shu77 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 It may be worth trying if it works as a JPG.

docWilly Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Gents....as I am not a crack importing kneeboard additions I decided to use kneeboardbuilder for DCS (free). Right now after 10 min reading the manual while installing the neat little program I was able to import Shu´s pdf, create a custom kneeboard together with the aircraft specific one and ALL showed up ingame as intended. And it works as well with the other files (for VR users) Conclusion: nothing wrong with his charts....just use kneeboardbuilder and RTFM.

shu77 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I suspect the issue is that Kneeboards are not implemented yet for the map, but if you add them to an Aircraft it will work. My understanding is DCS uses the Aircraft Kneeboards then the theatre then the Mission or vice versa. We've used the same file type/export process happily for missions on PG and Syria for Multiplayer so I dont believe its the file format.

docWilly Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 @SMN Maybe I do not get your issue..... with kneeboardbuilder I can easily implement "default kneeboard" (i.e. what ED puts in there or for example the specific checklists of an aircraft or whatever a multiplayer server host provides for the session) TOGETHER with my "custom kneeboard" (here Shu´s Syria charts) displayed ingame on my kneeboard while sitting in the F18C for example. Shu´s stuff shows right after the default stuff... so no prob for me. I do not see Caucasus airfield charts while flying Syria.

I think that it may not be implemented. You may have to use the individual aircraft Kneeboard folder in Saved games for now.

I think this is because youre adding the kneeboards to an aircraft rather than the map. I think there may have been an issue with the capitalisation of .PNG on my first set of files but that should be corrected now, so you should just be able to drop the .png files into the same location and they will work Hornet, Super Carrier, Warthog & (II), Mustang, Spitfire, Albatross, Sabre, Combined Arms, FC3, Nevada, Gulf, Normandy, Syria AH-6J i9 10900K @ 5.0GHz, Gigabyte Z490 Vision G, Cooler Master ML120L, Gigabyte RTX3080 OC Gaming 10Gb, 64GB RAM, Reverb G2 @ 2480x2428, TM Warthog, Saitek pedals & throttle, DIY collective, TrackIR4, Cougar MFDs, vx3276-2k Combat Wombat's Airfield & Enroute Maps and Planning Tools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudel_chw Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 ... Conclusion: nothing wrong with his charts....just use kneeboardbuilder and RTFM. KB is a great tool, but it can only do three things: 1) Add KB special pages to DCS default kneeboard (the one that shows maps with your position on it). 2) Add KB pages to individual aircraft's kneeboards. 3) Add KB pages to individual Missions. Unfortunately, it can't add KB pages to individual Maps, also it can't replace any of DCS included kneeboards (default or aircraft's kneeboards). Here we are clearly in front of a bug of the new Syria Map, and hopefully this thread will be acknowledged by the developers soon.

Rudel_chw Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I've added KBs into my missions for Syria without any issues. The Kneeboard content comes from several sources .. I'd love for ED to implement a tabbed interface for the kneeboard, that way the origin of the KB content would be much clearer: - Pages from DCS default kneeboard (usually a Map of the mission path). - Pages from the Aircraft Module's Kneeboard (not every Modele has it= - Pages from the Map Kneeboard (usually airfields charts, currently only Caucasus and Nevada have them, but users can add them to the other Maps (except Syria)) - Pages from the user's Saved Games kneeboard (separated by aircraft) - Pages from the .MIZ file that we are currently flying. :thumbup: For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600X - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia GTX1070ti - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar - Oculus Rift CV1 Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
