JG-1_Vogel Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 Apologies if this has been discussed before, my search-fu is weak these days. Since patching to the latest 1.5 version I've noticed that my cockpit tool tips for the MiG-21 are all in Russian despite running the English version of the game. I've not been involved with DCS for quite a while, so I'm still getting used to the new UI for the main screen but couldn't see options to alter which language the tool tips show as, only to enable or disable them outright. It's driving me nuts, since I've mostly forgotten what many of the switches do in the pit of the MiG. Any feedback would be appreciated. Also, on a separate note. Whenever I eject, about a dozen duplicates of the canopy spawn instead of the one. My pilot leaves the aircraft but the model still shows the canopy attached minus the pilot model. It's a bit peculiar.
1.JaVA_Platypus Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 For the hints, you can select "english" as cockpit language in the options\special\MiG-21 menu. But if you, like me, want an authentic experience and want to keep the russian texts, there is an easy fix. Go into your DCS World\Mods\Aircraft\MiG-21bis\cockpit folder and open the file "hint_localizer.lua"with Notepad++. Line five says: Country = "RU" Change RU to EN and enjoy. :) As for the canopy, it is known. I thought it was supposed to be fixed in the last patch. Maybe you can change some of the graphic settings (most specifically "view distance") and see if that helps. Happy Flying! :pilotfly:
