FSX-MS Understanding [cameradefinition.XXX]

[alihor 0]

I am struggling with my camera configurations in FSX  "aircraft.cfg" and I have a simple question:

What is the difference between [cameradefinition.1] and cameradefinition.001] ?

I am reading in the SDK these different indexes.

Thanks

Hi,

AFAIK they aren't numerical indices, but they are read as strings (so they are numerically identical but in fact different). Still, you should make sure to keep the camera definitions numerically consistent (= no duplicates). So to be on the safe side, treat them as equal.

The more important bits are the GUID - that is the "fingerprint" of the camera definition and must be unique - and the "title" to properly identify the camera in the GUI. 

Best regards
