Stickshaker Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Can anyone tell me where I can find which version (both Open beta and Release) is the current one? I suspect that my updater is not working but I am not sure. It would be nice if there were an easy way to keep track of updates. Thanks and best regards, Stickshaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouse_99 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 updated updater is causing problems I updated my DCS (automatically) but first it updated the updater and now, even though I have internet speeds of 100 MB p/s, the updater downloads a 0.7 MB p/s. after two hours it tells you to try again later. This has happened 5 times already including trying to do a repair. What do I need to do to get an up date and download the latest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lito_cl Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I have the same issue and I think at least for me that it's because I live in Qatar and they block torrents. If I go and use a VPN it solves the issue and downloads the update.

krel Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I have been trying to install the game (not update, brand new install) for a couple days now. The first updater, the 24.4G one, downloads and updates. The second one, around 6.2G, just runs until it times out - I have let it go on torrent until it dies, generally says something like "8500 of 6217.8 MBytes" and the DL Size is around 3000 MBytes when it croaks. I've also tried it by cancelling and switching to the HTTPS download, that has not yet been successful either. I'm currently trying the HTTPS download again - currently it shows "650 of 6218.7 MBytes" above the bar, and "DL Size: 222.6 MBytes DL Rate: 1.0 MB/s" below. I am on gigabit cable (not fiber yet) and speedtest generally shows my download speed around 7-800. Any thoughts? Is there a download or different torrent I can use to get the updater files? I typically have no download issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krel Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Figured it out - the updater from this page, https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/stable/ doesn't work (for me.) http://updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com/ - on this page, downloading this newer version of the updater worked http://updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com/files/DCS_updater_64bit.zip Maybe this will help someone else.

Thanks Krel but did not help me. I am new to DCS and am attempting the installation of the Beta. While the Beta does install, I haven't seen it yet as it attempts to update first. The torrents download works for a small time (2-3 mins) and then freezes. Any attempt to switch to HTTP results in a complete freeze as reported elsewhere in the Forum. Requires reboot to clear. I am using the cfg file to bypass torrents to go to http. That http download speed will take over 12 hrs!! Torrents just does not seem to be working. Is there anything that can be done here? I have purchased the Huey and F-86 and haven't seen a DCS screen yet. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers Jock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
