the patch is now also over 2GB, maybe they crammed in more goodies :)

And guys please, it's better that they test and try things now with a 'small' patch now so that things work when DCSW 2 and the NTTR is released. If you want them to move to steam, you'll have to accept that 30% of their income will be spent on DRM and downloads instead of nice things like new planes and maps.

Since the torrent technology is already here, I would not ditch it completely. For the future, why not have it as an option for the user to choose whether he prefers the server download or peer download? (Like in the other popular sim from Russia.)

At the end of the torrent it uncompressed it then installed. I think it was the same size either way, just not packaged/compressed quite the same.

I have an issue:

 

The patch downloaded successfuly, the loading bar went all the way to the end and then the window switched to "Waiting for update to complete" or something like that. Then it hanged like that for over half an hour, until I had to manually terminate it in task manager as it was obviously stuck forever. Now when I go to open DCS the updater opens again and is stuck on "Initializing". What the hell?

After some 5 hours on a 100 Mbit optic link, I am still only at 661 MB, now downloading only at 100 kb/s with only 38 peers while uploading at 1-2Mb/s, I think I won't be able to update today :(

2.6.2.25 should be better. cancel and restart, please.

it will go http if torrents are cancelled, but please give it 2-3 minutes and report how it goes.

thanks

 

btw, 2.6.2.25 will squeeze the most of the partially downloaded torrents so it makes sense to try even if you go http then.

http works normally than torrent

 

it depends. 2.6.2.25 reached 2-8 MB/s here, so it's the question of tweaking the beast. thanks for massive testing btw. your patience and understading is really appreciated.

I think we need the option to pause the downloading. Here the same problem.

 

cancel in fact does this. it does not pick up until next day though, unless forced. a bug to be fixed. thanks for reminding.

I stopped and started again the update from torrent.

Down speed increased from 200 KB/s to 0.8 MB/s, then it went down to 70 KB/s, and now 0.7 MB/s.

So on average it's fluctuating between 0.4 and 0.8 MB/s

After hitting cancel and waiting just under 10 min for it to disconnect from the swarm the updater asked me to try http method... I didn't notice it the first time i cancelled but its much much much faster now.
