use the Licence key in the property page in Steam for DCS if asked.

Assuming you have used your Steam copy opf A-10C at least once on this computer, you're all set. Steam version uses the same DRM as this one (due to Steam being unable to supply a 64-bit compatible DRM at the time of launch), so as long as you've used your A-10C once and activated it as prompted there, you're already activated for DCS World beta. :)

 

If you have not already used the Steam-acquired copy, you will be prompted to activate. To get your key, right-click the A-10C entry in Steam and find the license key there, then input this key in the activation prompt. This will make A-10C active on your computer - inclusive of both World module beta version and your Steam copy.
