Gabe777 7 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Hi, Considering purchasing this software. One thing that appears to be missing is the ability to have different versions of the terrain.cfg file, at least in FSX. FTX makes a lot of changes to it and if I want to run GenX photoscenery for example, I need to copy across a set of 3 files to their respective folders, or things are a total mess. FSX.cfg Scenery.cfg Terrain.cfg These 3 are always grouped together for me. Could this addition be added to your program ? Thnx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted January 22, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 22, 2018 What about adding a small batch file to the run set of your profile, which just copies these files before starting the sim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Use differently named RunConfigSet's and use the file operations available there ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would cause more complexitiy to most of the users. But it already supports "AutogenConfigMerger" if you are familiar with that. If not I would follow the advice of Stephen to work with a "Filecopy" within the "Run ConfigSet" of SIMstarter NG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe777 7 Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 Ok, I didn't know there was a configurable copy file function. Sounds like like that would do the job. Thnx ! Its not often I need to do it anyway as I only rarely use photoscenery.... so it was just a thought. But, it is interesting, as many texture terrain issues are caused exactly by this problem. If you disable FTX scenery, manually, it can cause major issues as the terrain.cfg file has a massive amount of amendments made by OrbX, which can cause problems depending on your other scenery.
