boedha68 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) Go to installed modules and press on DRM. Maybe the system ASK for serial. Go to campains tick on uh1 and you can start iT up.

thestardawg Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 I googled that setting and I don't have that icon in game. If you are talking about the one that should appear in the top middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boedha68 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 If you purchased the campaign on steam and are trying to run it on the DCS World standalone, you will have to go to your profile on the Eagle Dynamics user webpage use the check serial number feature and input the steam key number, then assign it to your DCS account. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/ https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=113587 Regards, Ian. Sorry mad dog. Steam and ED keys cannot merge together any more, This is like a year or so. Only old keys from steam to ED.

boedha68 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Thx for the help. I'm launching it from Steam at the moment. Says stable 1.5.6. Updates on? the stable version on ED is 1.5.7. Set DCS in steam on BETA. Verify files on steam?!? Can you see you have the campain it on steam? Log in steam with your username and password. When you look to dcs in shop, you scroll too dlc. By the campaign name you see it's green or a message that you already have it or not? Do have bought the module UH-1? Maybe stupid question, but? If you want to fly the campaign, you must have the module UH-1. Hope this helps. Otherwise you should ask the question again in steam! :thumbup: New system:I9-9900KS, Kingston 128 GB DDR4 3200Mhz, MSI RTX 4090, Corsair H150 Pro RGB, 2xSamsung 970 EVO 2Tb, 2xsamsung 970 EVO 1 TB, Scandisk m2 500 MB, 2 x Crucial 1 Tb, T16000M HOTAS, HP Reverb Professional 2, Corsair 750 Watt.
