After a lot of guessing, I discovered that the kneeboard folder for custom kneeboards is "MiG-29 Fulcrum", e.g.:

C:\Users\<username>\Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard\MiG-29 Fulcrum

I tried MiG-29-Fulcrum, MiG-29_Fulcrum, MiG-29, MiG_29, MiG29A, MiG-29-9.12, Mig-29_9.12, MiG-29-9.12A, and several others before I found that exactly one other kneeboard folder contains a space (the F-86F Sabre), and tried it, and that worked.  Phew!

Weirdly it's not working for me. I've got the folder with that name and a couple of jpgs in it, but they don't show.

OpenKneeboard is showing the files, so feels like it should be working, but the inbuilt kneeboard isn't.

check the folder name capitalization, and use .png format instead of jpg

Thanks - does the inbuilt kneeboard not handle jpg then?

I'm sure the folder name is right, unless I've gone nuts 🙂

I've got a mixture of .jpg and .png files in Saved games\DCS\Kneeboard\MiG-29 Fulcrum folder. Works fine, no issues.

.jpg works, .jpeg does not.
