Saving flights.

[Guest daveg4otu]

Having suffered from the "Crash to Desktop" problem caused by the railroad textures a few days ago,it occurred to me that some kind of automated "flight saving" might be a good idea.For those of us that are inclined(or addicted!)to trying out all sorts of addons(improvments?) there is always the risk that the program will crash - possibly at an inconvenient moment if you are flying online.I know you can save the flight manually at whatever moment you care to do so,and in the event of a software crash,pick it up again at your last saved point,but it would be very convenient if there was some way of scheduling automatic "saves" at a specified(by the user EG :every 15 minutes) interval.The "saves" can easily be deleted when the flight is completed.It is a bit demoralising to get 90% of the way thru a flight lasting maybe several hours-only to suffer a CTD or similar just before you get things finished.What does anyone else think about this ?Does anyone know of any software that can be used to do this- or perhaps someone out there can produce an application for this purpose?Dave

It works a treat Dave, I've used it for years. Just make sure the one in the library is the latest version (1.4.9.1) 15th September.It automatically saves the last 10 flights, one every minute, both parameters can be changed.

Yes - got it now- running just fine tho' I've reset the interval to 5 mins.Just what I neededThanks to all.Dave
