Hi Guys I have 2 questions and I need your help:(1) Whenever, I delete and rebuild my FSX CFG file, all of my a/c traffic "My Traffic" disappears...there are no a/c on the ground nor on the air, why? How do I stop this in the event I need to adjust my cfg files again? (Besides reinstalling "My Trafiic")(2) No water movement...I know this has been discussed alot by ******* Altuve; however, after I installed and uninstalled his shader 3.0, now there is no water movement. Ibelieve I personally mess-up as well, as I was tweaking the "Waterconstant XML" I believe I deleted and added the incorrect "XML" file. And, since it has been edited the file got saved as a "notepad" file. Could someone provide me with the correct "Waterconstant XML" files. Isue REX for my texures.

1. Because your cfg file has a pointer to the folder where your My Traffic planes are located.

The added "MyTraffic" pointer:-[Main]User Objects=Airplane, HelicopterSimObjectPaths.0=SimObjectsAirplanesSimObjectPaths.1=SimObjectsRotorcraftSimObjectPaths.2=SimObjectsGroundVehiclesSimObjectPaths.3=SimObjectsBoatsSimObjectPaths.4=SimObjectsAnimalsSimObjectPaths.5=SimObjectsMiscSimObjectPaths.6=MyTrafficAircraftThe

put this on in it's place. Once that's done - delete the C:Users (your username here) AppDataLocalMicrosoftFSXShaders folder and then start FSX.
