lebiffo Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 A couple of days ago I purchased a copy of the A10C Warthog online from the Eagle DCS website. I didn't get a serial number for this either on the Order History web page or in the resultant e-mail. I understand that this is a known issue that Eagle are working on but nevertheless I feel pretty peeved (to put it politely) that I was not informed in advance that there would be this this sort of inderterminate (?) delay before I can use the product :mad:. Wanting to try something else I had a go at buying the P-51D this morning, this time the serial number appeared on the Payment Page of the website and the resultant e-mail. So far so good. Unfortunately after installing the P-51D software I am unable to activate the product because DCS World keeps on presenting me with the A10C WartHog Serial Number Entry/Activation Screen. I can't get past this to get to the P-51D Serial Number Entry/Activation Screen even when selecting a P-51D module eg. training. So to come to my question. If I were to uninstall the whole shebang, I don't think I can just uninstall the A10C, and then reinstall DCS World followed by the P-51D could I then activate the Mustang, or would I still be prevented by some residual A10C WartHog Activation Screen? Some advice would be appreciated on this together with an reasonable estimate of how long it will be before we get our A10C Serial Numbers.
159th_Viper Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 To uninstall the A-10C module, just navigate to the DCS World/Mods/aircrafts folder and open said aircrafts folder. Highlight and delete the entire A-10C folder. As for the delay in serials, the matter is being worked on. Unfortunately no specific time as to the resolution can be given. Please accept an apology for the delay as I know it cannot be easy nor reasonable to accept the current state of affairs. It is, as said, being worked on.

lebiffo Posted September 28, 2012 Author Posted September 28, 2012 Thanks for your help Viper, I followed your advice on deleting the A-10C folder in the DCS World/Mods/aircrafts folder and I'm pleased to say it worked perfectly. I have now sucessfully activated the P-51D and am running it. Super! Thanks again.
