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.

In CFS2 all of the following files can be safely opened, edited and saved without losing any of their functionalities:
- *.cfg
- *.ini
- *.dp
- *.cmg
- *.mis
MS-Notepad is the best choice, because it doesn't add any text formatting info to the document it saves.
I had a nightmare a long time ago when I used the default Windows install MS-Write first and Winword afterwards to try curing the problem. I was working on an aircraft.cfg and the text editing resulted in a total disappearance of the plane from the FF menu.
Once I used Notepad to edit the simple changes I needed, everything went back to normal.
Even if we choose to save in simple text (*.txt) format with MS-Write and/or MS-Word, these applications add "something" to the file that CFS2 will not like.
MS-Notepad, with its almost unnatural simplicity in today's computer world, is the way to go.
Cheers!
