Quick question

Where in the world did I see a thread about changing the combat cfg file so that I could see the other players aircraft even if I didn't have it in my aircraft folder?
Gettin' old stinks,I can't remember nothing.:friday:
 
safn1949,

I believe what you're looking for is in the CFS2.cfg file. Open the file and scroll down to the [Multiplayer] section, and look for:

ALLOW_PLANE_MODEL_SEND=0
ALLOW_PLANE_MODEL_RECEIVE=0
ALLOW_TEXTURE_SEND=0
ALLOW_TEXTURE_RECEIVE=0

Change all the default 0 values to 1 to get send and receive of models/textures in multiplayer.
Your opponent will also have had to make the same change in his CFS2.cfg for it to work. When I was flying the CFS2 zone, I had not made the changes, as our squadron all used the same planes. I think I tried this with some online folks at one time, but I can't remember how well it actually worked [see, you're not the only "old school" with memory fades]. Be very very carefull when making any changes to your CFS2.cfg file, and always make a backup before proceeding.
