[RESOLVED]Updater problem

[Gudgey]

Hi all

 

I have installed DCS World 1.5 and updated it to the latest version, and I'm now trying to install the A-10C module. I downloaded the module from the DCS website, but when trying to run the .exe it says:

 

'DCS World 1.2.15.43180 must be installed.'

 

 

....So, I moved the A-10C.exe into the D:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\bin folder, and tried ti install it from the CMD line, but when I run this command:

 

'DCS_Updater.exe install A-10C_1.2.16.43180.9-9.exe'

 

.....the installation begins, but then this error message appears:

 

'sorry, web-installs are temporarily suspended. Use the full installer, please.'

 

....I click on 'Okay' and the installation closes.

 

I thought I was using the full installer? I've tried running from the command prompt and double clicking the Updater.exe? Any ideas how I get a round this?

 

Thanks.

Hi Gudgey

 

do not download the modules from the website, they are still the release version. use the module manager in game.

also a guide for using the command prompt to update and instal modules can be found here

Thanks for replying so quickly. :thumbup:

 

When I use the module manager in game, I select 'Buy' on the A-10 module and then it opens up a webpage and I select 'download', but I'm sure that this is the same page that I downloaded the .exe from?

 

I don't have a login for DCS as I've never purchased anything directly. My copy of A-10 is an early one on a DVD. I've installed that, but that loads directly into A-10C and not DCS World.

 

Because I have never purchased anything directly, I have no account to login to from the DCS menu screen. I though that I'd be able to create one, download the module and then if required enter my serial number?

OK

 

Please register here http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/

 

you can then bind your A-10c key to your account by using the License check on your profile page

 

once that is done you can login in game and it will download your A-10c
