Question Concerning FS Force with FSX and Different Drives

Post by MSW » Sat Aug 29, 2009 3:19 am

My XP operating system is located on C Drive. My FSX is located on D Drive. I have FS Force installed and everything works great. What I want to do is put all of my FSX Simobjects/Airplanes over to E Drive so that I open up more capacity on my D Drive which contains FSX.

Is there a way to make FSForce still work properly by doing this?

Please help.

Thanks!

Mike

I assume you were going to move the files to your E: drive and then modify the SimObjectPaths.x entries in FSX.CFG?

If so, it looks like that will create some issues with my program. It expects the SimObject folder to be in the FSX path. Let me know your specific plans before I decide how to deal with this.

Ok, it shouldn't be too much of a change to my program. I'll probably have an update early next week.

FS Force 2.11 is available for download. It should pick up the correct path to the SimObjects folder from FSX.CFG. Let me know if there are problems.

Once again thanks for your great support.

I installed the new version and it correctly located the aircraft files within E drive and installed the trim gauges. All aircraft are shown in the profile list. So it looks like it works great.

Thanks! :) :) :)
