So I freed up 50 gigs of HD Space from DCS

[ElementLT]

noticed that my SSD was getting a bit filled up. While searching for things to delete I came across my Multiplayer Track folder - and what do ya know. 3000+ items using over 50 gigs of valuable space. If you've been flying for a while and hurting for hd space, do not forget this folder. :music_whistling:

Thanks for the pointer/reminder. I didn't even remember that was a thing. Just a quick scroll through it provides one with sudden memories of missions past...

Also remember you can stop trackfiles being written via autoexec.cfg

 

disable_write_track = true

Mustang where do I find this autoexec?

You can save the autoexec config file to X:\Users\[yourusername]\Saved Games\DCS\Config\

 

Here are a few options you can use as well

 

options.graphics.fullScreen = false
options.graphics.width = 1280
options.graphics.height = 768
options.graphics.maxfps = 20
options.graphics.render3D = false
if not net then net = {} end
net.download_speed = 431072000
net.upload_speed = 431072000
disable_write_track = true

 

You may have to edit the net.download_speed & net.upload_speed to match your internet connection. Im not really sure if this actually comes into play with the new dedicated server tool but I still set it anyway.
