dburne Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Never tried http but if source files are the same I don't imagine it would start over. It did when 2.0 was first released. Maybe it has changed since.

Wallace_Actual Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Has anyone figured out how to go from 2.2 to 2.5? I just installed new updater and am hoping that works. Someone mention putting something in the command line for 2.2. Has this been confirmed and how is it done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonDrapr Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Sorry, but this current "arrangement" is completely confusing for new users?! They go to the "Download/DCS World" page and all they see is "2.1 Early Access" and "1.5" ... none of those are explicitly mentioned in this Forum thread - if they even GET to find this forum page (clicking on the News article link). @USSR_Rik talks in his post about "1.5.8 Open Beta" and "2.2.0 Open Alpha" - none of them are on the actual Download page. You are shooting yourselves in the foot here, imho. New, people, who are interested and want to experience what they just saw on YouTube are going to give up, even before their first download? I promoted the 2.5 Teaser Trailer on social media and have to explain now how to 'get the 2.5 version'. That's not how you market your game, successfully. I am not looking for you to explain things to ME, I am telling you, how the most simple things - if not done 'correctly' - hurt badly, what you want to accomplish: new players. New customers.

If you are on 1.5 stable release you have to update to beta first. There is a thread with all the current version numbers..look through here.

Hi where is a post or information that says that a clean installer for 2.5 Alpha will be available tommorow ??, I dont want to look back through 58 pages of this thread. As I cant now install 1.5.8 beta as it seems it been removed then this would be the only and quickest way for me to move to the 2.5 Alpha as I dont want to wait another 2weeks while its tested.

Tomorrow is a scheduled release of a beta that may be more accessible Customer since Flanker 2.5, here. I just upgraded to a new computer yesterday and was caught reinstalling all of DCS flavors. Sans the Open Beta, it turns out. I don't think that a new installer will be available tomorrow. I think it's going to be weeks before we see that.

taxman1 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Well I just spent an hour trying all kinds of things, I have the 1.5.8 beta and if the 2.5 update from the beta is now removed I'll just need to wait. Also if the 2.5 beta updater from 1.5.8 was available then when it checked the files it would have a message stating that it is unable to update. So for now no update for me.
