English cockpit

[Rocky49]

Did the last hotfix add english cockpit for MI8?

On the special options menu there is a drop down for default and a chinese cockpit if i'm not mistaken, but no english cockpit yet...

 

I'm pretty sure we'll have an english cockpit soon:)

Thanks for that information. I am away from home for next 8 days so could not open DCS 1.5 to check it out myself

Yes, or just use devrim's cockpit mod. It works fine on 1.5 with a slight path change.

Up to 1.5 I did use Devrins but could not get it to work in 1.5

At work right now, but if I remember correctly, you need to change his mod for the beta so that it lands in a different directory. The cockpit texture directory moved up 2 levels I think.

To work with the 1.5.1 beta:

 

1. Unpack his mod into your _MODS folder, but do NOT install it yet.

2. switch into his Mods/aircraft/Mi-8MTV2/Cockpit/Resources/Model/ directory

3. move Textures/ folder up 2 levels, into Mods/aircraft/Mi-8MTV2/Cockpit

 

Then install the mod with JSGME and you should be good to go.

 

Basically, Cockpit/Resources/Model/Textures just became Cockpit/Textures, and otherwise everything should be the same.
