# Single Player Flights

Referring to the preceding section, [DCS Exporter Options](/tacview/flight-simulator/dcs-world/dcs-exporter-options.md), ensure that you have the tacview module enabled, flight data recording enabled, and single-player flights set to record all available data (or record local player only if you prefer).

Perform a single-player flight in DCS World. Tacview does not need to be running during the flight.

Find your ACMI file in your `%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Tacview\` folder:

![DCS World - Default Export Path](https://681332907-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FZ9tiJ3xbT7zyJ4FlZiMM%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-865acbe0644624381b3da0ad1d4583134af3f924%2Fdcs-world-single-player-flight-default-export-path.png?alt=media)

To change the recording folder, make your choice at `Options` → `ACMI Files Recording Folder`.

![DCS World - Change Recording Folder](https://681332907-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FZ9tiJ3xbT7zyJ4FlZiMM%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-ca5eddc58c49203e69757eca5dc6bb920d598692%2Fdcs-world-single-player-flight-recording-folder.png?alt=media)

If it is more convenient for you not to open Tacview to make this change, whether or not you are running a dedicated server, you can make it directly in the `options.lua` file as described in [Using Tacview with DCS Dedicated Server](/tacview/flight-simulator/dcs-world/using-tacview-with-dcs-dedicated-server.md). Note the double backslashes:

```
...
["tacviewExportPath"] = "C:\\Downloads\\",
...
```

To open and analyze your file, follow the steps in [Opening a File](/tacview/getting-started/opening-a-file.md).

If no files are being generated, or the files are empty, see the [DCS World FAQ](/tacview/faq/dcs-world-faq.md)

We are now ready to move on to multiplayer flights!
