The Camera Bookmarks Menu Rabbit hole.

Recommended Posts

There was a very useful tool that consisted of recording map views (mission running) which generated a .lua file.
The way to generate these bookmarks, which are still archived after the update, in:
X:\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config\View\Bookmarks\terrains
It was going to the map F10, find the position to save, press Ctrl F11, and then the letter "z".
This generated a dropdown menu, where you named the position to save.
To access that saved view, it was accessed in the same way and only double-clicked on the name of the saved position.

I have tried many combinations of letters to access the menu after the 2.8 update, without results.

I hope ED reads this, or if someone discovered the way to access it, indicate how to do it.

Thank you

Hi Plappie, I am using qwerty.
I think (hope) ED changed the key to access (as I mentioned "z", no longer works).

Cheers

Thank you very much, I had not seen that option, but it is not as useful as the one that existed before.
It had a dropdown menu that showed all the views recorded in a lua file that I could also share.

Thank you anyway

If go to your control settings and type in the keyword "book" it will show two things, "Camera bookmarks editor" and "Camera bookmarks menu bar"

As far as I can tell this is non functioning. However like 2 years ago I was able to make the menu appear so I swear that it was working at one point in time. But even when I did make it appear I could not interact with it.

Does anyone have any information on this and how use it. 

And yes I tried the keyboard combination listed, nothing happens.
