Hello All, Not sure if this is the correct board for this inquiry ? Not been able to fly online or otherwise for almost year, my problem is that all my FSX versions are now out of auto activation and Microsoft is now very unhelpful with any telephone activation either. Now its impossible to find a retailer with genuine copies for sale here in Europe,recently purchased two copies from a supposedly reputable dealer via Ebay but was cheated into receiving two dubious copies which had no activation available ) Steam editions do not seem to operate with the FSX addon scenery and aircraft. Question is ,is there any other simulator that will accept FSX addon s ? Is there such a thing as a " no cd prog software that can be applied " ? With so much U.K RAF addon scenery and aircraft, i am at a loss as to how to proceed with my hobby , certainly do not want to s[Mod - lovely stuff] all the years of saved software. Any advice most welcome ( [email protected] ) I guess i am not alone in this position, Is there any programme available that would install world scenery and maybe airports, to which addons could be applied and the entire installation tailored to the specific era one specified ?

There are a lot of Steam compitable addons out there, and many has been updated to be used with FSX Steam and you shouldn't have to pay for the addon again. I don't think there is a legal way to workaround the activation step.

Kenneth,

 

I have moved this post from General Discussion.

 

I have had no issues calling and talking to a representative in the UK and having the product activated. Make sure when you call them to state that the product is not installed or activated elsewhere.
