Multiple cockpit instruments missing details

[Lukas2438]

Hello guys,

some instruments in the Huey cockpit don't look like they should. Perhaps a major (graphics) update in the past was responsible for this.
I have created a comparison between DCS and the manual, should be easy to understand what the issues are.

 

Greetings Lukas

The problem has existed for a long time ...

 

I used the files from a previous functional version ...

Where do these two files have to go?

EXAMPLE GAME install on E:\ Drive

E:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\Uh-1H\Cockpit\Textures\UH-1H-CPT-TEXTURES.zip

Both files would replace the original files in this zip. Backup the Zip file BEFORE the new files are copied into it. If you would have any issue put the original zip back.

Looks great!  Thanks!!!

I had a total problem. The cockpit was a single texture, without the correct view of the instruments so I put the original back on.
The installation was, of the two original replacement files, by manual without any possibility of error.Hi.

Just now tested:
1- Extract the 2 files from the above archive
2- Integration of the 2 files in the archive : Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\Uh-1H\Cockpit\Textures\UH-1H-CPT-TEXTURES.zip

No problem...

Does it break IC?

Just to make sure, I'll make it OvGME compatible

Edited to add: lucky for me, I already have Huey Kentucky windage gunsight mod. Just had to drop those two files in

What/where is this Kentucky windage gunsight mod you speak of?

Did you do anything special when making the archive? I just made one, but it fails to be deployed.

Not sure what is the difference, but if you just create zip archive it won't work. Use OvGME to create archive

Ok, thanks. Must test a little the. I used Open Mod Manager.

Don't use open mod manager so have no idea what options there are for you, if you want I can just send the archive to you

Thanks!
But it did work manually. Both adding the files to the zip, and then overwriting the original.
In case you don't know, Open Mod Manager is the successor to OvGME, and also coded by Sedenion. But this time the code is on Github, so I might report it there, in case I found a bug.

It's so awesome when people come up with fixes and mods like this, as it adds so much. But What was that Kentucky thingy you mentioned?

Don't mess with the install folder, just use your profile! I have several cockpit mods installed that way and choose one of them inside special options. Mainly I use a no mipmap mod or vivid color (civilian) and with it I have the the red mark at 125 knt. I think these mods are based on (livery template) versions from years ago – but still working.

Like install in the Saved Games folder and not in the core?

Personally, I use OvGME to insert the mods files in the base directory.

I use OvGME for everything. That way I don't have to chase where I have put what

Correct. It's a lot easier, you don't have to fight Windows' user rights or ED's integrity checks.
