I know some of you are a bit in the dark as to when the release version will be available for you to update to, and wondering what's taking so long, so I've copied in the patch notes detailing the bugfixes and some of the ongoing issues the developers have come across: Improved NVG picture. ES and CN localization update. ME. Ships groups. Ship skill will not accidentally changed after mouse click. APC AVV-7 40mm Mk.19 HE ammunition replaced by HEDP. Added new model of small helipads (FARP) for single helicopter. Added AI China AWACS KJ-2000. DCS NTTR Object 'CONCREET_CAN" destroyed state corrected. DCS Ka-50 Added separate option slider for the helmet sight-ring displacement. DCS AJS-37 New feature! auto-generated data cartridge. Choosable in the kneeboard (# 6) The Auto-generated data cartridge is a cartridge with five pre-programmed waypoints, where the third waypoint will be located on the first expected enemy units. This waypoint will take into account projected target movement and if you follow Time on Target cues, you will intercept your target. This is a work in progress feature. You can now load a data-cartridge file stored in the saved games-folder without respawning. Details on this will be posted on the forums. New Export of ELINT-analysis data to Saved games-folder added! It will be located in the %SAVED_GAMES%/DCS_AJS37/ELINTData.info file. The DCS_AJS37-folder must exist for export to work.

You must be doing something wrong. It's there! Thanks for the post, server had restarted, but there's no autologon procedure, so the game won't start ... Fixed now!
