L39ZA forward cockpit v1.0 and v1.0b - English and Russian cockpit !
Here we come, with another Helios profile! This time for the L-39ZA.
I made the profile using the A10C interface in Helios. With that, we dont need to prepare different versions for differents countries, we dont need the default.lua to define all the keyboard commads, because i redirect directly to DCS from helios, so we dont need to worry abous future changes. And of course, for the final user, (you), is a more easy installation ! So here you got a fully input/output L-39ZA profile.
Hope you like it !
For this profile i exported all the instruments, lamps, selectors, switches and levers in the Forward cockpit. Soon the future i'll preprare a Rear cockpit one too.
Of course i added the navigation panel from others profiles, so you can check airport charts, tactical maps, ndbs, etc
The profile can be changed from English Cockpit to Russian cockpit, replacing the graphics from the ones in the required folder. By default, the profile is in english.
- Profile files:
L39ZA_v1.0.hpf .....................16:10 monitor resolutions
L39ZA_v1.0b.hpf .....................16:9 monitor resolutions
- Graphics files:
The profile can be changed from English Cockpit to Russian cockpit, replacing the graphics from the ones in the required folder. By default, the profile is in english.
The folder names inside images/L39 are, "english cockpit" and "russian cockpit". Just copy all the files inside the folder you want and paste to images/L39

This file is a modified version of the Loophole Updated version from 09/11/2014, ( http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=97222 )
- Monitor aspect resolutions:
I made two different profiles, v1.0 for 16:10 monitors and v1.0b for 16:9 monitors. Use the one better fit width you monitor resolution.
- Thanks:
I made the entire graphic art, based on screenshots of the simulator, and the textures folder of the game.
I used the airport charts from http://www.virtual-jabog32.de and the tactical chart TC-1 created by =MAF=Mongoose and the NDBs list created by Lino_Germany.
For the export.lua i used the Loophole version, compatible width KA50, A10c and FC3 as a base for all my implementations.
In the export.lua i include a couple of functions by [FSF]Ian to export the digits of the UV26 for the MI-8
I want to thanks aswell to all the people who help me, in the DCS forum, every time i reached a deadlock, somewhere!
And of course to Gadroc for creating Helios, this great software.

INSTALLATION
--Install Helios if you don't have it yet. (http://www.gadrocsworkshop.com/helios/latest)
-Copy the profile you need, for your resolution , on the profiles folder, usualy in user/my documents/helios/profiles
-Copy the folder Capt_Zeen on the images folder, usualy in user/my documents/helios/images
-Run the HeliosProfileEditor, load the profile L39ZA you want to use, and perform a Reset Monitors from the menu Profile.
-Save the profile
-Dont forget to use the correct export.lua i included in the package,
Copy it in C:\Users\yourusername\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts, but first make a backup copy of your actual export.lua.
-IF you use Tackview, Tarst or another external scripts, copy the corresponding lines from your old export.lua to the new one.
RUNNING THE PROFILE
-Open the Helios Control Center, select the profile and start it.
CONFIGURING THE SECOND MONITOR
This profile do not need any special actions for the second monitor.
KNOWN ISSUES
-Everyting looks correct right now, so no Known issues at the moment
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
If you use Helios and TARS or TACKVIEW you can have miss workings due to the way Helios works width the export.lua.
To prevent this, just move the lines for Tars or tackview to the very end of the export.lua in C:\Users\yourusername\Saved Games\DCS\Scripts.
