Steam has mustang on sale for $11.99 and other titles for 70% to 80% off. Huey is only $9.99 for the next 2 days but I have a question. They had previously said to buy all titles from one site. I've bought all previous purchases from DCS but now they are carrying them on steam. Will I be able to use the steam licenses with my previous purchases in DCS world?

I too am in a similar boat as you. I previously purchased all of my modules through the DCS site. I recently bought 2 modules off of the Steam sale.

 

What I ended up doing was only obtaining the serial key from the steam bought modules, downloaded the modules from the DCS site and when I launched the game input the serial keys when prompted.

 

Here are the steps I took:

* Bought modules off of steam site

* Looked in my steam library, saw DCS world, clicked on install (or play now).

** NOTE: I already had DCS world installed on my machine, but when I right clicked on the DCS world row, I didn't see the option to get the keys

* Once the download started, I right clicked on the DCS world row and selected the 'get keys' menu (I can't remember the exact terminology

* Copy and pasted the keys into a text editor

* Paused the steam download

* Closed steam

* Downloaded the modules I bought off of the DCS site and installed

* Loaded up a mission for the modules and input my keys when prompted

 

So far so good!

I bought the P-51 mustang to try and move it over the way you did it. I'd migrate everything over to steam but I don't think the upgrade version of Blackshark 2 will migrate. Waiting for the E store on DCS site to come back up to install before I purchase more titles from steam.

I installed DCS World, then I got "failed to contact key server" message.

What is this? Could someone give me an advise what to do?

 

Now working. :thumbup:
