Yes! Study-Sims are dead long ago ... but it seems that no one told it to them! - so they still do what they always do. Edit: Serious??!! It took you 8mins to come to this conclusion - and you want to speak about study-sims ? Are you serious - I'm ashamed!

Sorry , I'm maybe getting old - can't find the 'request'. ...were icemaker and I did suggest it ? Edit: oh .- sorry I'm getting really old! Found it myself in my signature... >>> http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=88996 its a link in #5

sorry - I just need to 'vent' some little more... Did you know ?! : (No , you didn't - because I never told it before...) I already got some 'anonymous' emails that I have messed up their System/installation with my mods... that's the main reason I have personal massages disabled for unknown contacts... ... Just to save me form this "It doesn't work! what to do?!! ...and no other info at all" PM's that I got frequently - and in a greater frequent and more 'angrier' every day I didn't answered them immediately. It always just starts with a "Hi and thanks , but " than it gets a "- you may have missed my previous one.." than it's a " I saw you where on-line, but you didn't answered..." ... and in the end some of them just told me what kind of 'arrogant' person I am - and that they feel sorry for me... So , ... That's it how it goes...- Back to Topic! (please) ... and sorry for the "drama".

To schort cut a maybe long-winded discussion that was alrady held before - please jump over to this thread to learn more about "force-rim rudders and desktop-simulations with given common hardware": Can we have this little Huey feature in our BS?

´... and independently of your trim.

But at the product page they say: So what's wrong? - your expectation or the product ?! ;):) -nevermind-

OK - I took a breath outside and got a idea: @All IF you know how to rewrite the Read-Me/Documentation to make it better understandable and 'more' complete - Post it ! - don't only think about 'written words' - produce a video tutorial or whatever , just be creative! I would really appreciate it and rework Post #1 and the include Readme. Thanks for having a look and taking the time in advance !

Have a read: UH-1H without rudder pedals?

Why don't you - simply - read the Readme again, also follow the links in post one, and also read 'some'* of the post's in this thread and set up a new default view position that suits you better? ..and than maybe understand that it's YOU that has to take some action. Edit: Boris , don't get me wrong - it's not your fault. I'm just tired to answer on and on things that are already covered by the read-me and post one and are also talked through on and on again in this thread. Short: what fits for me doesn't fits for you - other screens, aspect and FOV and RL seat-position...many factors I don't have control over and even don't know - as people just post "don't work" - and they assuming I know what they seeing and sit in front... The Readme gives you already every info to edit/change (almost) every aspect of your view settings - I really don't know how I can make it better without visiting you and show it in person. *(well, this thread has now ~250 post's - you don't have to read them all - just read mine - and you will understand - as I tend to quote always the question I'm answering - so you get the info in a somewhat compressed way) I start to understand why ED doesn't put in this 'real- view' by default into DCS - because the consumers still expect that the software can read their mind how they want it to be - and don't want to dig a little deeper and find out how to set it up them self... I'm very happy with this mod , but I tend to remove this mod- as it bounds too much time (that I don't have ) just to keep things explained. And > I also think that it's a little disrespectful if you just put out a question in a thread where it is already covered many times - and it's more than obvious that you didn't really spend the time to look for a answer yourself . -maybe it's just me and I'm just too 'old-school' as I grew up in a time without internet and I had to wait sometimes many weeks for a new comutergames fanzine, with a floppy-disk to fix the most pressing bugs I wanted to be answered/fixed - and some of my reader-letters where answered too (!) . ... - so : sorry for that - it's not my intention to harm someone feelings. - just want to let you know that it somewhat hurts mine. and again - sorry: I'm just honest to you.

I assume it's still This: (I just try to prevent Viper from re-posting his on post;)) BTW: Please! Make sure that this "Fix" will not brake the function of having two FFB controllers working in sync at the same time. >>> Two MS FFB2 with Cougar Grip

Thanks for the report - will edit the readme when times comes. First you have to know that I personally jump very rarely jump into the FC3 planes for own pleasure - I use them almost exclusively to let have my friends/wife a ride at my pit- while it shouldn't be such complicated to make something burn. So things like this slipped through my attention and I just hoped to be noticed from others about 'bugs' - like you did! About fixing it: I wouldn't put high hopes in a Fix - the most part of FC3 is hard coded and buried in dll files - just see the feature to use the Su-27 pit in the Su-33 as a nice gimmick for taking just a spin - and nothing more.

Sobe, Yes, you must miss something , but your report gives little to none info what you have done at all - I'm not able to give you any more advises as restoring your DCS install to default and reading the documentation again and follow it to the dot. If you have afterwards still problems - please don't come back and simply report "it's not working -I tried everything" - this doesn't help. Instead please protocol every step you made so even my 92 years old grandma could reproduce it without that I /You have to sit besides her.

>>> KNEEBOARD Export for 'multimonitorsetup.lua' in all modules - DCS 1.2.4

Sorry I'm short at time , maybe someone else will answer your post in more detail. Here are two quotes from the Documentation - please answer now your questions yourself:

@ All I uploaded a slightly changed version of this mod (now 19 MB instead of 26 MB ) and I updated the FAQ in post #1 and you might want to read it! Changes are: - I converted all PNG imges to JPG in the "KNEEBOARD_MOD_PeterP\Common_Charts" folder - so its easy for you to convert them to DDS with mipmaps by using this tool > http://www.easy2convert.com/jpg2dds/ so you can lower the 'shimmering' at certain view angles/zoom levels. - Added a empty "kneeboard_mask-EMPTY.dds" , so its easy for you to remove the Tablet border if you use the Kneeboard only as viewport and not in-cockpit.

A) Most easy way: Copy your old SnapViews.lua (you made a backup , right?!) into your C:\Users\>YOUR USERNAME<\Saved Games\\DCS\Config\View and save only a New Default cockpit view - and readjust the snapview if necessary. >>> read post#3 for explanations why they don't match any more. B) A little more time consuming: Leave the files as they are and save absulute new snap-views from scratch. >>> Here is a "HowTo" >>> http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/wiki/Snap_views C) the crazy "I want it hard" way: Edit your C:\Users\>YOUR USERNAME<\Saved Games\\DCS\Config\View\SnapViews.lua manually and copy over the snapviews that you want to keep and edit them also ... - use the forum search for a 'how to' - a great fraction of DCS users do it still that way ...

>>> WinRAR <<< ...If you have still problems : Step out of your house > get some cake > go to your friendly neighbour with a I-net connection > show him this video > ask for help ! :)

Haha! That was exactly my starting point when I decided to develop this mod! - I was also first mad at the engineers of the P-51D that have placed the indicators at a absulute inconvenient position... - than I realised that the cockpit is fine and somewhat ergonomic , but your Neck/Head dimension is not fitting... and you can find examples like this an all 6DOF cockpits when you look closely at the cockpit design - not to be able to have a look at the radio in the A-10C , when the throttles are in idle, is one of the most prominent issue you have if you use the default view... but if you use this mod, almost everything makes sense. ...I feel very sorry for everyone that is still using the default view.

Thank you! To be correct and make things clear: The possibility to put pages in your mission is functioning since P-51D , and don't needs this mod . I 'just' rearranged the structure completely , so it doesn't get affected by a update and the user has a single directory for the charts. And pulled this function over to the A-10C and Ka-50. So: more than half of the Kudos has to go to the clever coders of ED ! ... but as so often: There is a lack in communicating it to the users via a clear documentation ;). So I simply put my 'instructions' right into the cockpit - so it gets very hard to miss this info. I just placed the info that a mod like this exists in the community-news to reach all Virtual Squadrons. ;) - see it as my input to save paper to smaller the global-warming and help you also to save some money for printing cartridges.

..and also for all others: Knee-board Tablet in all Modules ( also A-10C and Ka-50) >>> http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=107586 This little mod that I have put together should be a very helpful tool for you . Now you can make 100% sure that your cadets have all relevant info with them during a training/mission . and they have no excuse to mess all up and they can find their way even if their TAD-MFCD is perforated - and they never ever again tell you over TS that their dog/cat/whatever has eaten/destroyed their printed flight charts... . Have a look : Is this zoom close enough?! New colour patten for the flight plan and a outline for the way-point names: This Mod is alive and evolves !...

Finally a thread where I can answer without thinking ! 16th of may

Have a look at my reply in another thread: don't worry - my files are OK (and they differ... You have a problem at your system and it is not caused by any downloaded DCS-mod. Make a extensive virus/male-ware/System check !

don't worry - my files are OK (and they differ from the screen-shot just a little because I made some changes in-between)- but (I don't say that I'm free form failure! - If I do... - well , this can be some sort of failure...;)) it seems that you have some advert male-ware that takes you to some"funny places " if you trigger some cookies. - to be more clear: Whatever happens at your system: it's not my fault and the files are clean - you have a problem to fix on your side. EDIT: Just rechecked the files and now I saw that up to now 87 people downloaded it 100% - I would expect more reports like yours if there would be really something wrong.
