imacken Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) What does the new post that says 'DCS 2.5 with new Caucasus map is available for public now!' mean? Do we now have a release version? Is it the same build is the most recent beta? EDIT: Just checked http://updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com/ and it would appear that the beta build from 2 weeks ago is now the official release version. Seems a little surprising to me, but....

A Hamburgler Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I was wondering the same thing. I thought we already had the updated Caucasus map but I guess not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fjacobsen Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) I simply don´t get this... When updating 2.5OB I only get the "Updater" updated, the version of 2.5 is still the same as before - so no changes or bugfixes ! When updating 1.5.8 " release version the "Updater" is updated and then I get the option to update 1.5.8 to 2.5. Well honestly 2.5 is still so bugged and bad performing that I don´t want to see my 1.5.8 version being wrecked by this update. SO BE CAREFULL!!! If You like me, don´t find 2.5 ready and stable for general use and still prefer 1.5.8 due to the much better performance and stability, then don´t click OK. I wonder why they are in such a hurry to kill 1,5,8 when 2.5OB really isn´t in a state that rectifies this switch. Only reason is, if they later today releases a new update to 2.5OB that realy solves alot of bugs, especially the memory related issues that has been hampering 2.x ever since it was available.

phantomknight321 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 My only concern/question I am hoping ED elaborates on is how much longer the module sale has now. I am so close to pulling the trigger on the a10c, and if the price goes back up that goes out of the window.

Falcon_S Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) Wanna have them both? Why? You don`t need it both... always you can switch between release and OB. But if you want you can have both.

Falcon_S Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Yes. Open CMD in DCS World/bin and use this command. That just will switch your OB to release. Quote Немој ништа силом, узми већи чекић!
