Whoot!

It is awesome! Got a server running.

[DD_Fenrir]

Oh dear God it's good... so, very, very good....

[Jediteo]

I know!

[T_O_A_D]

I'm confused DCS is free, and you pay for the P-51 correct?

[DD_Fenrir]

Bingo! Got it in one Todd.

[T_O_A_D]

thanks

I have already got DCS Black Shark and A10 Warthog via Steam. Do I need the DCS world aswell as Mustang?

[Jediteo]

Download the A10 module and DCS world and you should be able to fly that with us

If you want the fly the mustang in a mission, just buy, download and install that module in DCS World.

DCS World is the core game, containing all the units etc.

The individual modules contain the cockpit data and such, thereby, you can fly in any mission provided you have at least 1 of the planes types.

Although I can heartily recommend the Mustang, sure is the nicest prop aircraft I have seen in a game.

[Sid]

Right...so Steam versions aren't any good as they can't be directed to work with 'World'?

[Jediteo]

They are, well the codes rather. All you need to do Sid is to download DCS world and the modules and you can copy the serial code from Steam.

I bought my DCS warthog that way.

[Sid]

Great - that's what I'm going to try. I'll download world and see what happens

[Jediteo]

Sweet, I'll be on TS if anyone wants some help.

Just be wary, the torque of the 'stang is like riding a bucking bronco if you just push the throttle. You have to treat the old girl nicely or she will bite your face off.

[B16Enk]

Hmm..

Payday Friday..

Guess I'll be making a purchase that day

[B16Enk]

Possible client exploding during cold start fixed.

Damn that sounds painful, and too realistic.. We are the 'clients' aren't we?

[Jediteo]

Smoking and airplanes full of ammo and fuel do not mix Rog.
