OK here's what I'll do:
Package 1 will be a bog-standard AI package with the "standard" RNZAF aircraft.
This should satisfy most users, and I'll upload it in a day or so.
Package 2 will take a little thought and will follow later, with "Airshow" and special AI

Thanks for a great AI project Charl - I am about to install it now. just a quick question. Can I assume that the included Woodbourne AFCAD is compatible with RealNZ's Marlborough?

cheers - Ran

Yes all AFCADs supplied assume that RBE 20m mesh + topo is loaded, plus any applicable RealNZ products.
Often they'll work for other configurations too.

Hi Charl, I downloaded this package today however after a great deal of searching i'm yet to spot an iroquois buzzing around! Can you give me a time/place i can expect to see them? I've hung around Ohakea at various times but still haven't spotted one! The Herc's, 757's, P3's and kingairs show up fine. Also, what NZ airports do these a/c fly to? (other than NZOH,NZWB and NZWP of course!).... blink.gif

Iroquois should be buzzing around NZOH, most of the time.
Someone else has mentioned no helos, I'll have to go check further...
There's one at NZWB from time to time.
The RNZAF fly to many places - there are some custom AFCADs which make the P-3's do coastal surveillance rounds.
A Traffic Tools decompile of the flight plans will show all destinations, here and foreign.
Edit: to answer your question, within NZ, also NZWN and NZCH

It may depend upon what % you have your GA slider set to under your FS9 traffic options. I think 70% sees everything airbourne- Charl will need to confirm this.

Just had a quick look at the Iroquis fp's and cannot see NZOH or NZWB listed and also most of the plans have
the helos operating in in the afternoon only ? Also only operating within a 4 Hr schedule confine.
Not too sure what NZ73'33'04 denotes,possibly something to do with a modified afcad ?
Hope this sheds a bit of light
Charl will know I am certain

Have just sussed why no choppers.....if you go to the iroquis aircraft.cfg file the description line
should be the same as the aircraft descrition line in your aircraft traffic file
ie "RNZAF UH-1H Iroquois (3 Sqn) Green" from the aircraft.cfg appears as "RNZAF Iroquois NZ3801" this in the
aircraft traffic file.........hence why no show.
It can be fixed but takes a bit of time and is quite simple.........just a thought

NZOH looks in my scenery very empty - no hangars etc. like on the screenies above. Is it the scenery from Deane Baunton, mentioned in the forum at 25.5.2007? Is there a possibility to get this scenery?

Yes sorry guys I was in a rush so uploaded a beta flightplan.
I'm away from my flightsim computer for a week or so but I'll fix this with the next upload.
And the modified Ohakea scenery will follow at that time too.

OK the next piece is up at AVSIM.
Search "Charl" and you'll find it.
Warning: this is really only for hardcore AI nutters.
If you don't have the patience to wait for things to develop, you might be better off reading Harry Potter again.
BUT! this one has the choppers, I trust.

Looking back earlier in the thread: how far did you get with your helo models?
The .air files could be used as is from the Hueys in this package.

I notice both Pack 1 and Pack 2 contain duplicate named Callsign files. eg: Boeing and King Air

Are both required to be imported into Voicepack or do the ones in P2 replace the earlier ones in P1?
Testers are born to fiddle. What does this button do? Oh! Never mind.....

They're identical.
Pack 1 was made by deleting a whole lot of stuff from the Beta release (including the wrong helicopters!)
Pack 2 put back a whole lot of stuff.

There are going to be plenty of rough edges found I'm afraid, despite KIMZ28's kind words earlier about striving for perfection.

I'd dearly love an updated Whenuapai scenery, and I may yet turn my hand to GMax before I move on and take up golf again...

Thanks Charl. I just wasn't sure so thought it best to ask in case others were confused as well.

Great package. From my quick play last night after doing the install, there's lots of helo's around Ohakea.

Well done to all concerned.
