Sabre 1.2.16 installer?

[heli3]

Hi everyone. 

 

Does anyone keep the "F-86F_1.2.16.43180.9-9" installer from 2015?

 

I got an ultra-potato PC from 2010 that can't run the current version of World, and lost the old installer so i can't use my Sabre key to enjoy it.

 

I've searched in many sites and just found this, but doesn't seems to be working:

Thanks!

Would 1.2.4 do?  I have DCS World 1.2.4 on DVD but I would have to check and see if I had the F-86F at that point. I kept the installers for the modules on a DVD, too.

 

edit: I just checked my account and it seems I bought the Sabre in July 2014 - so I should have a back up of the installer.

Johny, that would be really appreciated if you could send me your Sabre installer in this thread or by PM!

OK I'll have a look and dig it out

Slight issue - it seems 1.2.4 was before the version you want - and the Sabre wasn't released then. The date on my back-up disc is April 2013 - that was before the Sabre. In any case, at the moment my PC can't read the disc - I'll try it in my retro rigs, but in all probability the Sabre won't be on it - sorry.

 

edit - yeah, I can confirm that this backup was on 30th April 2013 and I bought the Sabre in July 2014, so it won't be on it.

@heli3 - where are you located? i.e. what country?

 

I have a large amount of PCs here and might be able to send you an upgrade so you can at least run v1.5.8 - or if you can get a decent enough graphics card, v2.5 - just depends on postage costs.

 

edit - you can pm if you like

You should be able to download the appropriate version of F-86F from the command line while in the "DCS World\bin" directory of your 1.2.16 DCS install, the command is

 

• DCS_Updater.exe install F-86F

 

from the windows command prompt or

 

• .\DCS_Updater.exe install F-86F

 

from PowerShell.

 

See this thread for more detail, DCS versions, Module names, etc.

I thought that should be possible, but I didn't know how exactly it was done so I didn't mention it.

 

I found a second disc with my 1.2.4 modules on it and at that time there were a grand total of six! And no, they didn't include the F-86F.

 

The 1.2.4 modules: Black Shark 2; A-10C; P-51D; Flaming Cliffs 3; Combined Arms; UH-1H

Just tried to download from here with Internet Explorer and worked.

 

Thank you everyone!
