Don't have fiber anymore, while it does max out my connection.

 

 

Wish we could download in the background, and then patch it. Oh, well. Gonna love it anyways!

Because I need 5 hours to download and it is starting to get late -  is it possible to stop or pause the download, shut down PC und continue tomorrow, or do i have to start from beginning again?

That should work, as long as you don't clean out the "_download" folder.

you can stop and continue next time, DCS will check for what you have already downloaded.

Agree! Incredible update!

61 new bases! Guess we won't see a new map anytime soon.

61 new military bases have been added:
Syria 24
Israel 17
Jordan 5
Lebanon 15

Helicopter pads have been added to 93 military bases
Helicopter pads have been added to standard hospitals, stadiums, and oil fields

 

Impressive patch notes indeed! 

 

I can't spot those 17 new airfields in Israel... it looks like they only added helipads.

• Cargo. Added ability to carry cargo internally for Mi-8, Mi-24P and UH-1H. WIP (known issue cargo may clip into gunner model)

I assume this allows us to use the dynamic cargo system on those helicopters, same as the CH-47?

If so, I don't seem to be able to use it, I have set the base to Dynamic Cargo and have opened all the doors on UH-1, Mi-8 and Mi-24 but am unable to see the cargo menus on the rearm screen. Tried both engines running and shut down.

Am I missing anything?

Hi. I am in the Uk and have been trying to sort out why with an external possibility of 28 mg ps available  I only get 9.8 mb Max and have done so since I joined this great community. 

DCShave been helpful and given me a test string to try but I understand the feed comes from Switzerland and passes a few severs along the way but it never varies 9.6 mb max and this Update today is 2 hours plus. Does anyone else have this issue here in UK or in Europe ?

Change your provider. Get fibre installed.

@BIGNEWY

Not really a bug, but the Steam properties still has the Betas entry.

 

 

Also outdated (as of today) launch options,
