May 5, 201214 yr Dear Flight Users, I have found a file called flight.cfg hidden in C:\Users\%user%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Flight. Does anybody know what these values mean and if modifying these values will do anything? I noticed parameters for A.I. including airplanes and road traffic. Any information could shine light on mysteries.

May 5, 201214 yr There's a little bit about graphics configuration options in this post: http://forum.avsim.n...n-options-help/ There's no place like this place, so this must be the place.

May 6, 201214 yr Be real curious if changing these values, (after enabling the custom settings switch via the post EastfCoastGuy mentioned) has an effect on the game now or in the future. Give it a try, I'd say. Well, don't, because I did give various options a try and nothing happened in Flight. A lot of entries are remainders of FSX or... placeholdes for things to come. I don't know. Nobody knows. Unfortunately.
May 6, 201214 yr Well I took the bait and modified these. [Traffic] AirlineDensity=0 GADensity=0 RoadDensity=0 ShipsAndFerriesDensity=0 BoatDensity=0 IFROnly=False AirportDensity=0 The first time I set them all to 3 and loaded the game. Results; No affect on any game content. I ended and looked at the config file and saw that they had all been set back to 0 so I set Custom=1 and reset all the values back to 3. Results; No affect on any game content. I ended and looked at the config file and saw that they had all stayed set to 3 so I tried setting them similar to FSX values and set them all 50 which is 50% in the FSX world. Results; No affect on any game content. The only conclusion I came to was that I can't fly the P40 while looking at it from the front or back. I managed to crash every time. :LMAO: I don't think they are just hold overs from FSX because they reset to 0 without the Custom=1 setting but I don't think they currently do anything and maybe never will.

May 6, 201214 yr Hi, the only thing I changed after so much time in Flight is actually the value of VisibleSetting from 0 to 1, to get rid of the yellow destination marker ... [PointOfInterestSystem] VisibleSetting=0 Cheers, Stephan i7 4790K @4,6Ghz (102x45), ASUS Maximus VII Hero, 16GB Corsair Venegance 1866, Corsair WC H100i, Gigabyte GTX 780 OC, 3x SSD (Win7, FSX, P3D), Dell UHD 27'", Saitek Homecockpit
