Version 1.8.0.4 Released Version 1.8.0.4 is now available. -Fixed crash on startup due to recent change in C-101 entry.lua

Your imported png files are saved in the main Kneeboard Builder folder in the 'Kneeboard Groups' folder.

A few files changed that are causing the crash with the latest DCS update. I'm working on trying to get a fix put together and hope to push it out within the next day or so. I appreciate your patience. EDIT: It appears to be an issue with the C-101. Until I come up with a permanent fix, for now if you are not flying the C-101 you can rename the 'entry.lua' located at '...\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\C-101\entry.lua' (ie entry_old.lua) and Kneeboard Builder should start working for you again. Please let me know if you still have issues.

In the preferences page what do you have set for your saved games directory? Are you using the OpenBeta install directory or the custom directory?

After selecting your F-16 profile in the Kneeboard Builder taskbar icon look at the path '...\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\F-16C\Cockpit\Scripts' and open the 'device_init.lua' file in a text editor like Notepad++. At the very bottom of the file the second to last line should read: dofile(lfs.writedir().."Data/Kneeboard Builder Config/Custom Kneeboard Settings/F-16C/declare_kneeboard_device.lua") That path should point to the "declare_kneeboard_device.lua" found in your saved games directory at the path '...Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Data\Kneeboard Builder Config\Custom Kneeboard Settings\F-16C'. If it is not pointing to the correct path or if that file is not there then your cockpit will not render correctly.

Setting kneeboard positions in Kneeboard Builder does pass IC checks. I just tried it after the latest Open Beta update and it still works. If you find otherwise, please let me know.

Version 1.8.0.0 Released Version 1.8.0.3 is now available. -Fixed crash due to improper parsing of A-10A entry.lua -Fixed system tray icon not appearing for some users -Fixed kneeboards being built to incorrect directories

I'll try to put out an official update after work then.

Please try replacing your 'KneeboardBuilder.exe' with this one and see if it makes a difference: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AuUSzvHgl6XJlKkElGuX5ScioPUbAw?e=qkW26l Let me know how it works out. Thanks!

I have been able to recreate the problem on my end. I am working on a fix.

That allows KBB to manage the kneeboards for user made aircraft mods located in the '.../Saved Games/DCS/Mods/aircraft' folder.

Are you showing any errors logs that name Kneeboard Builder specifically? Also, I have added a download link to the prior stable version (1.7.1.1) on the download page of the website: http://www.dcskneeboardbuilder.com/download.html

Is KBB still visible in the task manager? If not, can you check your windows event logs for any errors related to KBB? It might be crashing silently.

Version 1.8.0.2 Released Version 1.8.0.2 is now available. -Fixed crash caused by uninstalled and partially installed aircraft modules

Can you send them to me?

Version 1.8.0.1 Released Version 1.8.0.1 is now available. -Fixed crash with non-flyable mods in aircraft mods directory -Added option in Preferences to enable/disable loading aircraft mods from mods directory

Version 1.8.0.0 Released Version 1.8.0.0 is now available. -New aircraft modules will now automatically work with KBB without needing the developer to put out an update (this fixes the F-14 kneeboard being built to the wrong kneeboard folder) -3rd Party Modules loaded from Saved Games/Mods/Aircraft should automatically work with KBB -In 'Create Custom Kneeboard' window added ability to select variant of aircraft (ie L-39C or L-39Z) and the default or custom kneeboard (if available for the selected aircraft) -Added ability to open both the custom kneeboard and default kneeboard locations from 'View -> Kneeboard Folders' (if available for the selected aircraft) -Aircraft manual links (View -> Aircraft) now working for all aircraft -Other minor fixes

It is under Options -> Kneeboard Profiles -> Modify. It should be IC compliant unless ED has changed something recently.

Try resetting your view or taking a few steps backwards. You might be too far forward to see the menu.

Is Kneeboard Builder still visible in your task manager when that happens?

It sounds like you will need to use the 'Width Offset' option in the DCS Resolution panel. By entering -1024 in to the Width Offset it will restrict the kneeboard to your main screen resolution of 2560x1440.

This can help you re-position your kneeboard: http://www.dcskneeboardbuilder.com/ Let me know if you have any questions about it. If you still want to do it manually I can explain which file to modify.

I just flew mission 2 and realized after takeoff that the fuselage tank and both drop tanks were empty. I ended up having plenty of fuel for the mission anyway. I am not sure if that is the case for the other missions yet. I am really enjoying the campaign and the historical details you have included, especially the briefings.

Version 1.7.1.1 Released Version 1.7.1.1 is now available. -Fixed silent crash when starting Kneeboard Builder with 'Lite Mode' enabled.

Looks like there is a bug with the 'lite mode' option. For now you can disable it by opening the 'KneeboardBuilder.exe.Config' file in the Kneeboard Builder folder with a text editor and change the line: <add key="LiteMode" value="True" /> to <add key="LiteMode" value="False" /> Thanks for letting me know. I'll try working on a fix for it.
