yes, but only for the standalone version of DCS, the following does not apply to the Steam version.

 

to change, open a windows command prompt, change to the dcs/bin/ folder, and execute this command:

 

dcs_updater update @release

You can also use Skatezilla’s DCS Updater Utility GUI. 


true, but installing and learning to use a new utility takes probably a lot more time than simply typing a command on a windows prompt.

Can one go back and forth between the versions?  Say like mp on beta and sp on stable?  What would be the steps taken to do that?

yes, tough the process takes a fair amount of time as the files that differ between both versions need to be downloaded each time.

not the same, for that you would need to have both versions installed simultaneously, needing double the disk space.

the 2nd post of the thread has info on how to convert beta onto stable and viceversa.
