Procedure for Activating BOS When buying a new PC

[lennycutler]

I am going to buy a new PC in the near future.

 

I have the early access BOS installation since it became available on my current PC.

 

What is the correct procedure to get it up and running on the new PC.

 

Do I simply sign into my account from the new PC, and download and install?....or can I just copy over the BOS directory from the Old PC to the new PC?

 

Appreciate any advice.

S!

 

 It should work off the bat, just download and start playing. I do not think BoS makes hardware checks as Windows does, but as long as your credentials (login/password) are correct you are good to go.

Your game is already activated, so :

 

Download it, install it, fill in email and password, and play.

Yup - all you need is your email address and password, and you should be able to play. It might be worth copying the IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\input folder across to avoid having to set up your controls again.

Thanks for the good advice

Yup I can confirm. I changed my motherboard and GPU (but kept my old CPU). Steam needed confirmation because my system changed, so did DCS World, but IL-2 BoS didn't bother so it should do just fine.
