QW 787-10
« on: November 02, 2019, 02:50:10 am »
I`m trying to figure out why the tug always seems to connect in the wrong area(see pic) in the P3dv4.5 simobjects airplanes folder under 787-10 i see a gsx cfg, i also see in Virtuali folder in Appdata roaming airplanes there is also a gsx cfg file, so which one will gsx read when i call for push back? the 787-10 gsx cfg i`m using was from the users share area here on the forums.

In any case, for future reference, GSX will read the aircraft configuration from all these sources, in order of priority:

1) If there's no configuration data at all, it will read from Simconnect and the aircraft.cfg. This is not ideal, since doors positions won't be very accurate, but it's a start to create a custom config.

2) If there's an old intelliscene.cfg file made for AES by the airplane developers, it be will be used by preference over #1

3) If the airplane is internally supported by GSX, the internal configuration will be used by preference over #2

4) If the airplane comes with a GSX.CFG file, in its own folder ( the one that contains the aircraft.cfg file too ), which is usually supplied by the airplane developer, it be will be used by preference over #3

5) If the airplane has a GSX.CFG file in %APPDATA%\GSX\Airplanes, which is usually created when you edit the airplane with the GSX airplane configuration page, it be will be used by preference over #4

The GSX airplane configuration page will indicate from which source GSX is reading its data from.
