pimp Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 You have to update your open beta install first. i9 9900k @5.1GHz NZXT Kraken |Asus ROG Strix Z390 E-Gaming | Samsung NVMe m.2 970 Evo 1TB | LPX 64GB DDR4 3200MHz EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra | Reverb G1 | HOTAS Warthog | Saitek Flight Pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donkeyrider Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 You need to run the DCS Open Beta Updater first. After that you will be able to download the F-18 module. Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once DCS started again, the module downloaded just fine. So I suggest try running the dcs_updater app to make sure you are on the correct release (2.5.2.x), and if that doesn't work try closing DCS, then launching from DCs.exe as opposed to auto launching from dcs_updater. One of the two should result in a further update and restart of DCs, at which point you will be able to install the hornet.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted May 31, 2018 ED Team Share Posted May 31, 2018 Current openbeta is 2.5.2.17978.385 make sure you have the same before downloading the hornet, which can be done via the module manager once you are upto date Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

huggy98 Posted May 31, 2018 Author Share Posted May 31, 2018 Thanks for your help m8. but this is ridiculous. I updated yesterday, it took me 10 hours, now I have to update again before I can fly the hornet? why didn't they have the upto date version yesterday? I swear I will never buy another module.
