whitehot Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I still can't update to 1.52, the launcher behaves like there's nothing new to download. Seems that most folks has managed to get 1.52, so I'm wondering if there could be some glitch on my side that prevents the updater to do its job [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Intel i7 6700K @ 4.2, MSI M5 Z170A Gaming, NZXT X61 Kraken liquid cooler, PNY Nvidia GTX 1080 Founders Edition, 16GB Corsair Vengeance 3000 Mhz C15, samsung 840 evo SSD, CoolerMaster 1000W Gold rated PSU, NZXT Noctis 450 cabinet, Samsung S240SW 24' 1920x1200 LED panel, X-52 Pro Flight stick.

Dusty Rhodes Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 It only automatically checks for updates once a day or so. There should be a shortcut in your start menu called "Update DCS World OpenBeta" which will force an update check. Did the trick. Thanks a bunch! Been two long years! Now for my worst part of simming..........creating a stick file and muscle memory it! Will the stick file for 1.5 transfer over to 2.0?

joey45 Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 There's a trick with a command line but I don't know what it is. Even the 1.5.0 isn't updating. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted December 12, 2015 ED Team Share Posted December 12, 2015 What I done was delete the 'autoupdate.cfg' file then ran the updater. that is a bad move joey, nothing good will happen when you delete the autoupdate.cfg. If you are having issues still please attach your autoupdate_log.txt which can be found in the main install location Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted December 12, 2015 ED Team Share Posted December 12, 2015 .... and guess what... I have never been good at guessing, did my eldest son do his homework? am I close? if you are still having issues your whole logs folder zipped and your autoupdate_log.txt would be really helpful :) Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

gavagai Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) Tried deleting the bazar folder, tried using the dos window, tried updating from the start menu. Still no 1.5.2 for me. :huh: I'm curious why the update shows up earlier for some than others?

As far as I know it becomes available the same time for everyone, however your client will only check once every 24 hours, unless your go to the start menu / eagle dynamics / openbeta update to launch the client or use the cmd line Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

gavagai Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Finally got it sorted. I did all the things you suggest but it would not update. Then I remembered that I followed someone's advice for getting Nevada to install correctly when the installation was timing out: run notepad as administrator open c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts add line: 158.69.22.224 srv4.update.digitalcombatsimulator.com That's the address of srv3 and seems to work around it. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2575497#post2575497 I removed that line and then it updated.
