Adjusting the Coordinate Display

Postby Skittles » Sat Apr 03, 2004 2:39 pm

Hello,

   Does anyone know how the coordinate display of SHIFT-Z can be changed to display fractal seconds?

   For example...

               N12* 34.56' W012* 34.56' is what I have

               N12* 34' 56.78" W012* 34' 56.78" is what I want.

Thanks,

Joe

The only way I can think of changing it is actually changing the line of code in the game itself...I dunno.. ???

Anybody else know?

   Also, I can't remember, and can't find the file about how to add average FPS on the display.

To do this, open up your FS9.cfg file and find the section headed "[MAIN]".

Replace what you have with this:

[MAIN]
Location=316,222,964,756
HideMenuNormal=0
HideMenuFullscreen=1
Maximized=1
Ave_Frame_Rate_Display=1

Ric,

WOW..... where is adding that line documented?

So I did that and I have a new series of numbers displayed.
