philstyle Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Is the Vioggen Kneeboard still broken for others in 2.1.1 (i.e. missing images etc.) This seems to be the case at least for Normandy Map. Also, the ground/ terrain radar shows no terrain in normandy. Does it actually "read" the ground live or is it just using pre-programmed map data to "see" what is below the pilot?

The radar uses a true raycaster to cast rays. It is not a "prebaked" solution. I believe some kneeboard fixes were just completed.

amalahama Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Also, the ground/ terrain radar shows no terrain in normandy. Does it actually "read" the ground live or is it just using pre-programmed map data to "see" what is below the pilot? You need to use radar in log mode IIRC and play a bit with the gain in order to see some terrain features. It's not easy and needs some training, but it's possible, also in Normandy. What the algorithm they use still misses is the detection of individual big objects like bridges or runways - but I hope they will find a fix in the future.

ApoNOOB Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Does this affect me in 1.5.7 release version, I can't see my custom kneeboard pages and am wondering if it is this bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LotusDragon Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I have broken kneeboard maps in the Viggen in the Nevada map since the Viggen release. Is it just me and is there a way to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknown Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 For me the kneeboard looks broken too. Attached are a couple of pictures, if i open the kneeboard i see some placeholder texture? I saw this texture on some 3d models(not viggen) aswell, have to check it again. If i open the kneeboard i see what picture kb1 shows, also if i move to the right through the kneeboard until i reach picture 3 kb3. If i switch left i can see what is shown in picture 2 kb2. The pages from picture 3 kb3 to piture 4 kb4 are fine.

LotusDragon Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 For me it looks exactly like in the screenshots above. I had this so far in all versions with the Nevada map. Now also with the latest DCS 2.2.0.12448 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Patricio Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Bumping this because I'm having the same problem in 2.5 with missing maps for NNTR and Normandy. Also had it with 2.2. In addition, the Viggen is the one plane that doesn't seem to play well with the Kneeboard Builder app right now (not that that's necessarily Heatblur's problem).

Korroz Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Also what is up with those battery empty pages at the end of the kneeboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketmanAL Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Can also confirm Caucasus map is missing. I'm really hoping that the kneeboard builder issues can get worked out because in VR it would be really helpful to have the computer codes in there.

Simon1279 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Same for me kneeboard is missing caucasus, nevada and normandy maps, and yes i hope that finally custom kneeboard pages will work, because of codes for the various weapons [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I7 8700K @ 4.9 ghz, SSD 850 evo, MSI Z370 Gaming Pro, GTX 1080Ti, F/A-18C in the garage, F-16C in the backyard, F-14B in the garden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
