Tilvaltar Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I have the newest DCS World version, I have some other modules running (Mi8, UH, FC3), but with P51 something is wrong. I have downloaded the setup file by Bittorrent and installed it from there, P51 is in the list of installed modules now, the serial is there, but whenever I want to control a P51 (campaign, quick mission, editor) I only get a 3rd person view of AI P51s or other AI controlled aircraft. Any ideas to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tilvaltar Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 I checked it more than twice ... no chance. I wonder why none of the new modules had to be activated. The serial is in the Module Manager, but there was never an activation like with the other modules I purchased some weeks or months ago (FC3 for example). Do P51, K50 and A10C have no extra activation anymore? And if, how can I force an activation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilvaltar Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 I started "Mods\aircrafts\P-51D\bin\p51_protect.exe", entered the serial and activated the module, but I still can't control the P-51D. Neither in Quick Missions nor in campain and editor (not as "Player", not as "Client"). What the heck is wrong here? The planes from FC3, the Mi8, the UH work! Why not the P-51D?

joey45 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Make a mission through the ME and see if it works. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Tilvaltar Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 Self-made missions from the editor, quick missions, campaign(s) - none of them let me control the P51-D. I just can watch her flying by AI control. (In the editor I have set the P51-D as "Player"!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate--IRL-- Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Re-install the module maybe? Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilvaltar Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 Re-install the module maybe? Nate Already done ... that's why I ask here - I have no clue what still could be wrong. New DCS World installation, modules downloaded and installed, game started. Some activation dialogues popped up (FC3, Huey, Mi8), some didn't (A-10C, Ka50 2, and P-51D). Those modules don't work now, the others do. I have activated P-51D, Ka50 and A10 manually by starting the xx_protect.exe from their directories; they appear in the list of installed modules, but I can't get into the aircrafts, just watch them flying (as if they weren't activated). :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paganus Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Just shooting from the hip here, but could it be in the registry? When you re-installed did you move the location or change the Windows user? Did you deactivate them all when you removed the old? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilvaltar Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 I installed DCS World new on 64 bit Windows 8 while it was still active on my 32 bit Windows 7 SSD. I didn't deactivate anything before since it's possible to have multiple parallel installations (am I right here?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
