Hi Everybody,

Is there an easy way to remove all of the 1400 and 1401 entries from the apt.dat file or do I have to remove them manually? Would be nice if we had a checkbox to turn these on/off!

Thanks

The vehicles disappear between network computers, but more important for those that have weaker computers will see a big improvement in performance with the reduction of stutters while taxing and takeoff.

notepad++ find/replace:

Find what: ^1400.*\n

Replace with: <blank>

Search mode: regular expression

'Replace All' button

That worked out GREAT, took out both 1400 and 1401, I have to write this one down! Not only do I no longer see vehicles driving around and into each other and into buildings. They aren't around to disappear or morph into another vehicle between the network.

I'll just have to run this every XP12 update.

Added Benefit: Smoother performance while taxing and taking off/landing.

Thanks!
