subseauk Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) Hi all. Completely new to DCS World and stumbling over download!! Ive downloaded the install files and when running that it goes straight to an update which is going to take about 4-5 days at present speed. ( my internet is giving 200mb + and is really fast on other stuff ). Is this usual or is there a faster method, would I be better downloading from steam? Thanks for the help guys :thumbup: ________________________________________________________ ASUS ROG Crosshair VI HERO motherboard ( latest bios etc ) Ryzen 7 1800x CPU Corsair Domiinator Platinum 16 GB (2x8Gb ) 3600MHz RAM EVGA Nvidia GTX 1080Ti 11Mb graphics card Samsung 860 1TB SSD ( Boot up and main program storage ) WD 2TB 7600rpm hdd Fractal S36 AIO CPU Cooler 200MB Internet connection _________________________________________________________ Edited April 25, 2020 by subseauk 1 ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII HERO (wifi) motherboard ( latest bios etc ) Ryzen 9 3900x CPU Corsair Domiinator Platinum 32 GB (4x8Gb ) 3600MHz RAM EVGA Nvidia GTX 1080Ti 11Mb graphics card Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB NVME M.2( Boot up and main program storage ) Fractal S36 AIO CPU Cooler Oculus Quest + LINK system Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS + CH Rudder Pro Aircraft: Gazelle, Huey, AV-8B, A10C, Spitfire Scenery etc: Super carrier, Syria, Persian Gulf, A10C Trng Qual, Worlds apart Spring 2025, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunnel_rat Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Hi, That sounds odd to me. My speed is twice yours and it still takes a while but like maybe 20~30 minutes. Make sure you are doing the tor download and not HTML. The tor is faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subseauk Posted April 25, 2020 Author Share Posted April 25, 2020 P.S. Welcome, I'm fairly new as well. BTW, nice set up you have there! Sounds like a nice setup and it should be except only 1 RAM module is being seen and the other is saying only 4Gb instead of 8Gb. As said previously internet speed sucks but the same cable into my laptop is flying!! As for DCS I don't know where the torrent download is? I just click on the DCS World download button!!

tunnel_rat Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 I'll have to bump the RAM issue or check with Corsair. If it was me I would just reset the ram in the slot and check again. As for the DL, that should be all you have to do, i.e., click the DL. Maybe try different time of the day, I don't know where the servers are but I had various DL speeds at different times of the day. Also, have you done a speed test on you system and/or bufferbloat test? Get CCleaaner program and clean out your system. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
