Kneebord for each single module...help!

[Predator-78]

Hi all, has any of you ever edited a mission with more than one flight package, with different planes and inserting the respective kneeboards in the .miz file?

I followed some instructions on the web, opened the .miz file with 7-Zip and created the KNEEBOARD folder inside. Inside the latter I have inserted another folder called IMAGES. By doing this I don't have the subdivisions between the kneeboards inserted between one plane and another.

On another site instead I had read that inside the KNEEBOARD folder I had to insert the precise name of the module I want to use, for example F-16C_50 and then inside the latter put the IMAGES folder with all the graphic files of the kneeboard.

Unfortunately I open the mission in single and multiplayer and I don't see the legpads. Can anyone help me?

Create inside the miz file the following directories (I use WinRAR for this, but probably the free 7-zip can do it also):

 KNEEBOARD\IMAGES
 KNEEBOARD\FA-18C_hornet\IMAGES
 KNEEBOARD\F-16C_50\IMAGES

The image files on KNEEBOARD\IMAGES can be seen in both planes. The KNEEBOARD\F-16C_50\IMAGES can be seen only on the F-16.  The ones at KNEEBOARD\FA-18C_hornet\IMAGES can be seen only on Hornets.

Be careful with the upper and lower case, as the aircraft names are case-sensitive.

Thanks for your reply first of all.

I followed the instructions but can't see them. In sequence, I'm posting here three screenshots of the steps I've done

Lets try with an example ... try the attached mission. There are three aircrafts: a Hornet, an F16, and a TF-51 .. all three should show the image that is at /KNEEBOARD/IMAGES, like this:

 

 

In addition, the Hornet should be able to show the page that is at KNEEBOARD\FA-18C_hornet\IMAGES  like this:

 

 

and finally, only the F-16 should display the page at KNEEBOARD\F-16C_50\IMAGES

 

 

Please be aware that the kneeboard is limited to 256 pages, and I suggest to use JPG rather than PNG to save space on the mission.

Best regards,
