Jeans Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) So, when I get to installing FC3 I get the following message: Can't install FC# 1.2.2.7122 into newer DCS World 1.2.2.7204. Please, download FCS 1.2.2.7204 installer. I cannot find anything remotely like that. Please help. Edited November 12, 2012 by Jeans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team c0ff Posted November 12, 2012 ED Team Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) Sorry. We'll fix it, or provide a workaround ASAP. WORKAROUND: return your DCS World to a previous version. In the command line (or .bat file) in the game directory run bin\dcs_updater.exe update :1.2.2.7122 Edited November 12, 2012 by c0ff Dmitry S.

Jeans Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Before I do this... will this mess up the game or prevent future updates? With the latest patch the rest of the modules are running better than they ever have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you revert to 1.2.2.7122, you just install your FC3 and then - feel free to update to the latest version. Dmitry S.

gixxerthou04 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Frustrating. Okay... I have finally gotten the DCS World part of this mess reverted back to the previous version. Now I am trying to install the FC3 Beta installation and it asks me for an activation key in order to install. I thought perhaps it wants my Serial Number for my FC2 install. Unfortunately, that did not work. Do I have to make a $39 purchase of another serial number in order to try this beta out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't feel it was a wired question at all. I didn't realize it was a requirement to purchase a BETA version of any game. Which forum thread should I have been asking this question?

9 Crazies Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I have no idea what to do with this zip file or how to apply it. As much as I enjoy the games ED makes, the patching system is prehistoric, complicated, and disorganized. I have never done so much research in my life on how to get both A-10 C and FC3 properly working with DCS World. Every time DCS announces a new patch this is what comes to mind when it is released. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What (the hell) are you talking about? The patching system now works all alone and automatically at all... If you´re talking about the file provided by C0ff on the first page, so try this.

Tom73 Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Good day guys! Following issues, please advise: Ran Lock On vs 1 from CD. Tried to register as per default Ubi Soft registration schedule after installtion, was told I was not connected to the internet. I was..:) OK, ignored it and kept going with installing DCS world from DCS download section. Installed DCS world, got this error message: (German) "Could not start application because MSVCP100.dII was not found. New installtion of the application could solve the problem." Then I purchased, downloaded and tried to install Flaming Cliffs 3 Beta: Same issue, after assumingly installing some files, the installer told me the exact same thing. Please give me a heads up, I also downloaded the file mentioned here... http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/wiki/Troubleshooting:FC3:Installer So far no idea how to proceed.

Tom73 Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Ah, PS: During first download and also atm, as I try to re-download DCS world, I got the following message upon chosing an alternate download server after another failed for the final segment: First, form to put in password etc and then this message: 503: Login incorrect. Argh. So far this was really not easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobek Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Tom, when you installed world, did you let it update your c++ libraries? Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
