AutoKneePads for Falcon BMS

@linknet
As you work to sort it out, note that my current theater in BMS is NOT KTO, but that your amazing tool pulls the briefing (as it shows in my current non-KTO theater) anyway and saves the pages properly as .png files, which is exactly what I need, and which makes your app work with ANY theater (albeit without saving the .png file as 7982.dds).If you “fix” it, unless your app directs the 7982.dds save to the current theater’s …terrdata\Objects\KoreaObject folder, it will save to KTO’s …terrdata\Objects\KoreaObject folder instead, and will not show up in game for the currently selected theater.

(VoiceClone)It already saves it to the current theatre’s dds file when it works.
Local $sAddonPath = "" If Not ($sCurrentTheater = "Korea KTO" Or $sCurrentTheater = "Korea TvT") Then $sAddonPath = "Add-On " & $sCurrentTheater & "\" EndIf $sKneePadsTargetPath = $sFalconBMSPath & $sAddonPath & $sDataPath

Yes, thanks, that is a help.
It means that it has correctly located the 7982.dds folder and created a backup file.
So it means one of two things:- The 7982.dds file is locked or read only.
- The source file KneePads.dds which should have been created in the AutoKneePads\KneePads folder actually hasn’t been created.
I think No. 2 is more likely, could you check for the existence of KneePads.dds in the AutoKneePads\KneePads folder.
@linknet, yes, it’s No.2 as you thought. I see only png files in the folder, no dds files.

Hello. Me again. Sorry
Could you put back online the version 1.02 : the version 1.03 doesn’t want to work here : no creation of Kneepad. dds ?

@Rouge1512 No problem, I’ve sent you a PM to see if we can resolve this.

@linknet Is there a way to get the charts into this? I’m referring to the airport and approach charts that we have in the Helios profile that you get to by clicking on the RWR, then choosing which airbase to display.

Interesting idea, how would you select which airbase charts to display? Also the charts would all need to be resized to 1024x2048 from the current 850x1181 or 2904x4455 which means you’d have an awful lot of white space at the top and bottom.
You could use WDP Update Kneeboards to add the charts to all of the kneeboards pages but you’d still need to resize them all first.
