Tinkickef Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 Updater transferred 30GB across from 2.5 and I'm torrenting another 3GB so it will take awhile on my connection. I have to find out if it needs the further updates to bring it from 2.1 to 2.2. Hope it hasn't transferred across the degraded sea and lighting effects from 2.5. I will also have lots of setting up to do again...control binds ect... I will report back when it is up and running and let you know if the lighting ect has got corrupted. So moral of the tale, if you upgrade to 2.5, don't delete your 2.2 folder. I will keep 2.5 for daytime Caucasus missions and return full time when ED has had the chance to sort the problems.

Rudel_chw Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 ... I will also have lots of setting up to do again...control binds ect... The control binds are located on saved games/dcs/config/input ... no need to redo them, just copy the input folder to the saved games of the 2.2 instance For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
Tinkickef Posted February 12, 2018 Author Posted February 12, 2018 (edited) So the 2.2 update is complete. Just had a chance to fire up the Huey and have a quick flight around the Cherbourg Peninsula. I can confirm, none of the 2.5 lighting bugs appear to have been transferred across, gamma set at 1.7, 1800GMT time, sunny and cloudless skies. The sea has that great colour again and the coastline seabed is visible under several feet of water of wonderfully clear water; Unlike the 2.5 ink. So if you were a little too trusting like me and followed the prompt to delete 2.2, you can redownload it again. It took me 9GB of torrents to do it. That includes both NTTR and Normandy, plus all my aircraft. The rest was transferred across from 2.5. It also looks like all my control binds and settings were also restablished, side doors opened and closed, force trim ect all worked as before. Still have the system stutters in VR, that appeared in the last 2.2 update, but with windows, oculus, nvidia and DCS all updating themselves, windows and oculus without being given the choice; who knows which actually broke it. Of course the best course of action would be to be a little more cynical than I, and don't delete your 2.2 folder in the first place! I'm an idiot, I was taken in by all the pretty promo vids. What else can I say. Edited February 12, 2018 by Tinkickef System spec: i9 9900K, Gigabyte Aorus Z390 Ultra motherboard, 32Gb Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200 RAM, Corsair M.2 NVMe 1Tb Boot SSD.
