derbynew Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Hi, How can I run DCS World 1.5 and 2.5. The problem I have is many things in the KA-50 is broken in DCS 2.5. So I would like to gp back to 1.5. Right now, I have downloaded 1.5 Updater. How can I configure it not to upgrade to 2.5? It really is frustrating not being able to use the KA-50 in DCS 2.5 with all its features. E.g. I used to use Data Link Ingress to drop bombs, but Data Link is broken, the bugs are so numerous for KA-50 that I am happy to go back to DCS World 1.5. Any help is appreciated to have the KA-50 working like it used to :smilewink: Romiko Derbynew --------------------------------------------------------------- Intel® Core i5-9600K CPU @ 4.8GHz Corsair Vengeance XMP 32GB - CMW32GX4M4C3000C15 MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 Gamzing Z 8GB MSI Z390 Gaming Edge AC Motherboard NZXT H500 Case EVGA 650W P2 Power Supply NH U12S CPU Cooler - 2 fans 2 Inlet fans - Noctua 2 outlet fans - Noctua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if there is an option to disable the automatic checking for updates, but you can always just click on deny/cancel if it tells you there is a new update and launch without updating. Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

This is what I did till I upgraded mi rig. Just click "later" when the updater tells you to upgrade to 2.5.2 version. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BitMaster Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 You should have a look at SkateZilla's DCS tool !!! It's linked somewhere, google find's it right away. I am pretty sure that tool only does Updates when you tell it to, not by launching DCS. *correct me if I am wrong O_o Gigabyte Aorus X570S Master - Ryzen 5900X - Gskill 64GB 3200/CL14@3600/CL14 - Asus 1080ti EK-waterblock - 4x Samsung 980Pro 1TB - 1x Samsung 870 Evo 1TB - 1x SanDisc 120GB SSD - Heatkiller IV - MoRa3-360LT@9x120mm Noctua F12 - Corsair AXi-1200 - TiR5-Pro - Warthog Hotas - Saitek Combat Pedals - Asus PG278Q 27" QHD Gsync 144Hz - Corsair K70 RGB Pro - Win11 Pro/Linux - Phanteks Evolv-X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbynew Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 What are the problems with the KA50 ???The datalink does not save and send targets to wingmen. I use this a lot, the cockpit is really hard to see when looking at instruments, gamma is really bad on the targeting IT-24 screen. Hard to see if buttons are on or off. In 1.5 these issues are not present and the helicopter functions really well. One issue I see in 1.5 is the AI for wingmen is not good when asked to engage targets with Bombs.
