GVO Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 (edited) This might be a very stupid question, but what do I need to do, to update to beta 2.5? I have openBeta installed, tried running that but no update. Then I tried running the DCS_Updater.exe update and still no joy :( And here http://updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com/ the 2.5 installer is not working anymore EDIT: Nevermind, I downloaded the latest updater.exe and that seemed to do the trick :) Edited January 30, 2018 by GVO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reflected Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Wow, performance over Caucasus 2.5 is even better than in 1.5! Fantastic update, ED! So it's not the deferred shading and the new lighting system, but the Normandy map that messes with the performance.

Hoffster Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Awsome! just tried different settings static on ground, big difference coming from 1.58ob. So with all these new graphics settings, are Deffered shading and cockpit shadow thing a must to leave on to make it look good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw...managed to use my 4g to download the thing (13gb updating my OB) but my surprise is...after installing the 2.5 correctly, I had no prompt to uninstall my 2.2 and once inside the 2.5 I have the red label into the modules manager asking me to install Normandy, Nevada, Assets pack, and some modules?¿?¿?¿?:huh:...could it be due to the fact that I moved my 2.2 install to a different location and now it didn't recognized my 2.2??? how can I make 2.5 to "see" that I have a 2.2 with Nevada, Normandy, etc?... thanks!!:thumbup: Take a look at my MODS here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imacken Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 OK, so 2.5 update occurred and installed Caucusus OK. Didn't ask about copying or deleting OA 2.2 files. Now when I try to install ALL the 2.2 stuff from module manager it is showing a 40Gb download! The files are already there. How do I point 2.5 to that fact?
