Does CFS2 Load Entirely to Hard Disc or does CD ROM Disc2 Have to Stay in Drive?

[Cuttles]

Have CFS2 loaded, but it keeps asking for Disc 2 when each new fly is loaded. Is this normal? I would have expected game to load entirely to Hard Disc.

Just loaded CFS2 for the first time. Not sure how to approach this. Thinking of just re-loading: it's on a separate disc drive from C:. Any clues/Help anyone, please??:engel016:

Disc 2 has to stay in your CD drive when you're running the sim. Over the years there have been some "no-CD" cracks available elsewhere on the internet but here at SOH we don't have them, nor do we recommend them or discuss their use.

Ok Thanks for the reply: sounds like any attempt togo down this path results in probelems, damage or is very impractical. Any comment on post above about movie/intro?

Well, none of that is true, just so you don't get the wrong ideas about destroying your game or something. The fact is that it is a violation of Microsoft's license agreement to mess with their code which a no CD crack does. We respect their rules and expect members to do the same. That includes discussions on the topic. Not allowed, but you should know why.

Icutler: With an addon called Zoneaid, http://www.thecfs2flightdeck.com/utilitiestools.htm , you can turn off the opening video/intro. You can also add an autopilot to any aircraft that doesn't already have one and make AI flyable as well as other features.

If my memory don´t fails open your cfs2.CFG file with notepad (ALWAYS BACK UP FIRTS). This file is in your CFS2 root directory. Scroll down to LOADSIM= and change 1 to 0. Save and exit.

Discus, I'm not sure what that does, but it might not be good :icon_lol:

To stop the movies

Open the CFS2.cfg file (in the root folder of the game) with Notepad
1. Change 'ShowLogo=1' to 'ShowLogo=0' stops the intro movie

2. Change 'ShowMovie=1' to 'ShowMovie=0' stops the in campaign movies of the 2 stock campaigns

Close Notepad, answer yes when it asks if you want to save.
