DCS World 1.5 and 2.0 Discussion

This batch checks the updater every 5 seconds

Obviously my open beta install is C:\DCSWOpenBeta

You need to rename the current autoupdate_log.txt to something else also

 

New version also exits if updater already running. In case the logfile isn't written in 5 seconds.

 

echo off
:start
tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq DCS_updater.exe" 2>NUL | find /I /N "DCS_updater.exe">NUL
if "%ERRORLEVEL%"=="0" exit

if exist "C:\DCSWOpenBeta\autoupdate_log.txt" (
   echo file exists
   exit
) else (
   echo file doesn't exist
   start C:\DCSWOpenBeta\bin\DCS_updater.exe update    
)
timeout 5
goto start

 

I dont think thats ok, everytime youstart the updater, the Ed server needs to tell to the client that "no 1.5 is not out yet". If everyone would use that it wouldnt be much different than a ddos attack. Just relax and check the official update section.

Btw, the Mig-29 got a new 6DOF cockpit, but did it get update to flight modeling like Su-27S and F-15C got in same updates?

That's very odd because mountain time in Canada would be Alberta, Vancouver is Pacific time, same as California lol

No. No PFM for the MiG-29.

The aircraft 3D model is WIP.

no FM and external model are work in progress

A new exterior 3D model is in the works, and hopefully a new AFM/PFM as well. But there hasn't been any info as to when an AFM/PFM is being released... but it only makes sense for ED to update that, too.

AFAIK the DCS downloader use P2P already so people downloading it will distribute it to everyone else.

 

The DCS downloader does not create a server (otherwise my firewall would have asked me). It also does not open ports on the router using UPnP which it would have to do since almost every client sits behind a router using NAT. I don't know how akamai does it but normal torrents can't run silently without the user noticing. So no, the DCS downloader probably doesn't use P2P.

They have uploaded the beta branch of client to the steam, just let it on open beta, I've deleted the old client for many days, come on dude.

You can set it to 60 seconds or any other number of course. :)

With each new update release / introduction of new products increases the complexity of the project and, accordingly, is also growing at the time of its preparation for use. And I'm afraid does not grow in a linear relationship (("
