silent one Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Ive been away a year . I thought I had 2 installs one being the beta. Now I seem to have one install and it says its beta on the install folder. I searched the forums and it seems to be saying the beta merged and now. Im really confused. Do I have to make a fresh install to get the stable version? Game says its version 2.5427430 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XtraChrisP Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 So yes, if you have both versions installed they are currently the same version, but are independent of each other, insofar as they are two separate installs/programs on your computer. Eventually the OB will be updated again and they will be different versions then. Not sure what's on your computer. Poke around in file explorer and see if you have two DCS folders watch in the tens of GBs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game says its version 2.5427430 Where in your hard rive is DCS installed? your drive letter:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics once you open this folder will tell you if it is OB or stable. Additionally this link show you the installer versions https://updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com/ This shows you how to use the updater https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=114030 To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

silent one Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 Is there a way to turn my beta into a stable so it continues to update as stable and not as beta? I see my options are to update beta only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cake Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Go to Eagle Dynamics in your windows menu and see what you have options to play and update. If it only lists the beta, then you probably only have the beta installed. 6700K@4.6 48Gb - 1080Ti Hybrid - Warthog - RIFT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This free utility makes that and other DCS maintenance very easy . https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=160053 9700k @ stock , Aorus Pro Z390 wifi , 32gb 3200 mhz CL16 , 1tb EVO 970 , MSI RX 6800XT Gaming X TRIO , Seasonic Prime 850w Gold , Coolermaster H500m , Noctua NH-D15S , CH Pro throttle and T50CM2/WarBrD base on Foxxmounts , CH pedals , Reverb G2v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
