July 14, 200718 yr Hi,Every time something has changed in the scenery.cfg, FS2004 is rebuilding certain index file(s). Does anyone knows what the file names are?Reason for this question:When flying GA-VFR, I have different scenery installed/loaded then flying IFR. I want to create a few scenery.cfg and load them via a batch file.Nevertheless everytime when I'm changing the scenery.cfg file, FS2004 has to rebuild indexes. Hence I would like to include the index files as well in the batch file.

July 14, 200718 yr Thanks!I also considered to replace only the scenery.cfg, but the differences in the scenery.cfg's are quite large, so the indexing process takes a substantial amount of time.

July 14, 200718 yr In case it might be useful to you - I used Microsoft's Filemon program (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/FileAndDisk/Filemon.mspx) to monitor which files were rewritten when FS9 loads.
