artmustel Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I mean exactly, can I do that without installing Steam DCS? I was looking at Steam 40% off sale, and thought it would be nice to add some plane but only if I don't need to install DCS from steam. Thanks in anticipation!

Major Puncake Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 no you don't simply just buy it and copy the activation code. Then put this into your account on the DCS website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al531246 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) With regards to keys here's the deal; Steam > DCS ✓ DCS > Steam ✗ I believe you should be able to just buy the module on Steam and use it on Standalone. You can view the module key by clicking on the right side of Steam; "CD Key". Use DCS module manager (or using cmd prompt from DCS World/bin) to download the module then use your Steam key to activate it.

Rudel_chw Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I mean exactly, can I do that without installing Steam DCS? Yes, you purchase on Steam, dont need to download it, just take note of the serial key and then input that key on your personal account at Eagle Dynamic's Site. Next time you run DCS, go to the Module Manager and your new purchases will show up there. I was looking at Steam 40% off sale, and thought it would be nice to add some plane but only if I don't need to install DCS from steam. Go ahead, a lot of my aircrafts where purchased at Steam's sales :) For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shagrat Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Be careful to check, for each individual purchase. With recent encouragement to use Steam DRM it is no longer possible to activate Steam bought keys in DCS standalone. E.g. Mirage 2000C on Steam.

Erich Alfred Hartmann Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Yes, I have the M2000 myself and I do not get the serial number, that is to say that in order to not have two accounts, I bought the mirage because I stay in steam, basically because it would be uncomfortable for me to have a certain number of modules in an account (ED) and a certain number of modules in another account, that is if I want to fly with the mirage I will have to launch STEAM, if I wanted to fly with another plane I will have to launch the independent one, and it is uncomfortable, (I do not say it to bad) simply that I would like the steam version, basically because I bought the mirage 2000 in steam and since it can not be activated in (ED) and I like to have it all in one I honestly do not know which version is better, but I think both are the same P.D: I hope that offers with discounts in modules also apply to STEAM Edited February 1, 2019 by Raytheon My PC: i7-4770k GTX 1060 6Gb SSD 500 GB 16 RAM [sIGPIC]https://store.carrierbuilders.net/images/F-18SE-002.jpg[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felthat Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 P.D: I hope that offers with discounts in modules also apply to STEAM Standalone and steam versions receive discounts and sale periods but are separate. As far as i could see ED tries to keep them fairly close so for example while we have lunar sale on standalone, there's a high chance for dcs sale on steam starting tomorrow (there's gonna be lunar sale too). You can buy modules on steam and use them in standalone version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
