How To Install New Patch ?


ErichVon

Recommended Posts

I built my own PC last year, all parts came from Newegg.com I'm more savvy with the hardware end than the software---how-to end of doing stuff.

 

I have patch 1.1.0.6 version installed. This is verified by me going to Mission Editor\Misc\Credits.

 

I downloaded in Mozilla Firefox both modules to my downloads store-house, from here:

 

http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/patches/dcs-wh_patch_1.1.0.7_en/

 

I downloaded wee hours NY time, Setup-1.bin and Setup.exe both from the Server HTTP 1 USA

 

It took about an hour to download using DSL.

 

How / what / where do I go from here to install the new patch into my current game? (I did the original install and the 1st patch myself but I do not remember how I did it. Yes, my older age is a negative factor plus medicines I take would put a horse to sleep!)

 

Patch instructions say it matters as to:

 

All 2 files should be downloaded and put into one folder before launching setup. Filenames are of importance.

 

 

Thanks for any help,

 

Erich

Just double click setup exe, install routine should do the rest.

Hi all,

 

Thanks for help.

 

Basic path I took setting up the #2 patch was from Firefox download store-room, to Desktop, to MY DOCUMENTS---I have a folder designated for this 2nd patch 1.1.0.7 . From that folder I clicked on setup.exe . Setup process told me it was looking for "setup(5)-1.bin" without quotation marks and had to figure that out . What I had downloded off the url supplied above (top of thread, 1st post) gave me "setup-1(3).bin" . So, I renamed it to what the setup program was looking for and good to go.

 

See basic algebra does come in handy---substitution!

 

I verified I have version 1.1.0.7 thru Mission Editor\Credits .

 

I still need to learn this game and making headway, FINALLY, with Kon's CH map controls setup in full sim mode. I fully intend to use Kon's .map .

 

My TrackIR is still in the box unopened.

 

Thanks to you'all for helping me out.

 

It is a long hard road...

 

Erich

 

 

Happened to me: Setup downloaded as Setup-002 (after a couple of downloads). Renamed Bin to [name as downloaded]-002, and everything went well.
