Little update 2.5.1 OB today

[sunski34]

Today, I had a very little new update, 0.1MB. What does it fix ?

 

version OB 2.5.1.16978

[imacken]

I'm wondering the same thing.

[HiJack]

Yes. Update but no info.

[Abburo]

Maybe updated the updater :D

[Snacko]

Mine just updated the updater. Probably getting ready so it can do the F18 update in the near future?

[NeilWillis]

It has changed some stuff in the Harrier it seems. No wing root vapours any more, so it isn't just an updater.

[JIMJAM]

Funny thing is that if the small update from ED did NOTHING. Say it was just a harmless empty file and ED had a changelog that said this small update increased performance, loading times,stutters and improved graphics many would rave about their better performance. Some would say theirs was worse and many would hate the new graphics changes. New problems and also miracle fixes would be popping up all over the forums.

 

BTW- My Harrier vapor issue is still there but it comes and goes according to a flip of the coin. Been doing this since the last big update.

Again read above.

The LERX vapour issue is still there for me. AFAIK nothing has changed in the Open Beta with the update.

[Flagrum]

This is what todays small patch did:

 

 

00022.566 INFO : To download: 0 bytes in 0 files
00022.635 STATUS: Removing obsolete files...
00022.809 INFO : Removed 0 files.
00023.975 INFO : Kept 45488 files.
00023.975 STATUS: Installing new files...
00023.976 INFO : Installed 0 files.

 

 

i.e. nothing that would affect us.

[schurem]

odd. I swear I saw it download 60megabytes of something.

[QuiGon]

Internal Build fixes, no changes to DCS files, main version remains the same.

This is what this update is about.

[BIGNEWY]

It was a small admin fix that was required, there was no core changes made.

 

you can check your autoupdate_log.txt it should tell you what if anything was changed.

No core changes were made, yet somehow after that little patch the MiG-21's damage model is functional again... I'm not complaining :-)

 

Regarding the damage modeling, we suspect the same issue is going on as in the Christen Eagle.

Guys, right after 2.5.1 Update 1 I started facing major performance hits. The yesterday Update 2 cured the aforementioned hits and now is like milk run. Exceptionally Smooth.

[wizav]

I downloaded F/A-18C accidentally through this update, but as soon as I tried to select it.. .it flew away..

[Dejjvid]

There was a bug in the engine that caused a few bugs in 3rd party modules. Seems to be fixed now.

Placebo..

[deltaleader]

Not sure about everyone else, but after this little update, I no longer have "Deferred Shading" option in my settings.

That was removed a couple of updates ago. it's noted in the relevant changelog.

version OB 2.5.1.16978

 

Actually it was the same build version as before if you omit the last number.

 

2.5.1.16978.361 <- May 5th

2.5.1.16978.363 <- May 13th

 

Looks like it just has been recompiled two times without any actual changes which is just what the log tells us.

Updates to the updater. Preparing for the F-18 launch I would guess.

[Swany]

So, it looks like they tuned the Deferred Shading. Colors a bit different. They also fixed SOMETHING. I couldn't play AT ALL without it freezing the game solid. I've now flown several free flight a campaign missions and, knock on wood, it hasn't locked up yet. So it's more than just an "admin" change ;)

 

Loving it!

[Phantom453]

Have they got a patch that removes all the days in May before release?

[Mr_sukebe]

We appear to have had another mini-update to 2.5.1. Anyone know what it did?
