From DCS 1.5.8.12823.414 to 2.5 Open Beta


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hello all - relative DCS noob here and looking into moving from 1.5.8 release to 2.5 open beta. I've done some research and have a few questions - hoping one of you might be able to enlighten a new guy:

 

a) Is this a wise move or best to wait until 2.5 stable release comes out?

 

b) If a wise move what is the best way to do so:

 

1) via the instructions on this page:

2) via the GUI updater:

3) via downloading the free installer for 2.5

c) would people recommend keeping the 1.5.8 release but also installing 2.5 open beta in another location.

 

Thanks in advance.

There will not be a 2.5 Alpha, only Open Beta and Stable Release. Stable will come in a week or two.

 

The Open Beta installer is supposed to be available some time later today, I would just wait and grab that if you want to run the Beta branch.

a) Totally up to you. There is nothing really wrong with either option.

b) If you want to keep the Stable Release I would recommend to 3) wait till the free installer is available, otherwise I would recommend to 1) update as instructed

c) No, 1.5.8 serves no purpose anymore

DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
