flyingscotsman Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Just going out to work, ran the 1.5.8 updater, it zipped past the update and ignored it. (in UK) Asked me to verify the mi-8 hip, then ran. So did updater clean, then updater repair, it ran both and says my 1.5.8 12834,414 is ok. It is,but it has not updated. Will be back this evening, no rush Thank you
flyingscotsman Posted January 31, 2018 Author Posted January 31, 2018 Will try the updater, or force updates. Had time to think about it on way to work
QuiGon Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Seems like you tried to update the 1.5.8 Stable Release branch which has not yet been updated to 2.5. To get 2.5 you need the Open Beta branch. Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
Drippy Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Sorry to hijack. Is there a easy way to revert from 1.5.8 stable to beta?. CMD prompt or something. I did the full install and now my 1.5 is 100gb but no 2.5 i am wondering if I patched the stable release by accident.

"1.5.8 Stable Release"? Where did you get this version from? I most recently kept updating 1.5.8 but I never got any choice to select a "stable version" of 1.5.8.

Yes, as I explained here: 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 Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
wernst Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 All versions here (OB installer currently not available): https://updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com/ Sorry, just to make sure I understand the terminology right. There isn't any difference between "1.5.8. open beta" and and "1.5.8 release", is it? "release" means the latest update of open beta, which is DCS world 1.5, right? And "1.5.8. final" is latest supported version of DCS world 1.5. Thanks for your patience.
