Runway,Airport Layout

[Cooter]

I'm looking to print out all runways and airports on Caucus map but I have no idea where to find anything. What should I search under Airports, runways, layouts, diagrams, I tried all but get directed to something completely irrelevant to what I'm looking for. All suggestions appreciated.

Your DCS folder/Doc/Charts/DCS_GND_Charts.pdf

Approach plates, I never heard that one before, thanks. I'll check my folder also.

I am not sure this will be what you are looking for but I will mention it anyway. If you go to the F10 map and zoom in on an airport you could print screen. I do this for other uses a lot. Get exactly what you want on the screen because you will end up w/ all of it. Hold down control and hit the PrtScn button. This puts it onto your clipboard. Open a picture editing app (I use paint.net) and click Edit and then Paste in the dropdown list. Now you have your screen shot ready to edit however you want.

^ No need to use extrernal app. Just PrtScn alone make a screenshot stored in Saved Games/DCS/screenshots (or sth like that) folder.

unfortunately this didnt carry over to the PG maps. I am looking to start some proper diagrams, but the way the engine renders now makes it significantly harder to pull a diagram together.

Maybe this can help:

Helps slightly but missing the other 14 maps from the region. Have been thinking to start them but struggling with the way the engine outputs F-10 now.

THeyre the only ones I can find too, that set is missing Liwa and Ras Al.

Yes!

I didn't realize just how spoiled I was by the Progressive Taxi in Flight Simulator X until I got this game. Even if the ATC gave directions (ie. Taxi to runway 27L using Taxiways Alpha, Alpha 2 & Bravo) that would be a huge plus. Airport charts are really helpful though, thanks. :pilotfly:

There is a project called OverlordBot in the mod section to create this type of functionality, its much needed from an immersion standpoint

The 476 vFG offers a couple of plates for public download, unfortunately UAE/OMAN is not complete but anyways....

At least Georgie and Russia is what you are looking for

Thx for the link Rudel!

 

Into which path do I have to copy the kneeboard files, if I want to have them available only at the Persian Gulf but on all planes?

 

Edit:

"%HOMEPATH%\Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard\PersianGulf" and

"%HOMEPATH%\Saved Games\DCS\Mods\terrains\PersianGulf\Kneeboard" don't work

I don't wanna corrupt the native DCS installation path.
