cfrag Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 I was led to believe that the Marianas Map was included in the Update that dropped an hour ago today. Updated, but in my (Steam version) DCS ME there is no Marianas map to choose from. Now, I'm a Klutz with many things, including DCS. Can someone clue me in on what I'm doing wrong? Is this perhaps steam-related? Thanks, -ch

cfrag Posted June 30, 2021 Author Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) OK, I AM a Klutz. The download is separate (unlike Caucasus), and I'll have to wait until it comes through the steam pipes. My apologies for mouthing off too quickly. Less coffee, more thought for me! (thanks, @Northstar98!) -ch Edited June 30, 2021 by cfrag 1

Yep this is correct. Once the patch downloads on steam goto the DLC section on steam and download the Mariana's as a seperate free 'DLC' 2
cfrag Posted June 30, 2021 Author Posted June 30, 2021 Wow. The download that broke Steam. Download has slowed to 9.8 kB per second. You read that right: kilobytes. Not even Alyx managed that. Congrats to DCS - you have a veritable megahit on your hands! Now I'm off opening a bottle of wine and greet every bit personally as it crawls through my fiber

xoomigo Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 The posts here saved me some time looking for an answer... Still downloading the 3.4GB map. ETA fluctuating between half an hour and 2 hours. But that's fine - will patiently wait for it. Many thanks to ED for the advanced Christmas gift! 2
Beirut Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) I couldn't find the map anywhere in the DCS list. I had to type it in and then it appeared. And Steam in downloading at 7mb a second. I'll have it in 10 minutes. Steam is always very fast for me. Edited June 30, 2021 by Beirut Some of the planes, but all of the maps!
Shark 3-1 Posted June 30, 2021 Posted June 30, 2021 It took me only like 1 minute thats crazy it says it will take 2 Hours Modules I look forward too: BO-105, OH-58, AH-64, BS3, Eurofighter.

Dogzero1 Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Is the Marianas map only available on Steam and not here as a TERRAIN MODULE? [sIGPIC]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v230/dogzero1/uk-royal-air-force.gif[/sIGPIC]

It is also available for the non-steam installation. Just start the game and go to the module manager. It's not available on the ED store, as it is free content and hence can't be bought. Edited July 1, 2021 by QuiGon 1 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!

pohlinkzei Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 I am still having issues using the Marianas on my Steam DCS version. I have it in my bought DLC list, but it is still starting the game when I clock on Download Is it released for stable release (2.7.3) or do I need to switch to open-beta_something. On Standalone stable 2.7.3 it is working and I could have a look with the mission editor.

pohlinkzei Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Magically, the Marianas appeared. I disabled and enabled the DLC in my steam account and now I can use it. Weird, but works now. Edited July 17, 2021 by pohlinkzei 1
