TTools for MSFS Forum

Hi All,Does anybody have ASA schedules for this year, or even 1 or 2 years ago. I could not find anything in avsim, PAI, Flightsim or even in ASA site. Any help is welcome.Sotiris.

Does anyone know of Federal Express global flight plans (not the KAFW version available here). Tried all the sites I know to no avail.

As I understand it, TTools compiles weekly flight plans as separate flightplans for each day. My question is , as long as the same aircraft is used for each flight,why couldn't you combine all the specific days into one flightplan, saving scenery files and parking spaces. I would think as long as you have the same A/C #/N or flight # /X%/Week/IFR or VFR info at the beginning, you could combine as many as 7 flight plans. Since I am no expert at this I thought I would get an opinion from someone who knows more on this subject than I do. What say you all?:-hmmm

Some of my AI aircraft are told to hold, stating other aircraft on taxiway. On checking no other aircraft are moving or in the area of that aircraft. The aircraft stands still until eventually it disappears. AFCAD fault finding reports no errors. Has anyone got an explanation for this?

I have installed all the PAI and WoAI packages for all airlines available including Japanese domestic airlines, but I hardly see any flying traffic over Japenese airspace. Got all the AFCADs I could find, and there is plenty of aircraft standing around, but none flying --- or almost none. AI traffic is fine anywhere else in the world. Any ideas?

Hi All, I need your help on that matter. I spent two nights without finding any workaround on this. The problem is that some - not all - AI aircraft do not appear even though FS sees them. After in depth "investigation" I found out that there must be a problem with TTools 2.02 I got. Something, maybe Zone Alarm firewall or something else, may have corrupted it, but I am not positive on that. I mean that TTools has all required info to create traffic.bgl files but the result is that some files have no effect on FS. I reinstalled model, air, & aircraft.cfg files of the aircraft involved, but no good. As far as I recall, I did add nothing else but that firewall, which I …

Can they be made invisible and still exist to direct AI ?The aprons of the airport I try to build (in the boondocks :-)) are tangential to the runway and made of leveled earth. I want to be able to direct AI aircraft but not see the path and hold short yellow lines to appear.thanks

I noticed the other day that some of my strickly-AI aircraft have panel references, usually an alias to one of the default planes. A few of the aliased panels have Reality XP Garmins in them which made me wonder whether AI with panels are harder on frame rates than Ai without panels. Shoud I remove these references or are they harmless.

Using afcad2 and TTools I managed to fill LCRA Akrotiri AB in Cyprus with RAF aircraft, some dedicated AI, others NOT AI, like the Kazunori Ito Lightning (and repaints of that). I also threw in a Gannet AEW3 and a Westland Wyvern to give the airbase a Fleet Air Arm presence.I flew a 74 Tiger sqn F1A Lightning from Akrotiri to Beirut Intl (OLBA: BEIRUT INTL) in 20 minutes with a plan from VOR to VOR, and overflew a USN Carrier at the first VOR, which was named VCVN--a suprise as I had forgotten I had placed that carrier there some time.This was a distance of 185 miles, which turns out an average speed of 504 miles for the Lightning--true to fact. The Lightning could do al…

Hey.I got a problem some time ago when I was looking at my AI in LEMD.I saw a B747 landing, but it touched-downed more about a

Has anyone successfully been able to make "drive through" parking?I'm making a military airfield which only have standby parking space. It's sort of like a drive through. Basically it's a branch of the taxiway that workd as a parkingspace, you drive in one way and out the other way. The problem is I can't get the AI to use it properly. When they start from one of these parking spaces they start by backing up and then turn 180 degrees and go to the runway another way. Is it possible to make them just drive straight through?

Is there a way to have A/C departing one way (say 14) and landing the other way (say 32) ? I've closed 14 to landing and 32 to taking off but that doesnt seem (understatement) to work. They do take off on 14 but tower still directs them to land there too. thanksDominique

hi,I tried to have two AI planes take off at the same time. I made two different AFCADs for the same airport. What happens is that the plane of the second airport does not want to take off from its own runway but tries to take the runway of the first airport.It taxis to its starting point, turns around and takes off from the other runway. I am still on FS2002, by the way. Any ideas?robystar

Does anyone know if the star crossing runway procedure outlined by Jim Viles will work for runway types other than concrete or asphalt? I have done a few airports, so I know how the procedure works, but can't get it to work with smaller airports with only gravel or water crossing runways.

Hi guys,I'm flying along now, 1920Z, from Glasgow to Heathrow...just passed over Manchester and heard the morning SIA flight being cleared for the approach...also at Heathrow I've noticed often in the afternoons the traffic that should be arriving at say 0500 in the morning (heavies from HKG, SIN etc) sometimes randomly turn up all at once in the afternoon...is there any explination for this at all?As far as I'm aware the plans have the @ in the text string...it just seems weird that this happens, and the thing is that it happens say 1/5 times i load the AI?

I am having a strange little problem. I am making a new AI floatplane by converting an existing FSDS2 model to several LOD models. Done this before. Then I took a known seaplane base, a known flight plan, and used a known aircraft cfg file. On the existing plane, it will taxi out and do touch and goes all day. However, with the new airplane, it takes off and keeps on climbing until it is out of sight.This is leading me to think that something in the model is causing the problem. That doesn't make sense. It seems like the cfg and air file should control the airplane, and the model would have nothing to do with it. It could be nothing more than a box.Has my reasoning gone a…

I have put together a small airfield complete with AFCAD and AI. I have put parking spots and a taxiway with some hold shorts. For some reason and I just cannot figure it out, if 2 planes come out at the same time, in this case a cherokee and a cub, they crash into each other or get mighty close. In addition, although I have a hold short node, the cub inevitably goes into the cherokee. I noticed as well that a plane crossed the stripeven though another was cleared for take off.What am I doing wrong here,any help would be really appreciatedThanksPaul

I have done a search on the forum but cannot find a definative answerI have arranged my AI aircraft in a number of Exel worksheets sorted into categories. eg Operators, Aircraft make & model, Military, Cargo, etc. each aircraft with its own unique AC# ID.I want to be able to cut and paste these AI Aircraft into flight plans, keeping their ID, so my question isWhen I compile a flightplan1.Can the initial start number be any number ie. could the first line be AC#365......2.Do the AC# numbers have to follow on and increase by 1 each time eg.AC#365......AC#366......AC#367......AC#368......or can they be displayed in the Aircraft.txt file as followsAC#365......AC#377.....…

I have a very strange problem that I haven't been able to find any solution to. I have replaced an existing airport with my own version as the original was only a landningstrip and I wanted to add all the taxiways. Everything seems correct and I've used the fault finder tool in AFCAD. All taxiways seems connected and I have a number of parking areas of the right size and type. Still I can't get any AI routes from this airport. They just dissapear if I add them.Even more strange is that an AI flight I made from another airport to this one, flies just as it should all the way up to the approach. Then it makes a touch and go a hundred meters west of the runway (in the middle…

Hi everyone,today it's happenend a weird thing to me, hope someone could explain it.. Installing a flightplan I've noticed that on evai there was a better aircraft that the one I've owned. So, I've downloaded and istalled. In the same time I've deleted the PAI aircraft and renumered all aircrafts that follow on the aircraft.cfg I hope you follow me!I've discovered (with my surprise) that all aircrafts that I've renumered aren't showned up! :( I think is a issue of mrai installer (I use mrai), there is anyone with my problem too? There is anyone with the solution (obviously the most simple solution is re-install all flightplans with aircrafts disappeared!)?Thanks a lot, I …

I run the latter, and can't seem to do anything with the former. Does Traffic 2004 override TTools? How can I get my VA's AI package to work without sacrificing Traffic 2004? A prior attempt at trying to get these issues resolved kinda withered on the vine, but I am really focused on getting my AI to be the best that it can be, and I am obviously having some issues. Any advice would be appreciated.

I downloaded ai ardvarks 737-800 winglets model along with a virgin blue and qantas textures for it. i folowed the instructions placing the files in the aircraft folder and the textures in the aia 737-800 winglet folder. i went into the flightx text file to get the lines of code and inserted them into the aircraft.cfg folder looks like this.[fltsim.2]title=AIA Boeing 737-800W Virgin Blue (Winglets)sim=aia_737_NGmodel=no_reflpanel=sound=texture=Virgin Blue_watc_id=VH-VOWatc_airline=Virginatc_flight_number=505ui_manufacturer=Aardvarkui_type=Boeing 737-800ui_variation=Virgin Blue (Winglets)description=AI Aardvark 737-800atc_id_color=0000000000visual_damage=1atc_parking_codes…

I'm trying to populate RAF Coltishall with some Jaguars, using the AP Designs Jag. I created a TNG flightplan that worked fine with a B200, but the Jaguar never throttles back, ending up screaming along at 480 KIAS with the gear down until it blows up. Is there anything I can do about this?Thanks

Hey guys,Does anyone know of a program that will track AI aircraft textures that are not used and automatically delete and rearrange the Aircraft file? I had a program but somehow mangaed to delete it and cannot find it anywhere.RegardsMiles

I have been using TTools for a while now, and have had success with implementing good AI traffic into FS2004. Yesterday, I decided I wanted to add a new airline to my flight plans :-) After I did that, I decided to try it out. Now, only 1 airline shows up in FS2004. I decompiled the traffic.bgl, all other airlines are still there, all their flight plans are still there, including the new one. I have tried everything I know how, but every attempt would result in only 1 airline showing up in FS2004 (or, if I removed it, NO airlines at all). :-(I have completely run dry of ideas. Any help would be appreciated. -GoldWings-
