# 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](/files/R7s3Hae42DH0barJZAku)

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

![DCS World - Change Recording Folder](/files/Gz3p1yFlwSBf8tdXg38d)

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!
