  1. Hey PeterP. I love what you've done to enable to have the key commands on the kneeboard of the aircraft. I managed to put the kneeboard folder in the Miz as instructed, but I don't know how to add the explanation in the briefing and/or add a hint text on how to use it via SLMOD (I don't even know what SLMOD is). I'm sorry if these seem like dumb questions but I'm very new to DCS World and FC3 and haven't played LOMAC for many years (which is why I've forgotten all the keyboard commands). Tbh, I lost interest in modern jet flight sims and it was only with the release of DCS World on Steam (which I hadn't even heard of up till then) and seeing it's potential, that piqued my interest again, along with the BMS project for Falcon 4. Could you do an idiot's step by step guide please?
  2. PeterP isn't an alarmist. Users should be grateful to him, not being critical! He's just trying to improve the game and his mods, especially the kneeboard one, is a superb addition and very, very handy. We need to encourage people to get back into flight simulation and that means making it more user friendly to those turned off by the learning curve. People like PeterP help to bring that goal closer.
  3. Wow! Thankyou PeterP. That's brilliant!
  4. Anyway, thankyou very much for your help cichildfan. Much appreciated
  5. Maybe so but they are simulating much older aircraft that don't require so many key commands to memorise. As for Cliffs Of Dover, there is a mod called Team Fusion mod which has a keyguide, BMS uses many of the same keys as Falcon 4 which came with a keyguide and Rise Of Flight has one you can print out from their website (although I maybe mistaking that for one of it's fan websites).
  6. Can you tell me where it saves these HTML files to please because I did what you said but I've just gone through the DCS World directories, but couldn't find any HTML files anywhere? Thankyou
  7. Thanks for that cichlidfan. I have to say though that really sucks. I've never come across a flight sim in all my years in gaming that doesn't have a keyguide! That is a severe oversight and one which ED need to rectify asap. A flight sim with all those different aircraft and no keyguide? Outrageous and lazy on behalf of ED and there's no excuse!
  8. I can't find a keyguide for FC3 anywhere. The new manuals are excellent but none of them have just a keyguide that you can either print out and put on your lap to refer to as you play, or in my case, I just got a small monitor off a friend so that I can have the manual/keyguide displayed on that to refer to while I play the game, which I have displayed on my flat screen tv. I have the keyguide for LOMAC obviously but there are a lot of changes in FC3 plus I've also been told that all the keys are being changed or have already been, in an update. Unfortunately (and maybe you can tell me why), when you click on the manual or keyguide displayed on the smaller monitor to change page or scroll down, the game running on my main display minimizes to the task bar, although it does keep on running because I can still hear the sound and you can click on it on the task bar to bring it back onto the screen. But this is a big pain in the backside when you have to refer to the manuals so often with such complex games as the DCS series. On the Steam version it's even worse because it moves the manual nearly completely off the screen of the smaller monitor. I thought that in these days of only getting manuals in PDF format which are prohibitively expensive to print out on an inkjet printer, getting the smaller monitor and having the manual to refer to on that, would be a great workaround to no longer getting a physical manual like you used to in the old days of PC Gaming, where you could have it on your lap to refer to as you played. It does actually work in a lot of games (although not any on Steam) but unfortunately not in any of the DCS World modules (I also have the A10C, KA50 2 and the Huey which I bought on Steam). But because I have LOMAC and wanted to get FC3, I now use the non Steam version of DCS World (there was no way I was going to buy each of the FC3 planes individually, which is what you have to do to play FC3 aircraft on Steam. Providing they release all the aircraft featured in FC3, it would end up setting you back over £120!). Anyway, back to my original question, where is the FC3 keyguide to be found please?
