Gault05 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Need some help on how to deal with ftp mirrors since I honestly have no clue whatsoever. I ask this because the first time I ran into this, I completely gave up on downloading for a while then switched to http.:helpsmilie::helpsmilie: What is ftp and its purpose in dcs downloading? What to use when using ftp mirrors for downloading? Where to go when ftp downloading is done? How or where do I run said download w/ftp mirror? What to do when ftp isn't running or redirects you to another window or such? Thank you.

Kayos Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 What are you trying to download that uses FTP? I tries to use Torrents and then switches to http. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gault05 Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 (edited) I'm trying to download FC3 due to most of the http servers stopping short around 740 MB, and the last time I did an ftp download was an absolute hassle. Edit: That and corrupt source files w/unfinished download. I do have the torrent for fc3, but I'm unsure at what that does to help the problem.

Kayos Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 You are not doing it through DCS World? You can download DCS World and install. Start it and log in, go to Module Manager and download FC3 from there. There are 3 versions of DCS World atm though. The regular "live" on. One in Beta (1.5) & one in Alpha (2.0 with nevada map) You must have bought the Nevada map for 2.0 though. Or have bought A-10C during beta. http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gault05 Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 (edited) Not likely. I currently have 1.2, that's about it. The reason I'm downloading fc3 is to buy it later on, if possible. I don't have the Nevada map either, nor the C-Hog. Edit: It only says "Buy" on the Module Manager. I checked.
