ok - to each his own but I'm missing something obvious here - :)what's the difference between making the edit each time you make a change and loading a saved cfg file eachtime you make a change. Seems like six of one and a half dozen of another.Actually it appears to be more time consuming.You make an in game change and the LOD gets reset. Now what? if you load the saved cfg then the LOD will be correct but the change you just made will be lost. If you save the cfg as current - you still have to edit the LOD in the saved cfg and load it.As I said - I must be missing something here. :)I use a little program called FSXCFGedit - one click opens the cfg - make edit - close.Vic

You are be missing something.With this method one can change LOD and TML without closing FSX. The biggest benefit when doing videos half-speed, in replay, I can change my framerate to lower, without compromising LOD and TML. Otherwise, if I'd go to the display menu, and changed my FPS, if my LOD or TML were higher, they would default to highest default, which is 4.5/1024.

AH - ok I see what you mean. I wasn't considering in flight changes! Makes much more sense now. :( Vic
