CTB Posted March 31 Posted March 31 I've recently downloaded DCS version 2.5.6 and will look to expand my horizons with some modules. Saw FC3 and FC2024 and their wide range of aircraft and it seems like good value to try before going on to dedicated modules. But it looks like you cannot buy FC3 anymore and FC2024 needs a later version of DCS to run? Is it possible to get FC3, it doesn't appear to have any link to buy just takes you to its page? Or can get a version of FC2024 to work with DCS 2.5.6? Alternatively I think I can buy a couple of FC3 modules, which work with DCS 2.5.6.

Any reason you want to play that old version? Maybe if you purchase FC2024 the FC3 license will work, but you need to contact support for that. Is the 2.5.6 still available for download? Was not aware of that.Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk 1

I emailed DCS a few weeks ago for link to DCS 2.5.6, they have this available for compatibility with older OS's that doesn't run the latest version and older hardware that struggles with the latest version as its a lot less demanding. I'm getting steady 90-100 fps on 2017 hardware, sometimes up to 120fps. Anyways so I wondered if other older versions of software might be available. Edited April 1 by CTB 1

OK, so if they keep 2.5.6 operable you can buy and download any FC3 aircraft as standalone module but NOT F-5E FC, MiG-15bis FC or F-86F FC, because they were released with DCS 2.9.6. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/modules/filter/price-world-to-20/type-is-jet_engine_plane/apply/ You can use trial for testing before buying. 2 Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX4070S Quest 3 T16000M VPC CDT-VMAX TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria
