BMS 4.35 KNEEBOARD Charts
-
Hey guys i downloaded the kneeboard pictures for Korean, BMS and some other things. Mainly for airport chart images to load to kneeboard. Where do I download info to in BMS? help needed.

@asw200
Using WDP (https://www.weapondeliveryplanner.nl/download/index.html) is the bes way to brefing the flight and manage the kneeboard. -
Just for information - the (Korean) kneeboard images are located in:
Falcon BMS 4.35 > Data > TerrData > Objects > KoreaObjIt’s the files from “7982.dds” to “7997.dds”.
In case you wanted to edit or exchange them (via WeaponDeliveryPlanner), you might want to backup the originals first.

.That are .dds updated files (thanks for file numbers…), basically what you see once seated in the cockpit. If you want to change 'em up, you must use WDP were you can add pictures your own (airport charts, threats, radio ch. and freq, wheater maps, ingress/egress maps…). The reference directory are located in …weapon_delivery_planner_3.7.18-180/picture or Map. Personally, during a campaign I use to create a directory for every mission where store all pics related for that .

@coral36 I have to explain further. When I look in bms folder I see Balkans MAIP, But when I use WDP to change kneeboard the file is not present in browse pictures.

That is a .pdf file. You must create your own .gif files (850x1181 px) from that -

I use PDF Xchange viewer (is a free one), select the page you need and export as image. Than, you can open it with graphic prog ( i.e IrfranView64 free licence as well…), and change resolution to 850x1181 px.

The last time I checked, the aitport maps in WDP are not as up to date as the KTO ones - 4.35 changed many of the airport layouts etc. It also uses a different naming convention and extention.
I converted all my KTO files for use in WDP, but like I said, I haven’t checked if this still the case, just thought I’d post a heads up.
I had posted a Zip of the files in the WDP thread if you are interested.
Here’s the discussion
