Toni Carrera Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 I understand that FC3 requires, I think it said, LOMAC or a previous FC title. Where can I buy a copy of LOMAC these days? I gave my one and its leather bound manual that I purchased to a charity shop about 3 years ago. :( Thanks Toni Toni Carrera (Ice Rhino) ThrustMaster HOTAS Warthog Throttle & A10C Stick, ThrustMaster F/A-18C Stick, ThrustMaster TFRP Pedals, ThrustMaster Cougars x 2, fitted to CubeSim USB Screens, TrackIR 4 Active LED & Cap Reflector, Stream Deck XL Intel® Core™ i7-5820K 12 Core Processor, 32GB RAM, 1 x 500GB SSD, 2 x 256GB SSD, 1 x 1TB SSD 4 x 4TB Western Digital Mechanical. 2 x ASUS GTX 1080's SLI, ASUS 29" Ultrawide flanked by 2 x 22" IPS Monitors

Nopileus Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Since you are in the UK your best bet would be getting a used copy off Amazon.co.uk, this should cost you around 5£. Digital versions only exist in the USA from Amazon.com and Ubisoft.
Toni Carrera Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 My thanks to you both, appreciated. I might see what Steam are charging for it if they sell it.

joey45 Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 If your just gonna fly the F-15C and the Cy-27 then wait a fair bit. Steam are not srlly it.

Toni Carrera Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Damn :( Amazon.co.uk it is then I guess.

That's a sales killer. "Isn't this fun!?" - Inglorious Bastards "I rode a tank, held a general's rank / When the Blitzkrieg raged, and the bodies stank!" - Stones.
dotChuckles Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Exactly! Why in the HELL do you have to have that ancient game to play FC3? That's a sales killer. This is due to Ubisoft owning the rights to LOMAC. FC is an offshoot of LOMAC so the install is required to satisfy a legal obligation. It's unfortunate, but Ubisoft have made it so. It's also been discussed at length on the forums. Have a search and you will find the info. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
PatrickR Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 I recently bought: "Lock On Gold Air Combat Simulation With Flaming Cliffs Add-on Expansion Pc Game" I'm hoping that this will enable me to run FC3??
joey45 Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 make sure DCS: World is installed > install LOMAC > install FC3 > delete LOMAC.

Cnuke Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Lock-on can be found almost for free in those cheapsale bin's in game/music shops. But it's law that you don't find it when you need it and you do find it when you don't. :)
Rhinox Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 If your just gonna fly the F-15C and the Cy-27 then wait a fair bit. A fair bit? :lol:
schkorpio Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 does anyone know which Lock:On Modern Air Combat files are the ones FC3 checks for while installing? I'm thinking about doing a reinstall and i'd be really nice not to have to pull the disc out again. If I could just keep lomac.exe or whatever is needed a windows registry entry. I'd be much easier.
