So if an update is released 5 minutes after someone starts the sim, then for the rest of that day the sim will not check for an update, and the user will not know about it, no matter how often they restart.

 

If you think about it, once per day is very generous. Most vendors spread updates over a week or more.

Most likely we'll increase the spread as well.

Is it possible that when there is an update that the notes for that patch are posted in the little news window inside the sim on the main screen?

Is it or will it ever be possible to disable the auto updater? Much prefer manually updating when it suits me via the start menu.

 

I suppose i could do it via my firewall.

Anyone know what the 90mb update is for? They fix the performance issue already? Can't see it ...not home yet...

After Update, no modules runs anymore. All games crashed and start the launcher again :( hmpf!

 

dcs.log + *.crash files please.

 

 

EDIT: we tested the update before publishing, if you ask :)

The master server issue has been around for ages, has nothing to do with 1.2.0.

 

about that missing .dll, you get that when you don't run/install as admin.

Just change the desktop icon to not point to the updater.

Dear ED,

 

I never let programs automatically update anything on my computer - I let them notify me that an update is available but I manually have to choose when to install it. Gives me a chance to be pro-active with other settings, tweaks and avoid version conflicts. Please provide us with this option!!!

 

Signed,

A fan

 

 

P.S. Wouldn't want to open the game only to find a new version already installed without me saying "OK" (and/or not being able to connect to MP with because other people's versions didn't update) and then having broken mods to boot, too... Could happen, right?

Cool.. i had already done this accidentally. They were already deleted. No shortcuts live on my desktop :)

 

Good to know.. thanks.

A gui option will be provided.

For now, edit C:\Users\<you>\Saved Games\DCS\Config\autoupdate.settings:

Change the value of "update_period" from "1" to "0".

Please, touch only this one digit, unless your are proficient in JSON.

I like this. Looks like we will be getting more frequent updates.

I dont think forcing the program to update is the best thing to do.

Absolutely no positive change after this update! Now is also the loading time extended enormously despite Vertex3 SSD. After the start, it's a long time at 4fps (GTX680 4GB, i7@4,8Ghz)??? Damn what the hell?

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy and I've had both.

In my start menu since I instaled v1.2.1 my "eagle dynamics" folder is empty, no "update DCS" or something else... :huh:

 

Only way I find to auto-update is to delete "autoupdate.settings" file.

You can force an update this way too.

But it's not something I'd recommend.
