DCS World not updating


Recommended Posts

In theory, the updater can look into registry to restore the list of modules, and/or try to guess it from the remains of files which are still there. But I feel we are stretching it too far.

 

 

 

Copy, wasnt sure how far we could cheat it, thanks for responding though :)

Well now this is interesting, I have the new download going on my work PC as it has a fast internet connection. Browsing the DCSW files on my gaming PC I notice that the autoupdate cfg, autoupdate log and autoupdate dat are back in place. I clicked on the DCSW desktop icon, the updater kicked in and brought me up to the latest version. The DCSW main interface still says the old version though ! Here is the log'

Can you see any issues in this log Coff ?

 

Maybe ED can fix this issue of the updated version not showing up correctly in the main interface in the next update ?

EN; ...) <- here should be the list of installed modules, starting with WORLD. It is empty, that's why it does not update.

It looks like the last, but not the least setup stages failed to execute.

If you can find latest DCS-related "Setup Log #xxx.txt" in your Temp folder, please post it, we'll try to figure out the cause.

 

Meanwhile, you may try to repair your install manually. You should run admin command line in the game install dir and do a couple of commands, in fact, replicating those steps of the setup.exe:

bin\DCS_updater.exe init EN
bin\DCS_updater.exe install WORLD

If you installed any additional modules, you'll have to "install" those as well.

The only thing in the TEMP folder SETUP LOG Txt relates to the installation of the Razbam Harrier I did last year ! Can you clarify which TEMP folder and where ?

 

Not sure what you mean by " run admin command line in the game install dir" If you could kindly explain that a bit more clearly, I will give it a shot.

 

I have aircraft 4 modules installed.

 

Keep in mind that I am new to all this.

 

Thanks for your patience.
