I publish today the first beta for the 2.3.0 release. The 2.3.x is a large rework of the code including great new features including :
- Datalink simulation
- Start of ESM (RWR feature)
- DCS Marks and IP support
- Vulkan support
- new generator engine
- and lot more….
As it is a “beta”, consider this version as unstable.
You can see the replay of my Twitch stream last week presenting the new features:
To install the beta, you need to activate the Beta repository of LotAtc. Just launch LotAtc_installer.exe and follow the 3 steps below:
Once done, go in Add/remove components to add 2.3.x in parallel than 2.2.x.
The 2.3.x is not compatible with 2.2.x branch, network protocol has changed so you need that Client AND Server has same version 2.2.x or 2.3.x. You can install both versions in parallel !!! See the next video to know how to do !
Thanks to all for using beta and sending me feedbacks!
