Hello DCS people

 

According to news letter i received 30 mins ago my DCS world 1.5 should be now updated to version 1.5.5

 

However for some reason im still getting message that mine is 1.5.4.57288.170, even after force repair ( updater refused to update, my game is up to date according to him ) :

Any ideas?

 

Also any news about unification of all those versions into one? Im getting slightly out of SSD space and running double settings for modules is annoying as hell - each time i adjust one of commands i need to do same in other installations as well. Very annoying and time consuming and ofc im prone to making mistakes with all this because it is a bit chaotic.

Wait a bit... how?

News letter says it is. Are you sure?

Why publishing news which are false?

 

 

 

BTw, why rushing the news letter which doesnt say anything important short of SORRY we are late with everything we are working on with atm ? :D

 

EDIT: ok, i just had to be sure that it is not my updater acting ( it has history of ignoring updates for some reason). Thank you

Just got the update, so it's live now, at least for some locations. Shouldn't take long for remaining customers to get it.

 

As for controller commands, You know You can just copy "Input" folder from Your "Saved Games" location between various installs and it usually works OK, don't You?

News Letter Says "Today", not "Right Now".

 

Anywho, the Update should be live now.

Sorry mate, but I don't understand the "fiddling" part. You literally copy contents of a single folder to another folder. About 20 seconds of work when You remember where they're located, up to 1 minute when not and that's it.

 

I can't imagine how "more" fiddling it is compared to manually redoing controls in the game (which I also hate BTW). It's Your call, though.

If you ignore the update to the Beta release included everything to take the F-5 out of beta, and the rear cockpit for the Hawk functionality, plus the tweaks added to other modules along the way, then yes, the latest update is a step backwards!

 

As for getting negative news regarding the projected release date for 2.5 and the Hornet - would you rather they kept us in the dark? Sure it is unwelcome news, but it is nevertheless news.

 

All updates appear after the accompanying newsletter, and all updates appear around this time of day. There's nothing to panic about.

If it doesn't auto update by executing your desktop icon, go into Start/Programs/Eagle Dynamics and select whichever version(s) of DCS World/Update DCS World.

 

When finished updating you can start DCS from your desktop and it "should be" up-to-date.

SummaBeech.. This works now? I had no idea. LOL, guess I missed that. I remember copy/pasting between the two didn't work originally. Never saw that that was a fix. Derp. Glad I surfed this therad. :doh:
