P3D v3 fsuipc and "previous flight" autosave

[sisoffi]

Hi Pete,

very strange problem because in my p3d v3 i save my custom flight.

In the same menu i have an autosave "previous flight" indicate the same time and clock of last go-out prepar3d.

In the fsuipc settings no autosave or save mode is selected.

I deleted the previous flight files from dodcuments/p3d files

 

but when i start p3d my custom flight and go out the previous flight is automatically create.

 

Can you help me? sometimes this "previous flight" ovverride my custom save default flight cause conflicts to all systems.

 

thanks,

Simone

You are under a misapprehension. There is no way any saved flight can possibly override a default flight or any other flight you explicitly load. To use Previous Flight you would need to select it. Flights are never loaded automstically EXCEPT for the one you designate as default.

 

Previous Flight files used to  always be saved automatically by Flight Simulator, not by FSUIPC. When that facility stopped working (in one or other FSX update) I responded to requests from users to get FSUIPC to provide them instead. So it does, by default, to compensate for the fault in FS.

 

As documented in the FSUIPC Advanced User's guide, just change the INI file parameter "SavePreviousFlight" to No if you don't want this useful action.
