[MOD] DCS Kneeboard Position by uboats


Recommended Posts

Via this mod, you can determine the kneeboard position (left or right).

This setting is applied for all modules not individual (if Left, then all show kb on the left).

 

v2.5: support DCS World 2.5

v1.1: add two more position, fix OA bug

 

it's JSGME ready for DCS World 2.5

 

it has four positions:

MainUI left/right

Full Monitor left/right (e.g. 3-monitor, then left means left corner of the left monitor, right means right corner of right monitor)

Ah. You sir, are awesome.

 

Can I make a request for us triple monitors users? Can you position the Kneeboard at 3840 by any chance? :)

This.

 

I used to modify init.lua manually in ..\KNEEBOARD\indicator\ folder. This mod is more official-ish.

 

Really great idea.

Thanks a lot!

By the way, gives me a crash - DCS 2.0.2 - if activated via JSGME.

 

I have to deactivate the module in order for DCS to start normally.

I will when I get home.

Please do that a look at the bold section above! That'd be awesome if you can implement that!

I second the above. Being able to position the kneeboard up and down would be perfect.

"Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil. For where there is one, there is always three. I preparest my aircraft to receive the Iron that will be delivered in the presence of my enemies. Thy ALCM and JDAM they comfort me. Power was given unto the aircrew to make peace upon the world by way of the sword. And when the call went out, Behold the "Sword of Stealth". And his name was Death. And Hell followed him. For the day of wrath has come and no mercy shall be given."

Hello Uboats!

 

I finally had time to try V1.1 but the kneeboard always sticks to the outer most monitor for some reason.

 

Any help with that?

Maybe it is because I don't have a MainUI section in the Viewport.lua file I am using?

yes, i think you need to add UIMainView

e.g

UIMainView = Viewports.Center

Unfortunately, this mod makes the integrity check fail on 1.5.4, but will only show up red after running a single player mission or after trying to connect to an ic'ed server:

 

scripts/aircrafts/_common/cockpit/kneeboard/declare_kneeboard_device.lua
scripts/aircrafts/_common/cockpit/viewporthandling.lua
scripts/aircrafts/_common/cockpit/kneeboard/indicator/init.lua

Hello uboats!

 

Adding that line does not change the position of the kneeboard to the center monitor for some reason.

Kneeboard V 1.1

 

DCS World V 2.6.22.24 with three monitors

 

 

Have installed all three folders, separately

Repaired DCS World between each installation

Options/Miscellaneous hangs with a blank window, with each case

 

 

I am wondering if I should install them in a particular sequence and in what order?

/DCS World/MissionEditor, 2 files were replaced

/aircrafts/scripts, seems that no files were replaced

 

 

Am wondering what I Missed?

Can this be just placed extracted to DCS I don't have JSGME?

 

Yes you can, but the modded files will most likely be overwritten on the next DCS update.

 

A Mod Manager allows you to quickly disable all of your Mods prior to applying updates, and re-enabling them afterwards.
