Alpha, Beta...

[IJammer]

We seem to have had Alpha and or Beta versions of DCS it seems for ever... will there ever come a time when we will just run with the stable version?

 

 

 

I appreciate the reasons why... Apha's and Beta's being test beds for such a complex bit of kit... just asking. :music_whistling:

Huh? DCS "stable": https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/stable/

Alpha is no more, this branch is dead

 

beta will always be the public test branch

 

and we have the release branch

They run concurrently, or at least my understanding of it from a programming aspect is that it's this way, so when features are considered stable they find their way into the stable branch, those that wish to test new features (that may never make it into stable) can choose to do so, but as with any piece of software running two public branches like this; be it on your head if things break, it is to be expected.
