World BS english RICARDO HD Blue pit

If I'm not wrong, Ricardo asked about Photoshop work file for Russian version to speed it up.

But no reply from anyone I think...

Zmey HS is the man to ask in that regard.

This dont work for me. The pit keep all black

read a few posts back there is an edited version with corrected paths... that works for many.

You need to rename the "english" folder to anything(...Bazar/Liveries/Cockpit_Ka-50/).

If you do that you will lose miror

I'm not actually on my rig but i'm sure that you need to rename an english folder. Try in bazar\liveries\ka50\.....

Pepin.

1) Download the Rar file (660 bytes) that attached to this post.

2) Go to ".../DCS World/Mods/aircrafts/Ka-50/Liveries/Cockpit_Ka-50/" folder and find "english" folder, and rename it to anything (for example, "helloworld").

3) Extract my file into DCS World.

That's it. You'll see Ricardo's new Blue Pit and you'll not lose your mirrors (if enabled).

Have fun... :beer:

englishfolder&description.rar

got it. Thank u Ricardo and thank u Devrim. I like it!!

I wrote and asked ZmeyHS to send Ricardo his psd files with Russian labels, but I don't know if they got in touch ... :(

Yet, this is a Russian helicopter and should have Russian labels.

I dont have them, they went into oblivion with my old hdd.

Oh no! Could You translate this Ricardos English cockpit to Russian?

That would require spare time and bs2 installed. I don't have both of them now.

DCS has already Russian words (texts) on Ka-50's original cockpit. May be it can be used for Ricardo's BluePit.

There are a lot of panels black again in V1.2.3 while some panels have the modded textures. ED mixed some files I'm afraid... Anyone else noticed this or is it a problem on my end?

EDIT:

added pic...

I have no problems with the pit.

I used the updater to install 1.2.3 after uninstall all my mods in JSGME, then reload with JSGME and everything worked and Ricardo's pit is fine.

I did the exact same thing??? :huh:

I even did a manual install. The mod is in the right folder but when in-game, most textures appear to be default, while some textures are good...

This puzzles me :(

EDIT:

A clue: When I remove the texture package, DCS is still able to find textures somewhere (Sorcery!). These are (no surprise) the textures that override Ricardo's textures! Any idea where this texture backup is located. My delete button is ready because they disable the beautifull HD textures!

EDIT2:

Problem solved. Because I repaired DCS before the update, the folder english in DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\Ka-50\Liveries\Cockpit_Ka-50 returned )it was renamed to (_english). JSGME doesn't cover this of course!

Just checked the JGSME manual, it is possible to add empty files appended with "-remove" to remove files for JGSME-mods!

I've tried to add the -remove to the bunch of files inside the english folder, file attached (but I have not tested it yet myself)

JGSME-remove for Ricardos Blue HD cockpit.zip

Oh my...

Tietze, instead that, isn't renaming english folder's name working?

(Or did I miss something?)

Yep, but I'm just experimenting with using JSGME - automating it all for my lazy shiny metal a.. ;-)

(when using the -remove files I expect JSGME to backup/move files as needed)

[edit: Yes, it works - JSGME backs up the the files to "!BACKUP\Mods\aircrafts\Ka-50\Liveries\Cockpit_Ka-50\english"]

hello,

i just drop the old file to replace the new one and i have the same issue as everybody.

what shoud be the manual changes to do to make this mod work.

(name to change and lines to rewrite and location of files).

thanks

what shoud be the manual changes to do to make this mod work.

1. Download: Ricardos KA-50Textures.zip.
   
2. Copy it here: DCS world/Mods/Aircraft/Ka-50/cockpit/Resources/Model/Textures/Cockpit/
   
3. Rename the english folder for the normal cockpit to something else, it is located here: DCS World/Mods/aircrafts/Ka-50/Liveries/Cockpit_Ka-50
   
4. Create a new english folder.
   
5. Drop devrims description.lua in there.
   
6. Eventually install the compass fix by Devrim. It should replace "Ka-50 inscripts.dds" inside the zipfile downloaded in step 1.
   

It is really simple to make a JSGME-package that just does all this with a 1-click install (and I have done so for personal use). But I have no idea if the authors will be ok with re-releasing this repackaging of their mod.

Hi, just got thumbs up from RICARDO on dropping this zip-file prepared for JSGME, it includes Devrims compass-fix and description.lua (and can also be used if you're not using JSGME - just do step 3-5 from the post above):
