dburne Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 I updated with the latest 1.5.1 today for the Open Beta, notice on the " special" tab for the graphics gui, for the KA-50 it shows a customized cockpit option, of "default", and "English"... Was this there before? If it was I did not notice it.

flanker0ne Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 How this work? If I undestand correctly with this new structure we can keep installed several Cockpits (like Ricardo Black or Blue) without the need to overwhrite with JSGME everytime we want to switch in between, right?

Yurgon Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 If I understand correctly, with the Ka-50 this switches between Russian (default) and English cockpits. I was quite a bit surprised when, in the middle of my Republic campaign, the cockpit was suddenly in Russian, until I found this option to switch it back to English. :thumbup: Of course if we could use this to manage cockpit mods like Ricardo's pit, that would be awesome, but I'm not sure whether that's going to work or how much fiddling we'd have to do in order to get it to work.
Tarres Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Yes, works like FlankerOne says. You need a description.lua file along with the files of the cockpit. The path for the "custom cockpit" is dcsopenbeta/mods/(the plane)/liveries/cockpit. You can see how it works in the L-39C, MiG-15bis or the Mi-8 for example.
flanker0ne Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 That's nice. How I should to modify the description.lua to allow it to read the Cockpit texture inside the .zip? Or I need to unbox the whole texture.zip and write in the lua, line by line, for every texture? SCOPRI DI PIU': https://www.amvi.it/joinus.php DISCORD COMBINEDOPS The Battle Planning Tool
Cdr84 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 I switched the option to English and most buttons changed, but still have Russian language Abris and Ekran spoken voice? Any ideas? I manually edited to get right, but hope we don't have to go down that road all the time.
dburne Posted November 10, 2015 Author Posted November 10, 2015 I switched the option to English and most buttons changed, but still have Russian language Abris and Ekran spoken voice? Yeah I noticed that as well, hopefully they can get that changed in one of the future updates.

San Patricio Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Can I ask what you edited to get the English language Abris and Ekran back?
fastfreddie Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Look under the gameplay tab in options. Avionics Language will also need to be changed from the default.
DieHard Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 (edited) I switched the option to English and most buttons changed, but still have Russian language Abris and Ekran spoken voice? Any ideas? I manually edited to get right, but hope we don't have to go down that road all the time. There is another setting to set to get the English ABRIS for the Ka-50 and the English speaking Betty. "Avionics Language," I think, under the Gameplay tag. It works fine. Edited November 15, 2015 by DieHard [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

I would like to know the specifics to be able to have custom cockpits within this setting. I am still using JSGME. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
NeilWillis Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Everything is explained here guys: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=152377&highlight=Uboat It will allow you to use the new options facility with multiple cockpits - including those made by 3rd party modders.
