Sov13t Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 For anyone in the know... So for a dedicated server can I use the same login for the Master Server as my client? Or does that cause issues? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 51st PVO Regiment | Forum | Statistics DCS: MiG-21Bis
chokko Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 i always had a second copy of a10c which i bought with 2nd account, to host dedi server...because i thought u needed a seperate licence. but i fired up an internet dedi server just now with my primary account (that has all dcs/fc3 modules), with a mission that has a10c and combined arms slots. I put the dedi computer user into the Redfor Ground commander role i joined from client PC using same account, and i was able to fly the a10c and jump to ground commander (blufor) also so we had 2 chokkos in game both using combined arms, using single combined arms licence via (obviously) single account.

Azrayen Posted November 10, 2012 Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) Sov13t, I think you need a different login. That's what I do. BTW: Why wanting to use the same login as your own PC? It's easy (and free) to create an account (= a login) for your server... ----- i joined from client PC using same account, and i was able to fly the a10c and jump to ground commander (blufor) also Were the server/host and the client on the same subnetwork? Meaning, did they have the same IP on the Internet? If yes, that's normal. If not, that's new to me, wasn't aware of this possibility (and don't understand why it's allowed, either) Edited November 10, 2012 by Azrayen

So that means i could have a family of 8 or more people playing MP a10c off single licence/account, so long as its from the same internet connection? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
