freelancer2011 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Hi, I'm no longer prompted to update DCS whenever I click on the desktop icon. I did have Stable version but then converted to Open Beta. When I try to update from the command line, I get told I have the latest version. My friends have got DCS on Steam. Is there something wrong or do DCS traffic split/or they do blue/green testing? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art-J Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 When clicking on desktop icon, you get the prompt only once per 24 hours, that's how it works. You can use the "update DCS World Open Beta" shortcut, however (from Start menu -> Programs -> Eagle Dynamics) as many times as you need. That's what I'd do to make sure I do it right (we don't know what you typed in when trying to update manually). i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.

freelancer2011 Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 Hi, thanks for the swift reply. I did do that (Start Menu > Progs>ED) but it's the same result. Purportedly says I'm on the 'up to date' version already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freelancer2011 Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 Figured it out. I was using SkateZilla's guide but noticed just now that I had to truncate the version number. So, I should have done: .\DCS_updater.exe update 2.5.6@openbeta I was populating the entire version number :poster_oops: But all good now, the download is under way. Thanks for again for your help, Art-J. Feel free to close this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
