How to remove the road and rail traffic from X-Plane 11

Featured Replies

Hello,

I'd like to remove the road and rail traffic from X-Plane 11 as it is not realistic for my area, can this be done easily whilst retaining houses, trees etc please?

You want to tweak your "settings.txt" file in the Resources folder. Look for:

#Set Car Density
SETTING_1 renopt_draw_3d_04 0 reno/draw_cars_05 0
SETTING_1 renopt_draw_3d_04 1 reno/draw_cars_05 0
SETTING_1 renopt_draw_3d_04 2 reno/draw_cars_05 1
SETTING_1 renopt_draw_3d_04 3 reno/draw_cars_05 1
SETTING_1 renopt_draw_3d_04 4 reno/draw_cars_05 2

and I think you can change all lines to end with ...cars_05 0

That way the car density (and I think the trains as well) will be set to 0 for all rendering detail levels.

Cheers, Jan

 

My dream is to reduce train traffic and not change cars. Impracticable. 😉

Beyond my technical expertise and certainly impracticable, but not impossible. A crude hack would be to exchange the train objects for "empty" or invisible objects. Not sure if this would work...

Hi Jan, you answer worked perfectly for me, altering the cars also removed the trains and so I'm very pleased.

Jan thanks so much.
