    Hey all,

    So I have been watching Avon's Videos to get more of my board working. Learning ALOT (thank you Avon for having those) So I have a question about nightly maint.ini

    So in the [MergeNodeLists] section and from the video he said to use

    Nodelist=c:\mystic\files\fsx_node\fsxnet

    The examples in the stock version of mutil has

    nodefile=d:\nodelists\nodelist

    So do I go with nodefile=c:\mystic\files\fsx_node\fsxnet or

    c:\nodelists\nodelist (or some other path? IE does the node list live outside of the mystic directory or probably not. Just curious.

    Newb here trying to make things work.

    Thanks in advance for any and all replies.

    If your file area for fsxNet nodelists (FSX_NODE) is in c:\mystic\files\fsx_node, it might be a good idea to set:

    nodefile=c:\mystic\files\fsx_node\FSXNET

    It will then auto-discover all nodelists (even zipped ones, which they
    usually are) named FSXNET.nnn or FSXNET.Znn in the fsx_node directory.

    You *can* point nodefile to some other directory, but if you point it to
    where the nodelists are placed, you don't have to copy them somewhere else manually for Mystic to pick them up.

    Best regards
