tommytoad Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Why is there not any information about this? Now i cant activate my three, bought, products and i have no idea when its gonna work again. If you are going to use this DRM stuff, please provide information to your users when something is not working. So, any word on when this is fixed?

rottweil13 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I can't activate either, I just bought Black Shark 1 and Black Shark 2 upgrade and neither one will activate through the DCS server or through StarForce. I was hoping to play this sim today but they've been down all morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommytoad Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 So you can access https://proactive.star-force.com/2.0/activate.php or https://proactive.star-force.com/ ? Edit: been trying for three hours now, the website is not up and the in-game activation has the same problem with timeout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbnd Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Same for me: "Failure reason: Unable to connect to the activation server. Check your Internet connection and try again." and the starforce website is down too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both links work fine here, and I deactivated all my DCS products and erased the registry entries and all activated again without any problem.

Maulkin Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I just bought a new motherboard and CPU so before installing I deactivated all three DCS products I currently own (Ka-50, A-10C, and P-51) which worked fine about 4 days ago. Now I am finished with the installation and now I am also unable to activate any of my three licenses. The website is also unreachable. And plain star-force.com just displays a blank page. This really needs to be looked into. --Maulkin Windows 10 64-bit - AMD Ryzen 9 5900X @ 3.7 GHz - 32 GB DDR4 3600MHz RAM - EVGA FTW3 RTX 3080 - Asus Crosshair VIII Hero motherboard - Samsung EVO Pro 1 TB SSD - TrackIR 4 Pro - Thrustmaster Warthog - Saitek rudder pedals - Lilliput UM-80/C with TM Cougars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlidfan Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I also ran into this problem, with activation on a second machine, two nights ago but did not pursue it further.

dores893 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Yeah, I just spent the better part of the evening reading and memorizing Ka-50 startup procedures and navigation and now I can't active my product. Servers unreachable. Good lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dores893 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 This post started 6 hours ago. I could accept maybe they were rebooting servers for an hour max, but six hours?

The first post to this thread was Feb 22nd and I am surprised this has gone on for so long. If it is/was the same problem, it has not been continuous or at least the effect may not have been as widespread. At the time of that post, I was able to connect to Starforce's site.

BreeOge Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Same here, all day I have been trying to activate LO3 but NO, the servers are not up to activate. This is bull crap, I feel we all need to be compensated for this problem. Emails, Website, Activation nothing works. When you buy a game you expect you could at least activate it at a bare min.
