mosqui Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 demon72 You can make a link from driver C to D if you use the next one; you will save many space in driver C Transferring modules to another drive It often happens due to the large size of modules for DCS World, there is not enough free space on the drive to install new modules. If we have two or more drives installed on our system, we have the option to separately transfer large modules to another drive using symbolic links for folders in Windows. How to transfer a module to another drive using the example of the Caucasus map included in the free game DCS World: For example, the game is installed: D:\Games\DCS World (OpenBeta) and we additionally have drive E. 1. Create a folder on the E drive, for example DCS World Modules. 2. Transfer the Caucasus folder located: D:\Games\DCS World\Mods\terrains to drive E into the DCS World Modules folder. 3. We launch the command prompt (cmd) as administrator, for this we execute the command through the Start menu. Right-click - Start - Run: write cmd and click OK. 4. In the console window that appears, write the command: mklink /J "D:\Games\DCS World\Mods\terrains\Caucasus" "E:\DCS World Modules\Caucasus" 5. Check if a link to the Caucasus folder appears in the terrains folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habu_69 Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 You can also move the Saved Games folder and make a link from the C:User\Name\Saved Games folder to the new location. Saves lots of space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fussy way. yep might take abit longer but as long you save your key binds and saved games before you do though, least you know you got the latest and up to date and clean install again Edited October 29, 2021 by pete_auau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
