Reduce G Forces, Is it possible? (Read 367 times)

Is there any way to reduce the amount of g forces felt by an aircraft in a turn? I love flying my Mig-29 but it keeps hitting 20gs in a hard turn, even at low speeds. I'm just wondering if there is some way to reduce g forces via an edit of the aircraft.cfg or .mdl.

Welcome to Simviation Forums

that would be in the FSX.CFG located it here

Quote:

Location of the fsx.cfg:

Windows XP : C:\Documents and Settings\[Your Username]\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX

Windows Vista : C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX

Note:

"Hidden files and folders" have to be disabled in order to see this file.

To do so:
Control Panel -> Folder Options -> View Tab -> Scroll down and put a bullet in "Show hidden files and folders" -> Click "Apply"

and must be this one (in red) ,but first made a back up of the entire FSX.CFG folder "just in case"

it opens with notepad, find this lines

[REALISM]
PFactor=1.000000
Torque=1.000000
GyroEffect=1.000000
CrashTolerance=1.000000
General=1.000000
UnlimitedFuel=False
TrueAirspeed=False
AutoCoord=False
RealMixture=True
StressDamage=True

GEffect=True

set it to "false"

ManualLights=True
GyroDrift=False
CrashWithDyn=True
CrashDetection=True
AutoTrim=False
AllowEngineDamage=True

Alex, I believe all that will do is turn off the G effects. Which can be done within the settings page in FSX. So there's no reason to open the CFG file.

The only way to reduce Geffects is turn off the Aircraft stress causes damage checkbox in FSX settings, or to fly smoother, wider turns.

Err... Don't pull on the stick so hard!

Seriously though, there is a direct relationship between the angle of back (AoB) and the amount of g you have to pull to maintain level flight, which applies to all aircraft. Off the top of my head for a level turn at 60 degrees AoB you have to maintain 2g.
