.ACF Estensione file

Aircraft file used by X-Plane, a realistic flight simulator for pilots and simulator hobbyists; contains data that describes the properties of the aircraft, such as engine power, flight physics, mass properties, and limits.

You can create an ACF file using Plane-Maker, which is a utility that comes with X-Plane. However, Plane-Maker does not enable you to create a 3D model, it is only used to determine the layout of basic aerodynamic shapes and properties of the aircraft. You can use the AC3D application with the X-Plane plugin to create a 3D model in the X-Plane OBJ format.

NOTA: Before version 10 of X-Plane, the ACF file contained aircraft data in binary format. It now contains data in text format.

Convolution kernel file created by Adobe Photoshop, an image-editing program; contains a NxN kernel matrix of values used to manipulate the neighboring pixels surrounding a given pixel; can contain positive and negative values as well as mathematical expressions.

Convolution kernel matrixes can be used for blurring, sharpening, embossing, or performing other raster graphic operations to an image; once saved in an ACF file, they can be repeatedly applied to images.

Data file that describes a character created for Microsoft Agent, an interactive animation program; contains character data that can be loaded over the HTTP (or Web) protocol; saved along with a corresponding .ACA file, which contains animation data for the character.

NOTE: Microsoft Agent has been discontinued with the release of Windows 7.

An ACF file is a plain text file used to simulate an aircraft in Google Earth Pro's flight simulator. It defines the aircraft's name, description, and properties. By default, Google Earth Pro contains two ACF files: one use to simulate an F-16 and another used to simulate an SR22.

If you want to view or edit the data an ACF file contains, you can open it with Microsoft Visual Studio Code (multiplatform) or any other text editor. If you want to use an ACF file with Google Earth Pro (multiplatform), you must replace one of the app's two existing ACF files.
