Is the 721_1200 the 727-100 Exterior Model?
And is the 722_1200 the 727-200 Exterior Model?

If they are, then they won't work with the the v2.4 Base Pack.

For me, it works like this:
csp721_2400.exe = 727-100 Base Pack
csp722_2400.exe = 727-200 Expansion Model
csp723_2400.exe = 727 Freighter Expansion Model (727-100F/200F).

Notice that they are all v2.4. I'm not sure if there is a discount for them if you bought the Exterior Models, so you might be up for €9.99 each. :(

---gads! mark...don't you ever sleep???..................ok, yes they are the exterior models...so why did i buy them, if they're useless????

---so i guess i'll have to buy the 727-200 expansion model.....


---but i installed just the base pack alone...and it doesn't work...no control....does it need the expansion model to make it work?

Is the Base Pack an upgrade? If it is, then you should install the 721_1200 then the 721_2400 upgrade to upgrade the Exterior Model to the Base Pack.

Yes you will need to buy the 727-200 v2.4. But it will only cost you €0.99! ;)

Check out the upgrade price here -> http://www.captainsim.com/products/x727/discount.html. ;D

You can do offline activation from the same computer that the aircraft is going to be installed on! I do it all the time, even though there are 4 computers in my computer room and they are all connect to the internet. :o

Four?!  :o Is that the Oz command centre of something?  :P

I'm a computer geek. My boys knew how to use computers before they learned how to talk. Well almost.

;D And that was my guess. If one actually calls the real Oz Centre (e.g.  Melbourne Centre), it's Mark who sets up things. Warning. He may never admit this. If he did, he would have to kill us. Just saying.  :o

But there's another theory. Since he has his new chair with the side stick and just admitted that a large part of the world's PC power is concentrated right at his home, there's a certain fear coming up. If the next thing he says is something like this.

We will know that he's about to take over the world.  8-)
