• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I'm am more paranoid about losing scenery and airplanes than config settings, but ...

in the fsx.cfg I keep all my addon in aircraft in (see 6)
[Main]
User Objects=Airplane, Helicopter
SimObjectPaths.0=SimObjects\Airplanes
SimObjectPaths.1=SimObjects\Rotorcraft
SimObjectPaths.2=SimObjects\GroundVehicles
SimObjectPaths.3=SimObjects\Boats
SimObjectPaths.4=SimObjects\Animals
SimObjectPaths.5=SimObjects\Misc
;tweak
;SimObjectPaths.6=aircraft
SimObjectPaths.6=e:\x\fsx\aircraft

Creating SimObjectPaths.6=aircraft will allow FS9 installers to put aircraft in (I don't use it for this - FSX only in FSX for me) to show, I put FSX addons only there).
I have another drive where I keep my FSX backup (E:). What goes into c: I copy into E: if I like it.
Monkeying about, I see a framerate increase if I change some airplanes &/or scenery to my backup FSX folder.
If you change all to the backup you get about the same results as you had. I change some of the larger basic scenery config entries to point to my backup and get faster load times. Worth exploring, you'll have to experiment what's best for you and your setup.
