Rotorhead11 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) Just wondering. This, the 14.6Gb in my case, is probably only 2.0-2.1 update, including NTTR and modules. After that, once in game, I guess it'll ask if I want to download Normandy, and its another, 10Gb? on top? Good point, logic says yes, but lets see. A good job its Friday :music_whistling: Just read the press release and updating it seems installs the map. "To install the new map, please update your DCS World 2 Open Alpha, or download from DCS site." Edited May 26, 2017 by Rotorhead11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solty Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I have just installed the new patch and launched the game but NO Normandy. Only available terrain module in the module manager is Nevada!:huh: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]In 21st century there is only war and ponies. My experience: Jane's attack squadron, IL2 for couple of years, War Thunder and DCS.

NeilWillis Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 "To install the new map, please update your DCS World 2 Open Alpha, or download from DCS site." That's not what it is saying, it means that before you can download the map, you will need to update to 2.1. Modules are always a separate entity, so there will be an additional download once the update completes. You will have to access that via the module manager within the game.

Jackdaws Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) im confused... so how do i actually install normandy map? I have dcs 2.0 and pre purchased normandy. Apparently you can update 2.0 (but thats not working) or am i right in thinking you can download a fresh version of 2.0 using the installer via the website and once done normandy should be there? EDIT Tis working now... i just used the updater icon in start menu, eagle dynamics... took a few goes, but finally it has bitten!.. only getting 1mg per second.. 5 mins in 22 peers... so yes its slow!

dhevans79 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 looks like something funny.. it tells me that 2.0.5.3889.199 is up to date, but no terrain or purchased module for normandy available. :doh: will keep trying, but dcs keeps telling me no internet connection or nothing new...

Rotorhead11 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I'm assuming thats how it works Jack. Assets pack is supposed to work in 1.5, but it is not yet available that I can see. Maybe the update and later today the servers will have Normandy and the Assets pack. Comments seem to point at a time around 10am Pacific time, maybe in an hour. Patience is a virtue today I guess.:thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotorhead11 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Thanks for that mrsteel, That also led me to JGSME, still waiting for the update to finish, but I think these tools with help immensely expand the experience. I don't get to play often enough to mess around with mods, but this makes it pretty simple. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotorhead11 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Has anyone got it working yet. First attempt was a crash. Just updating drivers and restarting. 2.1 has a new look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFC Tako Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) I couldn't get it running, got some error messages about msvcp140.dll missing. Googled and found out I had to install a Microsoft redistributable. Installed that and tried again - the DCS process fired up but then died down again. Ran the DXSETUP.exe and it installed some files - tried again...no luck :( WILL EXPLORE FURTHER! ----------------------------UPDATE----------------------- Went for running DCS_updater.exe as admin - didn't make any difference. Tried running it with Microsoft compatible settings - got told that DCS_updater.exe was incompatible. NOTE: You might wanna DISREGARD this, I don't take MS troubleshooting too seriously. ---------------------END OF UPDATE--------------------- Edited May 26, 2017 by SFC Tako My Semi-Pro Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
