Le_Jaguar Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Hi, in addtition of my DCS 1.58 openrelease, I newly install DCS 1.5.8 openbeta, i beg you know why... But my release version was before an openbeta, so the directory in user/saved games/DCS.openbeta/ was the same for both version 1.58 release and 1.58 openbeta. Can we create a new directory and change the default directory in config files ?

MrFies Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 YES!!! Changelog: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=200724 but where can we download it ?
QuiGon Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 but where can we download it ? It's an auto update for the Open Beta. So if you have the 1.5.8 open beta installed, just launch it and it will update automatically. If you don't have the Open Beta installed, you will have to wait for the standalone installer to be available, which will take about a day or so.

dburne Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 but where can we download it ? Run the updater for your Open Beta install.

Dudikoff Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 If you have DCS Open Beta installed, you can run the update now.

QuiGon Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 so is there no way to get 2.5 today if I have nothing ( beta 1.5.8) installed ? You can try to run the updater with DCS_Updater.exe update @openbeta That should do the trick.

dburne Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 It gave me a choice to uninstall Open Alpha after it finishes copying the files it needs from it. I am at 6% downloaded so far - speed is slowing some, guess more folks are catching on lol.

But I'm assuming you should be able to select nttr from within 2.5 if it finished copying stuff over.
