      Hi,

      Does anyone know if the Hobbs Meter can be changed in a config file? And where that might be? I'm trying to do a flight around the world in the Warrior, but I had to rebuild my computer from scratch the other day, and reinstall the Warrior, resetting the Hobbs. I'd like to set it back to where I had it before the computer crash, thanks.

        @katchaplin Those are saved in \Cache\SimObjects\JF_PA28_Warrior_II\state.CFG. I've never tried modifying it, but it should accomplish what you want.

              Hello!

              I have the same question but I cannot find any "state.cfg" file anywhere and no "Cache" folder either...

              I do not find anything close to that description:
              \Cache\SimObjects\JF_PA28_Warrior_II\state.CFG.

              Any other suggestion?

              Thank you!

                @greggy it's in your users folder, under \AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_PA28_Warrior_II. There are actually 2, but that's the one which affects the Hobbs Meter. I think the other may be an initial state on install.

                I edited my reply, the other path was to the one that doesn't affect the display.

                  @katchaplin Thank you, I found it !

                  It seems to be a Steam link:

                  C:\Users*my username*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\SimObjects\JF_PA28_Warrior_II\state.CFG

                  And now a new surprise: The file indicates 27,3 hours (Total time since WarriorII purchase on July 7th) but the hobbs in the airplane still indicates 0002,5 (Total time since the upgrade done last saturday)
                  Very strange…

                    @katchaplin Well I got it now!!

                    Sorry I have not realised they were two paths for two 'state.cfg' I was helped by Simon from JustFlight team so I resume:

                    Too paths:

                    • ![C:\Users<my username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_PA28_Warrior_II\state.CFG

                    Is my path to the last released aircraft version's ‘state.cfg’ file. (Written 0002,5 hours) loading in the game
                    Must be modified manually to « 0022,6 hours » (or whatever we want)

                    • C:\Users<my username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\SimObjects\JF_PA28_Warrior_II\state.CFG

                    Is the link to my previews used aircraft version's ‘state.cgf’ file (Written 0022,6 hours) that doesn’t load anymore.
                    (I did a copy/paste)

                    Now it works fine! Cheers!
