N19 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Hi all After finishing D/L and unpaking, dcs wont start because dcs.exe and all the files in the same directory exept for dcs_updater.exe where deleted. So I ran repair and when it was finish it took me back to version 2.5.0 All my modules where gone and only caucasus and Nevada where there but not the persian gulf map. If I force repair the same files well be deleted and dcs cannot run, and after repair I get version 2.5.0 Thanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted May 30, 2018 ED Team Share Posted May 30, 2018 Hi it sounds like the repair has taken you back to release version but to be sure attach your dcs.log and autoupdate_log.txt ensure you are running the open beta Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

SkateZilla Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 (edited) 00000.023 INFO : No config file. Did you delete the Auto_Update.cfg file in an attempt to download the Open Beta this morning? Doing so has reset DCS Back to a Vanilla state, the Updater see's no CFG File to Tell it your Install is supposed to be OpenBeta, so it deletes everything and downloads the latest release version. You Need to Change your install back to Open Beta and download the Latest Version. Run from CMD Prompt: DCS_Updater.exe update 2.5.2@openbeta DCS.LOG is in the /Saved Games/<DCS INSTALL>/Logs/ Edited May 30, 2018 by SkateZilla Windows 10 Pro, Ryzen 2700X @ 4.6Ghz, 32GB DDR4-3200 GSkill (F4-3200C16D-16GTZR x2), ASRock X470 Taichi Ultimate, XFX RX6800XT Merc 310 (RX-68XTALFD9) 3x ASUS VS248HP + Oculus HMD, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS + MFDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
