Ai aircraft

This is probably in the wrong place


Is it possible to have more than 1 add on ai programs running at the same time at the same airport e.g. retro ai and anz 06/07 at wellington??

Yes AI uses traffic files saved in "\Flight Simulator 9\Scenery\World\scenery" (for FS9 not sure about FSX.)
Each one describes a set of AI traffic.
Files look like this: Traffic GNZLAP40.bgl or whatever the designer has named them.
You need to be careful that 2 traffic files don't describe the same aircraft flight otherwise strange duplications occur.

Same in FSX

The other problem that may occur, is that your airports may get overcrowded with AI. When this happens, a lot of them either will not land,(go missed approach then dissapear) or do a T&G then dissapear, or may even land then blink out if there is not enough parking at the airport for them all. You can modify the airports parking using Lee Swordy's AFCAD 2.21 to add extra parks in FS9.
I usually modify the AFCADs for my airports with a lot of extra parks, as i use a LOT of different AI.
The other problem you may encounter with a lot of AI around, is a great reduction in frame rates at busy airports. Some medium spec, and older spec machines can be brought to their knees with too much AI, and the whole thing turns into a very slow slideshow !!

Thanks
i have afcad tool but can not open any default airports for fsx. do i need something else?

[ZK-Brock]

The AFCAD tool was made for FS9. Basically to use it for FSX you need to open an airport form the FS9 list and save it in the FSX/addon scenery/scenery folder.

Now i'm having clashes between NZ light projects and Wi06-07_AirNewZealand. I think it's just auckland but whenever i try and start there the game crashes. but when only one is "on" it works fine. Any clues??


Now Light ai project isn't working at all
