gerry pothier jr Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) My first purchase here, and it tells me I need Black Shark installed, before I can load BS 2 1.2.3. . It did not state that in the requirements this was needed. Do I have to buy an older version to install a new one? Edited March 10, 2013 by gerry pothier jr
cichlidfan Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 There are two versions of Black Shark 2 in the e-shop. There is a full version and an UPGRADE version for people that already own Black Shark 1. In the e-shop, pictured, the upper one is the full version for 39.99. The one below is the upgrade for 29.99 and it clearly states in red that Black Shark is required. Did you buy the full version and then download the installer for the upgrade? Here is the correct link for the full version http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/index.php?scr=product&ProductId=12&end_pos=136&lang=en ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Hero, i7-6700K, Noctua NH-D14 Cooler, Crucial 32GB DDR4 2133, Samsung 950 Pro NVMe 256GB, Samsung EVO 250GB & 500GB SSD, 2TB Caviar Black, Zotac GTX 1080 AMP!

gerry pothier jr Posted March 10, 2013 Author Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) I did buy the full version and not the upgrade. It said: DCS Black Shark must be installed. Thanks for the quick response too! Edited March 10, 2013 by gerry pothier jr
cichlidfan Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 No problem, it has happened once or twice before. ;) Just download the Black Shark 2 module from the link I posted. That one will not ask for Black Shark 1.

cichlidfan Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Also, do NOT let DCS World update until you are done installing everything.
