Must Module Version match DCS World Version ?

[Igor4U]

Hi All,

 

Need some Help - Have Question.

 

I have DCS World Install Files (7+ GB) current last week of May:

 

DCS World Version: 1.2.8.27203.421-315

 

and I'm ready to Install the Base DSC World

 

 

Just bought the P-51D Module and noticed the Version updated within the last Week or so; to:

P-51D Version is P-51D_1.2.8.27915.434-316.exe

 

 

QUESTION - Will P-51D Module Install and work with slightly older DCS World Version ?

Or do I have to spend all Day re-downloading those massive files ?

 

 

Thanx in Advance of Help

 

BVR

DCS Should Update to 27915 when you run DCS_Updater,

 

DCS Should check for an Update every 24 hours when you launch DCS World.

OK- Thanks !

 

So DCS Updater just downloads and installs the files that have been updated (changed or added); it doesn't go get the entire 7+ GB ?

The Amount it has to download depends on how many modules you have installed and how old your current version is.

 

it'll prolly be a few hundred MBs for you.

...and you won't need to "install" any modules! Simply use the module manager in DCS World to activate / buy modules. When launching a mission the DRM kicks in, then enter the key you bought and all updates will be taken care off, by the auto updater.

SOmetimes the best way to activate is through the 'protect.exe located in the module bin folder

DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\A-10C\bin
