Aircraft cfg question:

Featured Replies

I always add a source statement in the 'description= ' line of the aircraft cfg when I add-on an aircraft or a re-paint. It helps me keep track of where I got the files; the author and helps me identify the precise folder if I have texture or panel problem.Since I've installed the 9.1 patch, I have noticed that on some aircraft, that entire description= statement is overwritten by the airfile contents and on others it is not. The syntax I use is identical from cfg to cfg and in all cases the cfg is not a 'read only' file.Does any one know what the discriminator is and how to disable it? If I add a custom description in the cfg, I want it to stay there.BobL

Not sure exactly where it should be placed in the cfg but I have seen the line editable=0 in some cfg files. I assume this means that the airfile would not overwrite anything in the cfg if this line is present but I'm not certain about this. Hope it might help anyway.

Thanks for that information Douglas.
