bart Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 As far as I'm aware if you open your DCS stable version and go to the module manager it should ask you if you want to install the PG map. If you select yes the installer will search your PC for any other installs you have ie the Beta and copy it over from there. That's how it's happened to me in the past anyway.

schroedi Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 You have to add "PERSIANGULF_terrain", in the autoupdate.cfg in your DCS folder. exactly how i wrote it above with " and , somewhere between the other modules. Maybe it even doesn't work after doing that, because of different DCS versions (2.5.5 stable vs 2.5.6 open beta). Then do "repair DCS" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted April 8, 2020 ED Team Share Posted April 8, 2020 just use your module manager to install the terrain, the updater will look for other versions of DCS and use them.

ED Team c0ff Posted April 8, 2020 ED Team Share Posted April 8, 2020 just use your module manager to install the terrain, the updater will look for other versions of DCS and use them. Given their Path's are properly set up in the registry (which is done once by the installer). Dmitry S.

ED Team c0ff Posted April 9, 2020 ED Team Share Posted April 9, 2020 Why? You have to add ... in the autoupdate.cfg in your DCS folder. ... Then do "repair DCS" when this: DCS_updater.exe install PERSIANGULF_terrain is a much safer bet. Dmitry S.
