4H_Ccrashh Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) I just finished with the latest update to 2.7.4 Now when I start DCS I get an authorization failed error and I have no idea what the "China Asset Pack" is. Do I ignore it or is my game broken? I have a lousy DSL connection. It took me three days to get the latest update. To re download the whole smash will take me two weeks.

Flappie Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Hi. The China Asset Pack contains Chinese units (ships, ground vehicles, SAMs...). It was made by Deka Ironwork Simulations (JF-11, JF-17) and it is a part of the DCS World free sandbox. Since you don't have a great internet connection, simply run a "slow" DCS repair. If this doesn't fix the issue: Delete this folder: "\DCS World OpenBeta\CoreMods\aircraft\ChinaAssetPack" (you'll have to re-download about 5 GB of data). Then run another "slow" DCS repair. Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4H_Ccrashh Posted July 26, 2021 Author Share Posted July 26, 2021 Ran the Repair. It worked. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctguy1955 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I just got the very same thing, Only Ive been playing every day with no problems, until today. I will do the repair as well but I should not have to as I have 2 1TB SSD drives that have separate open betas on them and they both failed auth.

ASW Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 I had it happen today. Before that, after the last patch, I had problems. The game said that it was not possible to log in, I restarted the computer and everything worked. But two hours ago, everything broke down. I tried this method, but it didn't help. Since you don't have a great internet connection, simply run a "slow" DCS repair. If this doesn't fix the issue: Delete this folder: "\DCS World OpenBeta\CoreMods\aircraft\ChinaAssetPack" (you'll have to re-download about 5 GB of data). Then run another "slow" DCS repair. Since you don't have a great internet connection, simply run a "slow" DCS repair. What should I do? GreyCat_SPb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASW Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 But I read in the support service and found out that the time on my computer is 7 minutes behind. How this happened, I do not know... Now everything is working! GreyCat_SPb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiltonbomber Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) I have been having the same issue. The game is telling me that ALL my content that I've purchased is no longer current and once in game opens a window giving me the option to purchase all these modules. Some of them are modules I've already bought and paid for and others I haven't even looked at. My computer is showing the same time as my phone and it is all automatic determined by my internet connection so that shouldn't be a problem. I'm also having problems with a campaign I purchased via the Steam Store. It's telling me that it needs to be "activated". This is something new. Not sure what's going on here but there is something. If I choose to just close the "activation" windows everything works like normal, but without the campaign pack. I'm running Steam Edition and Open Beta and purchase all modules and DLC through the steam website.
