Adding picture to kneeboard datacard
-
okay, i was able to add the pics i want but when it saved it it was bigger. and when it updated it only showed vertically half of each page. is there a sizing that i need. it would be useful if somebody might be able to do a quick video on this so that we can all make our own boards…
-
anybody?

Hi Justice,
What program do you use for opening and editting your .dds file? Photoshop?
What program/plugin do you use for saving to .dds?Creating your own kneeboard isn’t anything different from the process we call “skinning” and involves multiple steps to do right.
If you’ve got anything funky in the vertical, i’d guess you might be doing something wrong in Photoshop…

paint.net was recommended to me
-
so what did i do wrong?
-
i’d need a screen shot of the dds in paint.net as you were editing it before you saved it (also, make a backup somewhere you can drop back into the objects folder)
-
ill work on it…maybe ill try a video for ya to see what im doin

-
paint only gave me option to open jpeg image i think

You could use the Kneeboard Updater (….) much anything.
Cheers,
EggsOk, All works well. But how does one change the Kneeboard page in another Theatre? I installed the kneeboard mob in the new theatre, using the Korea.HDR of that specific theatre. Opening the mission in WDP, and then using Kneeboard updater does not result in the new kneeboard. Also, when I have two pictures scaled correctly and I want to get it on the kneeboard, it works in Korea, but not in for instance Balkans/Sinai.
So if anyone can shed some light on it, please do!
