lazduc Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Spent 5.5 hours DL 1.5/2.0 and all the modules I have purchased onto my older system. 1.5 used 32gb. 2.0 used 61gb as module mgr picked what would work in each....I think. Since 1.5 is supposedly the stable version, why didn't module mgr not allow FC3 to load into it? How can I load FC3 into 1.5? ( It loaded into 2.0) 1.5 is loaded onto a 1TB hd in its own folder. Module mgr loaded the modules onto this folder. 2.0 is also loaded onto the same drive, different folder. Module mgr loaded everything I have purchased including NTTR, Viggen and what ever did not load into 1.5 that needed 2.0 specifications. Is there a list that shows what modules are compatible with what build? :book: I have not authorized any of the modules. My intention finally, is to transfer the two Folders that hold all of DCS on the old system on the 1tb drive and move the modules onto a ssd on the new system. ( I am thinking of getting a USB ssd and using that for the transfer. Once everything is on the ssd I can either run it on the New System or move it too another ssd that is in the new system.???) Whats the best way to do this? :thumbup: Once I have DCS on the new system I will authorize and run it for the first time. Today Fedx delivered my 2 1080ti mod2's which will replace the 2 1080ftw that are currently in the new system...that has yet to be turned on. Reason I made this move was to have the gpu power to run my 4k display 50in. And the VR. And other software. My thinking was to avoid conflict with starforce. Is it possible to DL DCS world with the two freebe aircraft and run it without starforce jumping in?? I think I will have to DL it onto another Folder and then run it separately. I will not load any modules into this just to use this to see how it runs. Does the free/trial version have all the latest graphics/repairs/updates ? Long story....I have only run Lock-on...never run anything newer. But have purchased almost all modules during the last 10 years. Laz :D
cichlidfan Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Since 1.5 is supposedly the stable version, why didn't module mgr not allow FC3 to load into it? Sorry for not getting a chance to answer your PM, so I will do it here. I don't know why FC3 would not install onto v1.5. It does for me. How can I load FC3 into 1.5? ( It loaded into 2.0) Don't know. 1.5 is loaded onto a 1TB hd in its own folder. Module mgr loaded the modules onto this folder. 2.0 is also loaded onto the same drive, different folder. Module mgr loaded everything I have purchased including NTTR, Viggen and what ever did not load into 1.5 that needed 2.0 specifications. Is there a list that shows what modules are compatible with what build? :book: No. The Viggen does not specify v2.0 only in the e-shop description and I don't own it so I am not sure about it's status with v1.5. I have not authorized any of the modules. My intention finally, is to transfer the two Folders that hold all of DCS on the old system on the 1tb drive and move the modules onto a ssd on the new system. ( I am thinking of getting a USB ssd and using that for the transfer. Once everything is on the ssd I can either run it on the New System or move it too another ssd that is in the new system.???) Whats the best way to do this? :thumbup: You will want to transfer it to an internal SSD on the new system. Running it from a USB drive will negatively impact performance. Once I have DCS on the new system I will authorize and run it for the first time. Today Fedx delivered my 2 1080ti mod2's which will replace the 2 1080ftw that are currently in the new system...that has yet to be turned on.

Is it possible to DL DCS world with the two freebe aircraft and run it without starforce jumping in?? I think I will have to DL it onto another Folder and then run it separately. I will not load any modules into this just to use this to see how it runs. Yes. You can download a second copy of DCS World and not install any modules. Just make sure to install it in a separate folder from the other installations. Does the free/trial version have all the latest graphics/repairs/updates ? Yes.

lazduc Posted May 6, 2017 Author Posted May 6, 2017 Thanks for the answers. I am changing the video cards. They are heavy. Will try and get this system running next week.
