Was successful at figuring out Manual Cache-- or so I thought?

Not knowing anything about processes and SOP, I just hunted and pecked my way through caches until I accidentally turned on manual cache and got to the map with the blue squares hi med low.

I plotted and marked my squares. I had no idea if it saved, or if it worked; but I know I put them in there. It let me in once and only once. Now it’s greyed out. Yes, I checked the search bar, and read other people’s posts on the subject, but was still confused-- hence made my own post here.

If I saved it what file is it in? What folder is it in? Is it even in my computer or somewhere in the cloud hovering over Bill Gates’ house? I am truly clueless in every sense of the word.

This flight sim really needs more complete documentation. Forums where you ask each other questions, or use a one sentence search bar to glean information is a little difficult, given the nature of this complex new program.

People would be more knowledgeable with written documentation on how to do stuff the correct way from the get go. A downloadable .pdf manual at the very least would be a good start.

Hit it on youtube. There are numerous tutorials showing how to make use of manual cache and how to operate it.

manuel Cache works. but it’s not very simple and User friendly to select the Area from my point of view!

Ok, duly noted. But youtube is another “Hunt and peck until you find it” kind of entity.

In general social media bugs the heck out of me. YouTube’s great if you want to see a video of a little girl hugging a puppy, but when I need REAL answers to REAL issues, I want to hold a real manual in my hands and turn real pages.

My rant not withstanding, I thank you for the suggestion and I’ll watch the vids and hope i get lucky-/ and gleen what I need.

Pretty sure it doesn’t work, as it only saves photogrammetry data and nothing else.

The cache seems to be in the folder C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_blablabla\LocalCache

MANUALCACHE.CCC
ROLLINGCACHE.CCC

But I guess your point is more about lacking documentation than anything else :wink:
