ED Team Wags Posted December 16, 2017 ED Team Share Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) Dear all, DCS World 2.5 News Update Work is going well with the updated Caucasus map and the summer map is ready to go! However, there is still work to do on the Spring, Autumn, and Winter maps. Much of this revolves around integration of the new SpeedTree tech. This is a rather time consuming process and is not just a case of just dropping in new tech. Additionally, a lot of work continues on updating the hundreds of missions and campaigns that need to be adjusted for the map changes. This primarily entails moving units and their routes out of the many new forested areas on the map. We want this move to DCS World 2.5 to be as bug-free as possible. Finally, we have the holiday season fast approaching, and we need to give our staff time with their loved ones. Given this, we will be releasing DCS World 2.5 by late-January 2018. This is not an estimate, this is a promise. DCS World 2.5 will be released as a new download (NOT an update to an existing version). In other words, DCS World 2.5 will replace DCS World 1.5 Stable. The current 1.5.8 Open Beta will be updated to be DCS World 2.5 Open Beta. As such DCS 2.5 Stable and DCS 2.5 Open Beta will be available at the same time. DCS 2.1 Open Alpha will be removed, and DCS World 1.5 will remain but be unsupported. Modules under DCS World 2.x will not need to be re-downloaded or activated. Just do not uninstall DCS World 2.2 Open Alpha prior to installing DCS World 2.5 Stable, as 2.5 will copy the modules over from 2.2. Any files in your Users/Saved Games folder will not be affected. Pilots statistics from DCS World 2.x will be carried over to DCS World 2.5. Movement of DCS World 2.5 would then soon follow to Steam.

Raven68 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Thanks for the insight Matt. Although it's slightly disappointing the display of updating the community on the happenings carries tremendous weight. Thanks to you and the staff and have a Merry Christmas.

sc_neo Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Late January, right around my birthday, equally fitting as having it for Christmas! Anyway, health and well being of employees must always take precedent over all other considerations, whether its software dev. or any other industry. Crunchtime should not even be a word unless its a matter of life and death, wich software development seldom is. But damn it, lost my bet with my brother and now i need to cook nepali chicken for him...and that ''release in the coming weeks'' was putting me on the winning street! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
