Accidentally deleted Caucuses Map - how recover?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

It's all in the title, noob mistake.

 

I was trying to fix a kneeboard builder issue and deleted the entire terrain folder by accident - not in recycle bin and the uninstaller does not show a 'fix' mode - any way to recover or download the terrain files without uninstalling and reinstalling the whole thing?

 

Thanks

Try the repair option in your start menu section for DCS?

Currently downloading NTTR 2.5 terrain, will try that after, thanks!

So I looked for a repair option and did not see it. I was looking on the right side of the main menu with Mission, Instant Action, etc., and did not see any repair option there, also looked at Settings - is there a hidden menu? I am a noob to DCS, only had it for a week.

 

Thanks

He's referring to your Windows Program list, not the sim itself. Tucked in the DCS folder is a shortcut for Repair.

Happy to report SkateZilla's updater/repair technique worked, Caucasus map and missions restored, although the download was painfully slow, no doubt due to everyone downloading 2.5.

 

Thanks all!
