Now I know this is a rare event, but I have just had to remove 1.2 beta for 1.5 beta and in the process I am having to re-install all the modules...individually.

 

Would it be possible to have some sort of granularity on the installs? I mean, either check boxes to select the ones you wish to install, or an "install all" button?

 

Something so people don't have to click each one individually, wait for it to download and then wait for it to install and open DCS back up and then click on the next one?

 

This must be even more infuriating on slow internet connections where it takes an hour + to download each and every module. It would be much easier to tick everything you want, walk away and leave it for it to get on with it all.

As long as a module is tied to your account and it isn't installed on your specific version you are running, you should be able to go to the module manager, login, and be prompted to download/install the modules automatically via the auto-updater.

The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Well that didn't happen to me, I had to keep going in and pressing the install button on every one.

That appears to only happen the first time you run the Module Manager. When I installed the 1.5 OB, I had three (IIRC) modules that were not recognized as owned (for various reasons). I accepted the prompted install for the rest, but once I fixed the ownership issues with the others, I found the same situation.

 

The next time I started the MM, it did not prompt me. When I checked the first of the missing modules, the MM immediately prompted me to install it. Then I had to go back to the MM and check the next one, rinse, repeat, until they were all installed.

 

It wasn't a really big deal but it was somewhat annoying. It should be possible to select modules and then click an 'INSTALL SELECTED' button.
