ATS DLC Help
So I was playing ATS on a different account. I bought it on this account plus all DLCs recently, I was on another account before. I noticed that I had some missing DLC. I checked what was missing, and I dont have access to the Steampunk and Dragon DLC. I moved the files to a USB and onto this computer and it didn't fix the issue. Its a fresh install on a new computer. Any way I can fix this? I know the DLC was limited time, so am I just screwed here?

To clarify, I have the SCS files from my other computer, it just isnt activated for this account

Not the same Steam account so Steam won't validate the files and won't allow them to be used by the game.

If you own it legitimately just on a different account, then simply copy the two files from the install folder and place them in your mod folder and run them as mods.

Don't forget to keep them updated manually though through your other account or you may run into issues when the game updates.

Assuming you are using the same ATS profile/account despite being on a different Steam Account then you should make sure all files are copied over correctly and make sure you tick the steampunk/dragon DLC in the box under the play button.

If it is a seperate ATS account then each of the DLC are tied to the ATS account and you will not have them.

It is the same ATS account. I copied the files over to the proper directory, but it doesn't show up, and all my saves say they are "Missing optional DLC"

Thanks, it worked perfectly! I got a new desktop, and only played ATS on my alt account. I went to go buy it and was like "Oh dang, that's pre-order DLC". Thankfully, running the files as mods worked perfectly.

What is the info on this DLC? I can't find it on the store page for pre-order, or any info on it.

Neither the Steampunk nor the Dragon DLCs are available for purchase. Steampunk was given as an incentive for following the game prior to release and Dragon was an award for the special event from Xmas 2016.

Dragon is for sale currently on Steam of .99 cents... 50% off regular price of $1.99

Good necro. However, the Dragon Design DLC wasn't released for purchase until 11 August, 2018, despite the store page showing a release date of 7 Feb, 2017.
