Required CFG entry for Mesh 5m?

Featured Replies

I've got three custom cfg's and I want them all to render 5m terrain mesh. I've got it set to 10m now and the required value is apparently 22.[TERRAIN]LOD_RADIUS=6.500000MESH_COMPLEXITY=100MESH_RESOLUTION=22Does anyone know what will set 5m?

Lol I just wanted to suggest you try higher number. Old trick from fs9...Glad you sorted it out!

What a great find, Ryan! This needs to be another Sticky in Tips n Tricks!

Why? One can set it in "Settings".

Really? I think you missed the point, GHD.How does one find out that M. Res of "5m" is equal to "23" without first running FSX -->Settings, then opening up the fsx.cfgn to see what it translates to? How does one do the same thing with Tex..Res.? This is a well-thought-out chart, with excellent diagrams, one I've never seen in almost thirty years of simming.

The reason this was important to me was because anytime I change the sliders in FSX my cfg's become rewritten...So I created separate configs for certain areas (lower settings in Orbx land for example). The simplest way to change the mesh from 10m to 5m was to find that number.

Sure! Neat, quick, and a handy reference to have in case anyone else "needs to know". Thanks again, Ryan - you're not just a pretty face.. although I did hear one guy say ..... :( :(
