Razorback Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Gents, I have purchased DCS CA in July 2012, it was paid and it's well noted in my purchased DCS modules on the DCS website (with my serial number). I have installed the 1.2.4 module and now it's impossible to play with CA. The icon is marked with the $ sign and I have to pay if I want to play again... Is it a bug, same problems for others ? Solutions ? Thx Chris
Rongor Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Besides that your question belongs into the customer support section, you know that modules have to be activated after installation, right?
Razorback Posted July 3, 2013 Author Posted July 3, 2013 Besides that your question belongs into the customer support section, you know that modules have to be activated after installation, right? DCS CA was actived since a long time (July 2012) and after many uprades (from 1.2.1) it was not necessary to reactivate it. But here after the 1.2.4 upgrade i can't play with it anymore (beside this BS and A-10C module working fine after 1.2.4 upgrade, no reactivition requested...)
Rongor Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 In the first post you mentioned that you installed the module, no word about not being able to play any longer after patching a working CA up.
Razorback Posted July 3, 2013 Author Posted July 3, 2013 In the first post you mentioned that you installed the module, no word about not being able to play any longer after patching a working CA up. After the Upgrade 1.2.4 installed I am not able to play with CA (this problem is only with CA), then I have uploaded the DCS CA 1.2.4 but it's remain the same... At the end I am not able to play any longer after patching and I don't know why...
Razorback Posted July 3, 2013 Author Posted July 3, 2013 Did DCS World patch via the auto updater? Yes
Rongor Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Then never install the downloadable full modules again. They are for a clean fresh installation of DCS World. Now, you are telling you are not able to play CA any longer. What is this meaning? Doesnt DCS World start any longer? What happens exactly?
Razorback Posted July 3, 2013 Author Posted July 3, 2013 When I go to the Module Manager in DCS, CA isn't showed in the available Add-Ons. I can download FC3, P-51, UH-1 but CA don't exist into the DCS list !!! :(

I don't have installed FC3, P-51 and UH-1. I have installed before CA but now (after 1.2.4 upgrade) the icon of CA in the DCS main screen is marked with the "$" sign and he ask to buy it again... And one again when I go to the module manager, CA is not on the list into the available Add-on...:mad::mad:
Rongor Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Dont care for module manager or the symbols on the main screen. Start a mission that includes CA stuff and then see what happens
tintifaxl Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Other option would be to go to the install dir of DCS World\Mods\ca\bin and run the protect.exe that resides there. Windows 10 64bit, Intel i9-9900@5Ghz, 32 Gig RAM, MSI RTX 3080 TI, 2 TB SSD, 43" 2160p@1440p monitor.
Rongor Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 At this point it is still unclear to me what he precisely speaks of when telling us to be unable to play the game... That is why I suggest he should start a mission with CA roles. There is a good chance he will be queried for activating CA. Then the problem would get solved rather quick.

Thxxxxxx Rongor, I finally found the problem with your advice. The folder Combined Arms was not into the right folder (Tech and not Airplanes in Mods) !!! Thx again
Razorback Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 Grrrrrrrrr Same shit after the 1.2.6 upgrade ! Impossible to play with CA !!!!!! Can you tell me where is exactly located the Combined Arms folder in 1.2.6 ? Thx

Razorback Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 Thx for the info, I have downloaded ad installed CA 1.2.6 (After the last update 1.2.6 of DCS World) and now all is working fine. BUT...29,99$ spend for an update only....:(
Rongor Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 CA isnt an update but a module. How do you come to this misunderstanding?
kk0425 Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 What exactly are you doing to get this problem?
Razorback Posted January 23, 2014 Author Posted January 23, 2014 After each update of DCS World it's become impossible to play with CA anymore... I have to download the same version of DCS World, my last one is 1.2.6. But is it normal to buy it too ? Because with the download of the last CA version you receive also a new serial number (than the old one is not usable). Can you confirm ? Thx
kk0425 Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 It works fine for me with each update. No buying or reactivating the module. Just let the auto updater run and it should work. You don't get a new serial number with each download. You only get one when you purchase it.
cichlidfan Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 The updates are free. Your serial number should keep working after an update. You do not get a new one.
