Mig-21bis green new cockpit


Olsiv

Recommended Posts

I am pretty sure that the NVA planes had unmodified russian cyrillic cockpits, since russian was the first foreign language taught at schools in the GDR and NVA pilots also took training courses in the USSR. External labels however where to varying degrees exchanged to roman alphabet german. Maybe the higher-ups didn't trust in the ground crews abilities to read russian/cyrillic.

 

 

I was born and raised in the former FRG, so I have never learned russian or the cyrillic alphabet. It is not the language that I find difficult to learn but the alphabet.

Just to make sure to exclude possible mistakes. Please take no offense if you do know this already.

 

 

Do you know where to change the cockpit livery in the options? It is under options/special/MiG-21bis/custom cockpit livery.

 

 

 

I am just asking because, I installed it the same way, you described it and it runs fine on my computer.

Thank you for the true russian cockpit colour,

it looks very realistic but I realized that from the outside view the colour shows original old one.

can you change it?

For me the difficulty isn't the alphabet but the difficult words that seems to be simmilar to nothing in eastern culture..

I have a green cockpit mod outside, but you won't be able to use it online.

To get English decals in the cockpit, use the following instructions:

-Paste file description.lua from here into the folder with my mod (with replacement)

-Follow to folder : ...:\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\MIG-21bis\Liveries\Mig-21_CP\English - Metric

-In this folder, copy the files (MiG21Bis_CP_T_1.dds, MiG21Bis_CP_T_2.dds, MiG21Bis_CP_T_3.dds, MiG21Bis_CP_T_4.dds, MiG21Bis_CP_T_5.dds).

-Paste these files into my mod folder (with replacement).

Congratulations, you have a partially English cockpit. The rest can be remembered.

After unpacking file BBC CCCP.rar, you should have only one BBC CCCP folder (by default it has one more subfolder BBC CCCP)

Make sure the file structure is as follows:

...\Liveries\Mig-21_CP\BBC CCCP\*.*

(extracted files inside a single BBC CCCP folder inside the Mig-21_CP folder)

What do you mean? What is the point that makes you think it is difficult to understand, be more specific

I took the liberty to also copy the MiG21Bis_CP_017.dds and MiG21Bis_CP_017_N.dds and rename them to MiG21Bis_CP_017.tga.dds and MiG21Bis_CP_017_N.tga.dds and replaced the existing ones to have english warning lights.

 

 

To my suprise it worked! :thumbup:
