Spontaneous combustion at the start of the 'Instant Action' mission?

[creed]

Hello everyone,

I have, until this evening, been clinging to the standalone version of DCS: A-10, however, decided to make the switch, and after several hours of downloading, and half an hour of getting my HOTAS Cougar set up just so, I decided to play one of the instant action missions. I went for the medium difficulty (it has been a long day) one, based in the Georgian Foothills, however, upon pressing pause/break to start the mission, my aircraft immediately blows up.

My only idea was that perhaps my wingman and I were too close together, and collided. I tried rectifying this in the mission editor, spacing us further apart; this did not help.

I would therefore like to ask, can anyone replicate this problem, and is there a known solution?

Regards,

Charlie

Hi Charlie,

 

It seems that you haven't downloaded or installed the A-10C module for DCS World properly.

I suspect that the activation window poped up as you started your first flight with the A-10C and World, right?

Hi John,

Thanks for the reply. I certainly didn't see the activation window upon starting up, but that could potentially be the problem. I've installed the latest version (1.2.1) on top of 1.2.0 of both DCS World and A-10C, so perhaps this is causing conflict. Regarding registration, is there a way to get the window to pop up? I should say that DCS A-10C v1.1.1.1 is still installed on my computer, and it works perfectly.

Thanks,

Charlie

Hi Charlie,

 

If you installed World 1.2.1 ontop of World 1.2.0 and A-10C World module 1.2.0 you will have to install the A-10C World module 1.2.1 and than the activation window will probably show up too.

hmm? I've already done that, any other suggestions?
