AGC Modpack- something goes wrong

Post by Kondor » Wed Aug 31, 2016 6:25 am

Hi Guys,
I've downloaded and installed (via JSGME, of course) the modpack from here: http://aircombatgroup.co.uk/forum/viewt ... =77&t=4109. The problem is that each time I try to hop in to the cockpit and fly, I get this error message:
Image
It's obviously related to ACG Modpack, when I disable it in JSGME, everything is back to normal. I've got only two mods in the manager- ACG Modpack and 104th Terrain Textures Package- so it wasn't that hard to figure out what is causing problem.
Any idea what is going on and how can I bypass the obstacle?
Thanks for any help you could provide.


EDIT:
I see photobucket went dumb and decided to downgrade the quality of every image I upload.
Anyway, the error message reads:

To my knowledge the modpack is outdated. If my memory serves me well it was to improve spotting in DCS 1.2

Thanks, Falcon. If that's the case, does ACG WW2 server require any particular mods to fly on it?

This Modpack was pre 1.5.
No more mods needed.

Hi Jockel,
Do the DCS virgins amongst us need any additional software to be able to fly on our server?
I have recently bought DCS2 and have been flying offline but would prefer to fly online on our server but can't find the ACG server on the multiplayer list. When I typed in the server address directly it said I needed an additional terrain pack but I couldn't find where to locate that.
Keen to get that Dora in the air.
Thanks
Lofty

I may not be Jockel, but anyway:

Right now there's three different versions of DCS 1.5 stable and open beta as the 2.0 open alpha. Until 2.5 will get released everything with 1.5 is the caucasus map our server is also running on. 2.0 is only the Nevada map. Depending which version you're running you will get a different set of servers since you're limited to one map.

So to fly on our server I'm afraid you'd have to download 1.5 (stable I believe is what the server runs on. But that's really a question for Jockel now)
