Forcing update

[razorseal]

Hey everyone,

 

I'm currently on 1.2.16.43180 and I was getting the update via the updater until my system crashed due to something unrelated...

 

now when I launch DCS world, it's skipping the updates.

 

Is there a way for me to force the updater, or do I have to uninstall EVERYTHING and reinstall??? :helpsmilie:

 

Appreciate some help!

 

perhaps there is a way to launch the updater manually

[Sryan]

on the desktop, hit the start key. type in "DCS update" you should see a function that forces DCS to update

[Faelwolf]

Assuming you are using windows: All Programs> Eagle Dynamics> DCS World> Update DCS World

[apolloace]

Goto (on Win 7) START MENU->All Programs->Eagle Dynamics->DCS World->Update DCS World.

 

That should do it.

 

:) :)

If that doesn't work try going into the DCS World bin file then with your mouse over and empty spot in the folder hold Lshift and right click. In the menu that opens click "Open command window here" in command window type DCS_Updater.exe then enter. That worked for me when I had issues. You can also run a repair this way by typing DCS_Updater.exe repair

 

Hope it helps :thumbup:

Got it... Thanks guys!

 

Installed 2.0 as well, but that seems like a dedicated DCSW for nevada only, which I don't have yet. I figured maybe they're all combined already

[Sryan]

you can grab the 1.5 client though. It has a lot of the new stuff. It's going to take quite some time before the current map is ready to be ported into DCSW 2.

I have both versions (1.5 & 2.0). Web site says "2.0.1" is released, but my '2.0' still shows "2.0.0" even after purchasing the new A-10C campaign. (I don't have steam versions). I used the 'DCS 2.0 Updater', still shows 'updated to 2.0.0.45...' Am I missing something here?

[Corrigan]

Has anybody been able to get 2.0.1?

To update you might want to grab this. It's great and makes updating and repairing both DCS Modules and DCS World a breeze.

I had to do the same thing with the update: I was reading the A-10 Red flag mission cards while launching/ updating and the updater did not finish as it was attempting to delete the 3 mission cards I was reading.
