FC2 is HERE!!!

[Coolhnd1]

I logged on this morning as I do nearly every Saturday morning and as usual I just ignored the banner at the top of the forums. I read a few threads and then thought I'd check, just for the heck of it, the DCS site to see if there was any news on FC2. I clicked my way to the FC2 site and saw the notice about it's release and thought, probably just the russian version released. But No! the english version was ready for download too! :pilotfly:

 

I bought my copy and I'll be downloading shortly. Unfortunately it's about a 2G download so it may be awhile before it's ready. That should give me a while to hunt down where I have my Lockon disk so I can install it while I wait. I guess I'll need to start reading the manual to see what needs to happen to get this integrated with BS (do we need to wait for a BS update?) but I know what I'll be spending my time doing this today.

 

Now I'll have real motivation to get BS installed on my new computer too The new computer is a monster, includes i7 CPU and my first SSD.

We need to wait a little while longer for a DCS compability patch. And it is wonderful news. Check out the already available mods for FC2.0 (the new F-15C model by Gys, Valery and Scart). Hopefully more mods will be available by the end of the weekend.

Yeah, did that for me too. When I clicked on HTTP download it just took me to the main FC2 site. Eventually I logged in again using the login on the left hand side of the screen (I thought I had already logged in) and then it finally let me download via HTTP (I'm about half way home already so it doesn't look like the site has gotten saturated yet).

Awesome news! I for one am chuffed for all the LO pilots.

 

Now.....................for the BS patch! How long can we expect to wait until it is released ED?

*sigh* got it all downloaded, found and installed my LOMAC disk, but it turns out the two bin file's hashes don't match so it fails to install. Here I go again hoping the internet gods are kind to me this time..

Did you put them in their own folder (F.C 2.0) along with the .exe off the desktop? I put them in their own FC 2 folder and just ran the .exe and the rest was gravy.

No, but if the MD5 codes off the downloaded file don't match what's posted on the download page you know you have a corrupted file. Just finished redownloading and the hashes match now. I just finished (apparently) succesfully installing so it looks like I'm good to go!
