dburne Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) 2.7 official patch notes have now been posted, hopefully not too much longer. Wow that is one huge changelog list. Edited April 14, 2021 by dburne 1
Bremspropeller Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Changelog: Spoiler https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/170893-dcs-world-25-changelog-and-updates-of-open-beta/page/5/?tab=comments#comment-4624748 Still no Cyprus, though.
DBFlyguy Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 My goodness! what a glorious patch! ? Most the modules got some love https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/changelog/openbeta/2.7.0.4625/ 1
dburne Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) 2.7 Update is live, getting it now. Main download after applying deltas appears to be just under 90 GB for me. Edited April 14, 2021 by dburne
Archie Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Treated myself to the P47, finally. Not my favourite ww2 aircraft, but that cockpit is gorgeous.
TimSell75 Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 How can I download it? Don´t find it on the DCS page nor in the game itseld?

Open command line and got into the bin folder of your DCS installation and use the command "dcs_updater.exe update" example: E:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\bin>dcs_updater.exe update

Bremspropeller Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 In case somebody wonders - that's what "clouds low" now looks like: I have to put them on low, but FPS-wise it seems okay. I'll do some more testing in a few days. 1
Bremspropeller Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Looks like there's some serious oversweeping going on... 3
DD_fruitbat Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 OK. Wow. Some of the cloud presets in the mission builder, And me tooling around in an F16, I'm getting no discernible fps drop, I'm very impressed!!!! 4 4

Just finished work and I'm downloading now. At least it's a good speed, Steam feeds me 7.7MB a second. I'm not going to complain about that. Can't wait to Harrier-ize those clouds. And yes, I will drink and fly.

In my shame, I only later realized that "Porter is our Profession" works just as well and also tastes a million times better. Hell, I don't even like pilsners.

dburne Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Clouds are awesome along with other improvements. Some new sounds, some great new explosion graphics.
CanadaOne Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 I like the Clouds! Not perfect, and I got a few funny animations here and there, but i-n-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y better than before. And improvements to come no doubt. That said, I've barely run 25% of the presents. And maybe it's just my addled mind, but the 2.75 rockets on the Harrier have an annoying new "Pew! Pew!" sound, and the Ka-50 also has a kind of tin can sound on takeoff. Going to take a while to unpack all the new stuff and see what's what.
DBFlyguy Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Welp...I've had multiple CTD's today... can't remember the last time I've had a CTD with DCS... something is up with the patch, guess I'll see if theres a hotfix in the next few days...

Rename the DCS folder in Saved Games. Run a DCS repair. Start DCS then close it, so a new folder is created. Take the input files from the Config folder in your backup DCS folder and copy them into the newly-created one so that your key bindings are restored. 1

Bremspropeller Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Ermagherd, which plane/ map to buy first on sale?
Bremspropeller Posted April 15, 2021 Posted April 15, 2021 Stumbled and accidentally bought a couple of modules on sale... Also: 1
