Cockpit camera CFG changes and updates

Recommended Posts

I seek advice please....

I purchased the JU52 but was a bit unhappy with the default cockpit camera position so I amended the JU52 Cameras file to move the eyepoint forward a bit and slightly right to the centre of the pilot seat.  Now, when I press the view reset it takes me back to this altered position which suits me much better.  I'm aware that I could have done something similar with the custom cameras system but I prefer this method of altering the default position. 

My question is though, now that my JU52 has a slightly amended entry in the Cameras file, do you think I might get issues or hang-up problems when MSFS does (or tries to do) an update (e.g. the pending SU6 or a world update)???  And/or, might I get some issues if the JU52 tries to update via the Content Manager???

I've kept a record of the original X and Z values for the camera position so I can change the file back to the original values if necessary - but do you think I will need to do this before MSFS gets updated?

Thanks

Regards

John

They don't appear to do piece-meal updates. a Plane for instance - they replace the whole file or folder, not bits and pieces. So after updated files are received, its all new, the whole thing. Keep you records.
