Hi Guys, Thanks for taking the time to reply. I firstly followed GurbyY's suggestion, and this solved the problem. So thanks a lot for that. Concerning Rudel's reply, I only found 2 LOGs: autoupdate_log, generated after my repair trial autoupdate_log_old, which was created right after the update I attach them here. Thanks again for your precious help. I would hae never be able to find the solution without you. Ciao! Andrea autoupdate_log.txt autoupdate_log_old.txt

Dear All, After a hiatus of a few weeks, I've been invited to update my DCS (stable version) to version nr 2.7.11.22211. After a download of about 32 GB of stuff, the sim crashes on startup. Here's what happens: 1) I normally launch DCS 2) I get the launch screen: 3) I get the LOGGING IN message 4) The GETTING AUTHORIZATION DATA window appears: and after that the whole launch process stops with no futrther message and/or notice. I tried a REPAIR but couldnt solve the problem. Any hint, please? Thanks in advance for your kind and preciousvhelp. Regards, Andrea

Dear all, thanks for your precious feedback. Best regards

Hi Flappie, you're right, I have no SCROLL LOCK key. This thing drives me crazy. I know I could run my Nvidia GE FOrces Experience in background and have an FPS counter, but why should I have another software running when DCS has a built-in counter? Maybe the guys at ED can help..... I wait for their answer and/or any other hint. Thanks again.

Hallo everybody, I have no PAUSE key on mykeyboard. Hence, I can't turn the FPS counter on via the default combo LCTRL-PAUSE. I tried to assign a new combo but nothing happens. No counter shown on my screen, whatever I choose. Any hint? Thanks in advance for your answer. Regards

Hi Eduardo, Thanks. Actually, I just realized that my "OLD" PC had a USB 3.0 port and the COUGAR was plugged into it. So it's definitely not a USB 3.0-related issue. Thanks for the picture but, sorry, I'm not that much into techniques to understand what this is all about. I dp't even know how you reached that page..... So, I uninstalled the HOTAS software+drivers, and reinstalled all following your post on DCS forum. Now the HOTAS COUGAR Control Panel icon on my desktop has a "Windows" sign on it....... Any hint? Thanks, Andrea

Yes, I did. And also tried to use the other USB ports. The problem is still there....

Hello everybody, this might have been discussed in the past but I couldn't find any post. So, sorry if it's the case. I own a COUGAR which perfectly worked on my 2018 PC. I now moved to a new Gaming PC which is only equipped with USB 3.0 ports. Once the software and drivers installed (thanks Rudel for the instructions), I run the Hotas Control Panel and I get the following message: "Device detection error. E2: ensure that the device is connected and worked properly". I now have the doubt that the COUGAR could be not compatible with 3.0. Is that the case? And, if it's the case, would you have any hint to use the COUGAR on 3.0 USB ports? Thanks in advance for your precious hints. Best regards.

Signori, Vi ringrazio molto per il tempo che avete dedicato alle mie domande. Seguirò i vostri consigli e qualora dovessi avere un problema mi permeterò di scrivervi ancora. Grazie! Ciao!

Ciao Viper79, grazie per la tua risposta. Ho letto il post che mi hai linkato. Loro parlano di disattivare i moduli prima di copiare il tutto. E' quello che hai fatto anche tu? Ciao!

Bonjour à tous, je viens d'acheter un PC gaming et je voudrais transférer du vieux pc au nouveau l'ensemble de DCS World et des modules que j'ai acheté sans devoir tout télécharger à nouveau. Je crains que le fait de copier en bloc le dossier DCS et ses sous-dossiers d'un PC à l'autre par le biais d'un disque dur extérieur puisse donner des erreurs, surtout en èhase de mises à jour. Auriez-vous SVP une procédure à me conseiller pour que la transition se fasse sans problèmes? Je vous remercie par avance de votre aide. Bons vols virtuels. Andrea

Ciao a tutti, sono passato ad un PC gaming e vorrei trasferire dal vecchio PC il mio DCS World ed i vari moduli che ho acquistato senza dover passare ore a scaricare tutto. Credo che il semplice copia e incolla di tutta la cartella e sottocartelle possa non funzionare, soprattutto in fase di UPDATE. Avete un suggerimento da darmi PF su una procedura che limiti lo spreco di tempo? Vi ringrazio in anticipo. Ciao! Andrea

Hi, stand alone.

Thanks for your reply. Sorry, but I'm not that much into programming technique. I guess my F18 module updates automatically when I start DCS (if updates are available). How can I have access to the open Beta version? Thanks. Regards, Andrea

Dear all, It has certainly already been discussed on these forums but I couldn't find trace of it, so if it's the case I apologize for this message. I own the F-18 module and I see plenty of videos on the Air-to-ground radar. Also, I find plenty of discussions on this and other forums. However, this radar mode is not present in my F-18. Are the videos from Beta testers or am I unable to correctly update to a non-beta version that implements this awesome new feature? Should this radar mode be still unavailable to the public, any idea on when it will be released? Thanks for your reply Regards, Andrea
