Mustang Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I'm playing with an unmodified version of the 1.2.8 open beta. What other changes, like the one proposed above, should I be using to achieve an enhanced graphical experience? Should I use SweetFX with DCS? I'd recommend this one to start with http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=113374 and it's fine to use SweetFX with 1.2.8, just bare in mind that when reporting bugs you should always be on a clean unmodded copy, otherwise feel free to use mods :)
blackbelter Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Now the change log of RC3 is released. I didn't get the chance to report the bug in the airspeed indicator in Su-33. The airspeed indicated by the gauge and that displayed on the HUD differ by about 100 km/h. Also the fuel quantity gauge is buggy. After a full in-air-refueling, the displayed fuel quantity is 50%. Maybe there is no bug here; maybe I just don't know how to correctly read this one... The user manual pretends that the fuel gauge in Su-33 is still the same as that in Su-27, so nothing new there.

ENO Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 I know about this trick: "branch": "openbeta", But what I'm not sure about and maybe someone can help me with is I've left my laptop out of the open beta and wanted to do some mission editing in it instead of swapping the files between builds- I've been trying to update it using the above trick, and it says it updates the version to the latest but then when I click into the SP version it shows the 127 version. I suspect it's because I didn't get the FIRST version download... then the second then the third. Anyone got any hints on how to do them in sequence (if that is in fact the problem)?

Normal branch is 'release'. NOTE: this will NOT switch Saved Games folder - it depends on the contents of 'dcs_variant.txt' file. Anyway, I'd like to see your autoupdate_log.txt. And, please, check the properties->version of the dcs.exe. Edited April 25, 2014 by c0ff Dmitry S.

ED Team c0ff Posted April 25, 2014 ED Team Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) autoupdate.cfg file is missing, for the updater it means that nothing is installed it said DO NOT EDIT for a reason. to fix: dcs_updater.exe install WORLD <mod1> <mod2> ... where <modX> are update_id's of your modules. install will pickup the files you already have in place.

ENO Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Lol I know I know. I also thought it said "repair" for a reason ;) On a serious note though- I'm looking at the auto config file so I wonder if I captured the wrong actions in that log- ie the part where I restored everything. I'll do my process again and paste it. --- Log file: C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\autoupdate_log.txt === Log opened UTC 2014-04-25 13:42:51 INFO : DCS_Updater/2.3.9.56 (Windows NT 6.2.9200; Win64; en-CA) INFO : cmdline: "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin\DCS_updater.exe" --apply update C:\Users\Eno\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS\update_info.json 1.2.8.27125.413 STATUS: Initializing...

ED Team c0ff Posted April 25, 2014 ED Team Posted April 25, 2014 Lol I know I know. I also thought it said "repair" for a reason ;) Hmm, that's right, repair should try to restore the config file...
