NineLine Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/support/faq/500/#1510447 How to transfer keyless DCS modules purchased on STEAM? Please note, all future DCS World DLC released on Steam from 12th May 2017 on will now use Steam Keys instead of Star-Force keys. Here are some modules released on Steam after 12-May-2017: DCS: M-2000C; DCS: Nevada map; DCS: Spitfire; DCS: AJS-37; DCS: Normandy map; DCS: WW2 Assets pack; DCS: Su-33; DCS: AV-8B Night Attack V/STOL; DCS: F/A-18C; DCS: Persian Gulf map as well as many new campaigns starting from the Museum Relic campaign. You always can find the date in the Steam store - Sort by Release date These modules can be bound and activated on the DCS World e-shop version from the site. To do this, on the DCS website, on the profile page, find a special Steam account block please use the link: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/personal/profile/ 1) You need to link the Steam account to your DCS account. After clicking on the "BIND" button, you will be redirected to the Steam website, where you must log in and agree to share publicly available information from your profile with us. 2) After logging in to the Steam site, you return to our site and, if successful, the "GET LICENSES" button will be available. Click the "Get licenses" button. 3) As a result, you can obtain a list of the products whose licenses that: 1. Already have a DCS account (Steam or not Steam) 2. Can be transferred to your account from Steam 3. Can not be transferred because they are in different types of protection 4) Click the "Transfer licenses" button. As a result, the licenses available for transfer will be bound to the DCS account. 5) When you re-enter this page, the Steam license list will be displayed. 6) You can request licenses again to replenish them if you purchased new DCS products on Steam. New licenses also can be bound, as in the previous paragraph. 7) When you click the "Unbind" button, all your Steam transferred licenses will be revoked and the binding removed. * Display name in Steam: "your name" - is not a login but rather information permitted by the Steam user to display on a public profile. Please note that the transferred products will now be available in your Standalone install and also remain available in your Steam Version. You may also only transfer from Steam to Standalone, Standalone to Steam transfer is not available.

Mandulis Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I get this "Following products licenses can be transferred to your DCS account: A-10C Tactical Training Qualification Campaign DCS: AV-8B Night Attack V/STOL DCS: F/A-18C Hornet DCS: NEVADA Test and Training Range Map DCS: Persian Gulf Map These products licenses can not be transferred from Steam accounts at the moment: A-10C Advanced Aircraft Training Qualification Campaign A-10C Basic Flight Training Campaign DCS: A-10C Warthog " Any idea when or if they'll be able to transfer?

PsiBurr Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I re-bought all those modules when I switched to stand alone version towards the end of last year. @Nineline - will it be possible for me to gift my double ups should I wish too later down the track?

Ramsay Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 (edited) I dont understand why ONE warthog training mission is available to transfer but not the PLANE or the other two training missions. lol The plane and two training missions that can't be transferred probably use 'Star Force' - if they do you should be able to use the Steam Star Force 'Key' to register the copies with your ED account. Edit: Just tried to register the Bf-109 key - seems that feature has been removed :( Edited January 9, 2019 by Ramsay i9 9900K @4.7GHz, 32GB DDR4, RTX2070 Super 8GB, 1TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 1+1TB SSD, MSFFB2 joystick, X52 Pro Throttle, TIR5, Win 10 Pro x64, 1920X1080 Link to post Share on other sites

You can send a ticket to see if its possible to gift your current standalone modules, but I am not sure that it is.

itstheLIKWID Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I honestly am so grateful for this as I didn't know about the standalone version until the F14 tomcat pre-order not being compatible with steam. I almost re-bought the Hornet but being able to transfer it now is awesome, very happy!! Thank you Link to post Share on other sites

Черный Дракул Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Most of my Steam stuff has transferred. Still, on another attempt I got: These products licenses can not be transferred from Steam accounts at the moment: A-10C Operation Piercing Fury Campaign A-10C The Enemy Within Campaign Both are listed in the EShop as Keyless products. As far as I understand, keyless should transfer with no problem. Am I wrong? Also, there's a big "DELETE" button on the bottom of the page. If it's pressed, everything that's bought is lost? They are not vulching... they are STRAFING!!! :smartass::thumbup: Link to post Share on other sites

Ramsay Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Can Phantom 2000C also be transferred to the official version? Yes, the Steam Mirage 2000C can be added to your 'standalone' account. It has no serial number. How should I operate it?

Horns Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 You may also only transfer from Steam to Standalone, Standalone to Steam transfer is not available. Any reason to expect that transferring the other way would become available in the foreseeable future?

Yurgon Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Both are listed in the EShop as Keyless products. I think the answer lies in this part: [...] as well as many new campaigns starting from the Museum Relic campaign. The Enemy Within and Piercing Fury are probably just too old. But as NineLine said, eventually all modules should be transferable regardless of release date, so hopefully it should work at some point in the future. Link to post Share on other sites
Worrazen Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) I think the plan is to eventually convert them all. But what about existing users too? Not only new. I guess the transition period is good, but I think it would feel weird if I had to deal with keys 10 year later when most of things are kelyess, just because I purchased it before XYZ date. As in, complete and total conversion to keyless. For the Standalone in my case, since I don't have nor plan to use Steam for anything DCS.
