uboats Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) Based on AlaskanGrizzly's post , I think I have figured out how the subfolder (in Kneeboard foler) should be named such that once you are in the cockpit of corresponding aircraft, the kneeboard can only load the certain pages (To reduce the tons of pages in current situation). I think the name follows this rule: create an SP mission and set preferred AC as client. Then after entering the game, there will be an AC list which should look like this: PILOT Mi-8MT (xxxxx) PILOT Su-27 (xxxxx) PILOT F-86F Sabre (xxxxx) where (xxxxx) is the group name defined in ME, while the name after 'PILOT'. e.g. Mi-8MT/F-86F Sabre is used as the name of subfolder. AlaskanGrizzly tested most of thm and I tested F-86F and Mi-8. And I also think for future ACs, like MiG-21BIS, they should follow the same rule. You can put the subfolders in DCS/Bazar/Terrain/Kneeboard or Saved Games/DCS/Kneeboard and they have the same effect. Then to view the certain pages in each AC, you should use ] to right direction. Here is the subfolder names for current all ACs: A-10C A-10A F-15C MiG-29S Su-25 Su-25T Su-27 Su-33 FW-190D9 Ka-50 P-51D TF-51D Uh-1H F-86F Sabre Mi-8MT Thanks AlaskanGrizzly again, and hope he can make his Kneeboard app capable of this subfolder, as well as global pages.

zaelu Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Nice mod!! Is there a way to add custom pages for a specific mission only? Maybe if we insert in miz file a KNEEBOARD folder with custom pages?

LiveBait Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) zaelu, almost......... .miz\KNEEBOARD\IMAGES\your images Open this miz file up and have a look. When in mission, scroll the kneeboard backwards to view images. That is why the images are numbered in the high 30's. oh and thanks for sharing this uboats.images test.miz Edited September 24, 2014 by LiveBait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzles Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I've been looking at this for the Mig21. What I've found is that you don't need to create an SP mission with a client to find out the name. Just go into Entry.lua (/mods/aircraft/xxx) and look for the line for "make_flyable" as it seems to contain the name matching the Kneeboard folder entry. Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!

zaelu Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Thanks LiveBait! :thumbup: Buzzles, what is the name of the folder for Mig21? "MiG-21Bis" didn't worked for me.

Buzzles Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Thanks LiveBait! :thumbup: Buzzles, what is the name of the folder for Mig21? "MiG-21Bis" didn't worked for me. Mig21 is currently bugged. I've posted a bug report and the fix here. If you'd be really kind and post saying you'd like that feature as well, then LN might actually implement it. 1 Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!

CHSubZero Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 This is how I enhanced it. I copy all my kneeboard pages to Bazar\Terrain\Kneeboard\ so it is JSGME compatible.

Devrim Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I didn't get it CHSubZero. With your code, can we see MiG-21 pages in this mod?

CHSubZero Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Here is the working code. If you add this in init.lua () it will scan Bazar\Terrain\Kneeboard\Mig-21BIS\ first. local terrain_path = get_terrain_related_data("KNEEBOARD") local unit_name = get_aircraft_type() if unit_name ~= nil then scan_path(terrain_path..'/'..unit_name) end My Mods: DCS User Files Modules owned: EVERY Module :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying his code isn't useful, but it's specifically for the following path: I copy all my kneeboard pages to Bazar\Terrain\Kneeboard\ so it is JSGME compatible. @Devrim, if you want it in Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard\Mig21Bis, you be best served adding the code I posted.

9.JG27 DavidRed Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 ok i managed to add custom kneeboard-pages to certain aircraft, and i also managed to add custom pages to certain missions... what i couldnt get to work though: -add custom pages for certain aircraft into certain missions also, would there be a way to get rid off the default kneeboard pages on a server?so that when players join they automatically have a reduced customized kneeboard?

iFoxRomeo Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 To add custom pages to the MiG-21 Kneeboard, without modifying anything, simply use its "mods" folder X:\...\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\MiG-21BIS\Cockpit\KNEEBOARD\indicator\CONTENT Put you pages into this folder and they should be shown on the Mig´s kneeboard.
