=Mac= Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Torrenting 50 GB. I have only 15 GB left on my download folder on C:drive. It never checked for the 500GB E:drive. I am assuming it will crash when it runs out of space. We'll see.:( Edit: I don't care, really. If I have to uninstall everything (with deactivating everything) I will do it. I am just so happy that it's here now! Thanks, ED! The Hornet is best at killing things on the ground. Now, if we could just get a GAU-8 in the nose next to the AN/APG-65, a titanium tub around the pilot, and a couple of J-58 engines in the tail...

Nightwolf Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Well the installer said copying files from DCS 2 OpenAlpha, then proceeded to not to transfer anything, and is now downloading all 44Gb of stuff. Good thing I have 6 hours before I get home to let my slow internet chug away! Looking forward to more fun in the new version! "Fighter pilots have ice in their veins. They don't have emotions.

5e EVC Chappy Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 If you don't have the open beta installed, use the updater with DCS_Updater.exe update @openbeta to convert your 1.5.8 Stable Release installation to the Open Beta branch and download 2.5. More info on how to use the updater can be found here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030 So we can't convert OpenAlpha 2.2 to OpenBeta 2.5 ?

jef32 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 With 2.2 and wanting to keep the 2.2 version for now, 58 Go copied from my 2.2 and 15 Go to download. 17 % for now. I've read on the french forum that we must delete the file: options.lua but just in the "saved game\ DCS (for 2.5 ) I suppose. Not for the OA version or 1.5.8 version I think ?

QuiGon Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 So we can't convert OpenAlpha 2.2 to OpenBeta 2.5 ? We will have to wait for the OpenBeta installer tomorrow? I'm not sure if you can convert 2.2 OA to 2.5 OB. Have you tried to run the updater with DCS_Updater.exe update @openbeta? Or if that doesn't work, try DCS_Updater.exe update 2.5.0@openbeta and maybe that works. Please let us know!
