A hotfix is now available to adapt to OpenBeta build 53756. No Helios upgrade is required. The procedure for installing the hotfix is:

  • In Profile Editor, select the DCS Additional Viewports interface (does not matter which profile)
  • Click "Revert Patches" if that button is shown to uninstall any left over patches. If the button says "Install Patches" then your files are already clean and you can just go on to the next step.
  • Exit Profile Editor
  • Unpack the hotfix zip file, so that the included "Patches..." folder becomes Documents\Helios\Patches\…

WARNING: You must extract the entire zip and preserve the directory structure from the zip file exactly. The top-level "Patches" folder goes into "Helios" and that's it.

  • Start Profile Editor
  • Select DCS Additional Viewports
  • Click "Install Patches"

The hotfix zip file is attached.

Patching_Hotfix53756.zip

Note: this is safe to install for everyone. These files are only selected if the DCS build number is 53755 or greater.

There will be a final version of this patch cluster included in the next Helios release, numbered 53756 so that it supersedes this hotfix in case there are any changes.
