uboats Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 In current version, DCS supplies LANG choice for cockpit texture (only RU and EN) which is also applied to TOOLTIPS language. We know that many simmers have made localized cockpit textures for players, however current rules make the installation and management of those DIY textures a little bit inconvenient: before & after update/repair of DCS, players have to unload, and then load the CP textures using either JSGME or manually copy/paste. To make the DCS more scalable in cockpit textures I raise my suggestions: 1. Set the LANGUAGE option in Option->Game for TOOLTIPS only 2. For each aircraft tab in Option->Special, create a drop-down menu, such that simmers are able to choose their preferred cockpit texture 3. Simmers just need to put the texture files in a proper location, then the drop-down menu can automatically show the existing texture folders under that location, like what ED has done for Skins. If this can be done (personally, I think the workload of coding is not heavy), simmer can easily manage and enjoy their cockpit textures in a more comfortable way.

uboats Posted November 12, 2014 Author Posted November 12, 2014 I have done it and players can have cockpit language independent from the tooltip language. http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2227233&postcount=1 But I don't know how to make this script automatically recognize the folder instead of pre-setting in the script.
