LordWizard Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Hi. I have a problem... I'm stuck with 1.2.8 version and my updater wont start uploading new files.. I tried with ''Update DCS World'' exe file but only checks for update - window pop up for few seconds than disappear... I tried to repair the game and didn't help... Should I uninstall the game, than download new 1.2.11 files? Is that the only way? I have a bad internet, so Im not happy to download 8gigs again :P and I want to fly new Su-27 :) Please :helpsmilie: Salute
mvsgas Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 It happens to me when ever a new update is release. I am not sure but I think is because to many people trying to download at the same time. To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..
mwd2 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 The update is live, now. Go into the start menu / ED / DCS World / Update DCS World DCS World check only once a day after updates!

Archer7 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I can't update either... Something happened the first time I launched DCS but the version number is still 33866 and now attempting to update does basically nothing.

cichlidfan Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Starting DCS World will only check for updates if it has been 24hrs since the last check.

LordWizard Posted November 11, 2014 Author Posted November 11, 2014 Ok, downloading update right now :) Tnx for all replies, Salute
cichlidfan Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Nope. Try again. I downloaded the complete set of install files for World and all modules already, instead.

Archer7 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) What is the latest version? I have 33866 at the end but Su-27 asks for 33921. I downloaded the complete set of install files for World and all modules already, instead. I'm not sure how that's going to help... install everything all over again? Edit: it seems I am updated already (electric switches are in A-10A controls menu)... it's just that the Su-27 module asks for a newer version. Edit2: Ah... it seems I have all the new documentation and missions and everything so no need to install the module as well but it's still strange. Edited November 11, 2014 by Archer7 1
DackSter94 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 it's just that the Su-27 module asks for a newer version. Yep, same here LOOK MA, NO HOOK
Call911 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Yeah this is wierd i downloaded the update after starting DCSW. It appears the download went thru as usual started the game an could'nt connect to servers in MP. Left game checked my game version is still @ 1.2.10.32582 for update that should be 1.11.... Attempted update thru root directory(start menu) ran updater there an same thing.
DackSter94 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) I was having trouble with updating after 1.5 hours or so since update was out. I don't know if it was a coincidence or not but I set my computer clock few hours forward and it worked after that. Still Su-27 won't install on that Just did time forward trick again and it worked once more. In that C:\Users\?????\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS folder you can find autoupdate log. There i found this line "Skipping update check, only 0.1 hours passed since the last one." i guess thats why it works Edited November 11, 2014 by DackSter94 LOOK MA, NO HOOK
gavagai Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) I downloaded the complete set of install files for World and all modules already, instead. Yes, but we're trying to get the updater to work.:) Me neither. Updater just starts DCS in version 1.2.10. Edit: Working now I deleted the DCS Folder in C:\Users\????\AppData\Local\Temp and run again the update That works, thanks!

Archer7 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Deleting DCS Folder in C:\Users\????\AppData\Local\Temp\DCS and updating again did the trick!
Art-J Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Nothing like it here either. I was surprised though to have two updates downloading, first a couple of hundreds of MB and the second one, 30-something MB an hour later. Not a fresh install, but updated old one. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

uboats Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 What is this about? Did you do a fresh install of v1.2.11? if the installation is completely fresh (include dx and vc library), it could require reboot. but if only the refresh install of dcs itself, I didn't see this window [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] My DCS Mods, Skins, Utilities and Scripts | Windows 10 | i7-4790K | GTX 980Ti Hybrid | 32GB RAM | 3TB SSD | | TM Warthog Stick | CH Pro Throttle + Pro Pedal | TIR5 Pro | TM MFD Cougar | Gun Camera: PrtScn |

Abburo Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Looks like you just reinstalled your video drivers... oops, but they are not requesting restart anymore since some time ago... well... maybe is the Ubuntu version of DCS :D, with worms embedded :) Romanian Community for DCS World HW Specs: AMD 7900X, 64GB RAM, RTX 4090, HOTAS Virpil, MFG, CLS-E, custom
outlawal2 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I guess I don't really get the question. NEarly every windows application in existence asks you to reboot when you install the app... Sooo??? (If you had done an update I could understand the question, but you already said was a scratch install so I am not getting your question..) "Pride is a poor substitute for intelligence."

cichlidfan Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I guess I don't really get the question. NEarly every windows application in existence asks you to reboot when you install the app... DCS has never done this, not even a clean install on a new OS, and most modern applications don't do it either.
