So the moral of the story is those who may have deleted 1.2 have a problem if in fact 1.2 will serve as the "core" of the future updates that currently make up 1.5 and 2.0, i.e,, the new graphics engine and the Nevada map. In other words, the 1.2 stable version is the only version going forward that will be updated to ultimately 2.0 "stable". Correct? ,

I'm running 8xQ with GTX 970 and don't see the problem. (Russian Jet Team skin).

Understand it's Alpha but the reason for releasing as such is to find and report bugs. No sound or buggy sound certainly qualifies, don't you agree?

No in-cockpit sound while flying the L-39C with no gun sight selected in options. Audio sliders all 100% except Music (75%). No other problems with aircraft sound or general sound in Sim. Win 10, GTX 970, 8gb RAM, BOSE USB Sound

Ramstein, I upgraded to Win 10 from Win 7 and my DCS installation ran fine after the upgrade, no clean install required. I imagine Win 8.1 to Win 10 will behave the same.

Ok, understand. Thanks.

I'll look at the MI-8 example again. What is clear is I won't be attempting any of these mods until I understand what's going on with the description.lua file. Thanks.

Sorry but the MI8 Chinese example is anything but clear. There are many more uncommented entries in the description.lua than there are files for the Chinese cockpit. That's true for other examples I've looked at. I'm not an artist or skinner but I would expect to see a one for one relationship between the uncommented entries in the description.lua and the files modified for whatever language is being implemented. That's obviously not the case for the examples I've seen.

I'm not clear at all as to how to modify the description.lua. I've looked at the L39 and MIG 15 examples that are in 1.5 and it is in no way clear what has to match between the DDS files and the content of the description.lua. Can you explain the mechanics between the DDS files and what has to be in the description.lua? Anyhow, thanks for the response.

Yes, it's the 11-23 OB update. The description.lua is right out of your zip file attached to the first post. For the Su-25T

Thanks Devrim. I'm anxious to see the update to see where I'm going wrong. My attempt looks very much like your KA-50 "Ricardo" that loads via JSGME. For the life of me I can't see the problem.

Hi U-boats, I tried to create a mod loaded via JSGME using your description.lua and Devrim's Su-25T files as you have in your example above for an English cockpit. I couldn't get it to work. The mod loaded ok but the cockpit was still in Russian but with graphic corruption. Can you put together an example for the Su-25T and upload it somewhere where I cn take a look at it? (Files are apparently too big to attach here) Thanks.

Happy 240th and Semper Fi!

Ok, BIGNEWY, deleting the servicer lua file from scripts did it. All appears well now. Thanks again for your help and if you have a minute, please describe the problem we just fixed in case I run into it again.

I run the Beta on "e" drive. Is that where scripts is located? Ok, found scripts on e drive and deleted server lua..standby.

I had all mods disabled for the update. What do you need me to do with the Scripts folder? I don't have a Scripts folder in OpenBeta???

BIGNEWY, Here you go. Thanks for the help. autoupdate_log.zip dcs.zip

Need help guys. After applying the Open Beta update today, I can't start the game using desktop shortcut, start menu shortcut or double clicking on DCS.exe in game directory. I managed to start it once and had to activate my MIG21. Nothing happens when shortcut or double clicking the .exe. Running Win 10 x64. Non Beta copy of game runs fine and Open Beta ran fine prior to the update. I repaired the Open Beta copy to no avail. Strange and I'm stumped. Any help appreciated.

Same Problem here. Less than 1 fps. Running Win 10 64bit with GTX 970. Obviously unplayable.

Not sure what your problem is.. I'm running Win 10/Edge and can reload the DCS home page using F5 without problem for as many times as I care to.

For those that need it, here's Mustang's No Tree Shadow mod JSGME Ready. Mustangs_No_Tree_Shadows.rar

In using NVidia DSR, the game was set to a high resolution and the NVidia driver processed the game hd image and scaled the video image to the normal full screen monitor display. There was no need to set the resolution in Windows to the same as the game. One enjoyed the high resolution game video display detail using the "normal" monitor resolution. In the 1.5 beta, when you set the game resolution beyond the normal monitor full screen resolution, the game image expands per the higher resolution selected. Somehow, the game is not talking to NVidia DSR. The image should "scale" lower to avoid windows and the monitor having to display the higher resolution image. As I said in my post above, DCS 12.6 handled NVidia DSR without problem. I have yet to see any acknowledgement that this is a problem in DCS 1.5. If it is not considered a problem, please explain the difference between 1.5 and 12.6 regarding Nvidia DSR.

I have not tried this with Win 10 but look in Settings - Update and Security and you'll see Recovery on the left hand side. Click that and you'll see two options. The first reinstalls Win 10 giving you the option to keep your files or start fresh. I imagine you'll want to keep you files.

Second that and add that all clickable cockpit switches, knobs, etc., should have an associated key mapping. I noticed that the CB's associated with the start-up procedure, for example Battery, Inverters and Radio (ROD) CB switches have no key mapped in Options/Controls. Makes it impossible to create a HOTAS or Joystick Button mapped to the function. Please fix.

I too have this problem. Normal monitor and game resolution is 1920x1080. Using NVidia DSR, set game resolution to 3x monitor resolution and maintained aspect ratio. Video does not scale to monitor resolution but resizes image to 3x monitor resolution. Obviously needs to be fixed. DCS 12.6 had no problem with NVidia DSR.
