Multiple Installation Problem on Steam
Posted: 12 Jul 2021, 13:47
So any of you who are on Steam:
I installed Steam on another computer so that I can play DCS on it while away from my main PC. It runs, but non-ED modules such as the F-14 will not let me into the cockpit. I can view the plane in external view, view it on the F10 map , but that's it. Apparently it won't validate the license since I have it on another computer. The ED ones (such as F/A-18) work just fine.
So anyone know how to fix this? I know you can't play 2 Steam games at the same time without it logging off your other account, or unless you have an authorized computer. but I even shut down DCS and Steam on my main rig before firing everything up on the laptop.
I tried a few fixes from the web such as shown here:

Nothing worked. I also did an uninstall/reinstall and file validation. It just thinks I don't have a license. Any other ideas?
