Pete,
In relation to the following section of the Advanced Users Manual:
QUOTE:
Different FSUIPC.ini files can be used for differing FS requirements, even loading from the same FS2000/2002 installation. This involves using multiple FS2000.CFG, FS2002.CFG or FS9.CFG files with different filenames, with the following section added in each one:
[FSUIPC]
ControlName=
Then you load FS for each configuration with the command line parameter specifying the CFG file, thus, for FS2000 for example:
FS2000.exe /CFG:.CFG
And this will allow FSUIPC to identify its correct .INI file, .ini.
IMPORTANT: For FS9 CFG files, please put your alternative CFG files into the main FS9 folder, not the “Documents and Settings” place where the default FS9.CFG goes. If you put it where it seems logical, FS9 will not see it and will create a new default CFG file with the name you specified, placing it in the default FS9 folder!
UNQUOTE
When you refer to CONTROL name, are you talking abou the FSUIPC.INI name, eg myalt1.ini?
Where is this [FSUIPC] section to be found?
Also, I have created and put the cfg files in the documents subdirectory structure, and FS did not create/put the files into the FS9 main folder. As it happens, it does find them where they are, but I need to specify the full path. It would not find them if I put them into the main FS9 folder unless I also gave the full path. Did you try the above or has behaviour changed since FS patches?
Cheers
