Blooze Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Sounds like an upgrade bug. c0ff, are you saying that if my mods didn't get removed with the 1.2.7 update that it is an update bug? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SyntaxError Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) c0ff, are you saying that if my mods didn't get removed with the 1.2.7 update that it is an update bug?Possibly but nothing to worry about. If you have updated from 1.2.6 to 1.2.7 just run the repair to restore original files. Start > All Programs > Eagle Dynamics > DCS World > Repair DCS World The updater just didn't run the hash checker and only updated the files needed, which some might say is a better way of doing it because it keeps your modded files. So again nothing serious.

I was however worried that c0ff's statement may have indicated that I got a bugged update that may be a problem concerning other upgrade elements.

SyntaxError Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) Why when I press 1.26 does it say update 1.269999? Copy the local source file into DCS World from DCS World Openbeta and then update. See below. It uses the Open Beta directory to update V1.2.6, making the download size way smaller. Just remember to edit the txt file and change the line to point to your open beta folder. http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1950151&postcount=177 Okay I'm going to go fly now. Hopefully I've helped a few people here.

javelina1 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I did not participate in the 1.2.7 beta testing :(. was conserving HDD space. I must admit, after flying a couple instant missions, somehow, the 1.2.7 production release just feels solid! thank you to ED for all the coding efforts! and a big thank you to all the beta testers.

ENO Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 A brief walk down my experience so far... First update on two computers failed to complete... no big deal- it happens and the server is busy. Go in and look at module manager. On one other computer I can't get a key for A-10A to load, but on this computer the key is there but one for CA is missing. I can't add a key... apparently there's a function to do so on a webpage somewhere. I can't just copy and paste a key in... I figure- okay... I'll just fire up a session on MP and it'll ask me for the key. I log in- and the INVALID SERIAL KEY or whatever it is comes up. Nothing telling me which one is invalid... nothing telling me anything. No option of rectifying anything. Just INVALID. Of course, I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that I have 2 logins- one for myself and one for the gf... and we both use the same computer on occasion. So I need two serial keys... except that when it loads one login instead of the other- it still captures the other serial and calls it invalid. Or something. Can someone point me to this mysterious online license key registration- this is a MAJOR PITA. "ENO" Type in anger and you will make the greatest post you will ever regret.

stokerel Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Strange issue, dunno if anyone else experiences this with 1.2.7 - none of the custom missions seem to work (I mean the ones downloaded from the user files on the main website). After skipping the briefing screen and clicking Fly the sim just stops on the loading screen (launcher.exe runs but never executes dcs.exe). All the default missions work. Any ideas? Upgrade to 1.2.7 was done via the update tool. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlidfan Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 New versions can break old missions. Try opening the mission the the ME and the saving it again. That may fix any minor issues.

jomar machado Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Do they have any idea when the auto updater will be available for us with the 1.2.6 version? :music_whistling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadCow Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I may have found a bug with 1.2.7. It's certainly not critical as I've already found a work around, but if someone else can try this to verify it's a bug, or maybe it's just my installation is messed up, here's what I did: Go into Options -> Controls -> Axis Commands -> Click on an axis -> Axis Tune If you click Cancel, pressing Ok on the following screen takes you to the main menu as expected. However, if you click "Ok" while in the axis tune section, whether you've made a change or not, pressing the next "Ok" button will leave you on that screen. You have to spam click the ok button until it accepts it and brings you to the main menu. I've found that until you spam click ok, your changes will not be saved.
