Maverick\Radar screen -How to set up?

[Fracture]

Does the particular screen mesh need a specific name, or texture, or object property, or all of the above lol?

It needs specific Connectors to define Center, Top, Left, Right, Bottom,

 

And it needs to be coded in the cockpit systems to use it.

I was trying to use the A-10A as a learning example. It's also used in the A-7E mod.

The A-10A maverick screen only uses

PNT-TVM-DOWN

PNT-TVM-CENTER

PNT-TVM-RIGHT

So I created those in my test model and linked them to the model.

if the system is not coded in the systems of the cockpit you're using no amount of placing connectors is going to work.

 

I have placed connectors in 3D Models and exported it and used F-15C Avionics w/ Radar, MFD and TEWS placed in custom locations, as well as RWR and MAV using A-10A Pit.

Hey Skate,

it wasn't a coding issue as I was just doing a EDM replacement of the A-10A cockpit for testing, it was an EDM issue, which is what I eluded to in my original question.

For further testing:

I exported with my screen mesh hidden and the E\O screen appeared where it would have been in the A-10A. So ok now we're getting somewhere.

 

I then unlinked the helpers from the screen mesh (on a whim) and what do you know, the E\O screen snapped right where I wanted it.

 

I thought helpers had to be linked to something, aparently not.

 

Thanks for trying to help, because any and all help is greatly appreciated. :)
