HC_Official Posted December 22, 2024 Posted December 22, 2024 if it is the space you want back , then go inside the DCS.ophenalpha / Tracks folder and delete any files or folders therein No more pre-orders Click here for tutorials for using Virpil Hardware and Software Click here for Virpil Flight equipment dimensions and pictures. .

Correct? wherever the latest DCS.LOG exists is the folder you want to keep. it does not matter what the folder name is honestly. either of those folders could have a bunch of stuff you may want to keep. to be safe, post the latest DCS.LOG on your system here and i can tell from it what saved games folder you are using.

giullep Posted December 23, 2024 Author Posted December 23, 2024 (edited) I now this..thx. But the problem is that i buyed dcrealistic for dcs. It holds on connecting because the developer say that im using an alpha version of dcs..dcrealistic run only (say he) with an official version!! But i think that i have last version that is only the stable..i dont know…this is my problem.. Edited December 23, 2024 by giullep
