TTools for MSFS Forum

Hi,What is the lowest altitude that can be set as the cruise altitude in an AI flight plan and if it is below 1000' how is it expressed in the txt file?ThanksJackhttp://www.dolphin-star.net/TCA/Paintshop/ybanner_tca_FM.jpgIntel P4 3.06Ghz 533FSB HT| 2GB Corsair 333Mhz PC2700 DDR | Asus P4P800 Deluxe | 2 x 120GB Maxtor ATA-133| Sapphire ATI 9800pro 128MB | Creative Audigy 2

E.g. for places like Boston Logan, Los Angeles Intl etc.?

Can anyone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong? I have used TTools and SimpleAI to produce all sorts of AI Traffic, but there are a couple of cases where the plane fails to land and will always abort and go-around. The airfields are my own creation - recently uploaded to AVSIM (EGPS, X6FS and X6ET) - and most a/c land ok, including TnGs if specified. Often the same a/c that wont land manage to take off from there perfectly well. Is it my AF2 file or the a/c that needs tweaking, or something else? I can't upload my AI Traffic for the airfields until I get this sorted.ThanksPaul

Hi, I have a problem installing Ai Aircraft into Valley AFB, EGOV,in the UK, i have checked the F9 Scenery cfg file to make sure the "Active" in there is True and it seems ok, i have made a couple of flight plans from Liverpool Airport EGGP to Cardiff EGFF and from Valley to Cardiff, Liverpool is ok but i can't get anything to show at Valley , i just can't figure out what could be wrong , Any help would be appreciated , Thanks.

G'day everyone,I am wondering why PAI aircraft do not show up after TTools had compiled the traffic.bgl? I do not have this problem with AIA, FSP, CDAI and others. The problem occures only recently when I tried to install three PAI aircrafts,[textures only] the MD11 and F50. I am using Fs2004 and TTools v2.02I'll be glad if someone or anyone having the same problem can share it with me to get me out of this frustration. Cheers,Aussiedin

Hello Folks:New at this. Flying a real plane is easier but more costly when things go wrong. Trying to find out why my AI 737-400 suddenly have no paint.Tried to decompile the .bgl files for last flight plans but get an error message "unable to create file C:Documents and SettingsOwnerDesktopWestOKAirports". I have no idea what that means. Do not recall ever seeing such a file. Hope some-one can help with either the lost paints or/and the error.

Does FS9 generate AI traffic all over the world while I fly or do the flightplans only generate traffic when AI aircraft get within a certain distance of my aircraft?Richard

For some reson the file is mising from the AVSIM libray. Steve Tran's repaint in the NC. It was file aimd81me.zip . If someone who has this please send it to me @ [email protected] I would appreciate it!

OK, I run FS9.1 on a 3.06 GHz HP machine (Windows XP Media Center 2005) with a P4 and a GB of RAM and a ATI Radeon 9250 256MB video card. I have numerous payware installations, mostly scenery, but also including Traffic 2004. I fly for a VA with its own PAI traffic; I merely need to install the PAI aircraft & update the textures. When I run the PAI Installer, even right after boot-up, I can get thru about 4 or 5 steps, then I get a message that "TTools is already running on your system" and I can then get nowhere. I exit the installer, go to Task Manager and see that there are in fact, no TTools-related applications running at all. WTH???Please advise.

When I try to compile I get this error:ERROR: Unable to write to output file D:Flight Simulator 9SceneryWorldSenerytraffic_TEMPAny ideas?

Hi everyone,I've just re-done the AFCAD file for 5Z1, Juneau, Alaska's seadrome. I then added a number of AI flights in and out but they aren't showing up at all.As a test, I copied and pasted the flight plans but changed the airport and it showed up fine (this was with a plane with straight floats, no wheels). This would seem to indicate that not only is the choice of aircraft fine, but so is the flightplan. Obviously, the problem is in the AFCAD file.I did a fault finder and no errors came up.Any ideas? Does the width of the taxi ways make any difference? I tried everything from 0 to 50' but that made no difference.I don't really care if the planes actually land or take…

Hey all-I have a problem I need help with. Nick Botamer made some TWA AI flight plans, but for some reason I can never get them to show up in FS9. I have TONS of other traffic, and want to throw good ol T-Dub into it as well. Is there a way to convert the standard traffic files to MRAI format? Or is there someone willing to do that for me?Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Hi All, Can i change the touchdown point on a runway for AI aircraft using Lee.s Afcad . Thanks .

Does anyone see any technical errors with this tutorial, or anything else for that matter. http://aimadeeasy.com The words are running, and everythings getting all blurry! lol I appreciate it guys.Mikewww.aimadeeasy.comwww.flightontario.comI'm confused. Wait...maybe I'm not!

Hi, a while back I used a program that tells how many gates at an airport are being used and when they will be used. But I can't remember what it's called. I've combed through Avsim and Flightsim.com but can't find it. I don't remember it being very popular - in fact, it's kind of elderly. But it was helpful.The main feature I can recall is it showing the parking spots and used times on a green wave graph. Does anyone have any idea of what it's called, or a listing of all the AI parking programs?ThanksEliot

As written in the readme of Holgers AI-ship package, the ship is supposed to go staight ahead when reaching the runway.Unfortunately the ship makes a 180 degrees turn at the end of the runway and sails back. Any ideas how to prevent the ship from turning around?

I have recently installed an Air France flight plan. Flights from EGNT to LFPG appear parked at a gate and eventually push back and take off. However incoming flights don't approach and land they just materialise at a gate. I've created a plan between EGNV & EGNT and that works fine. Can anyone help.

Recently I discovered VFR flights using Ttools or AI-Flight Creatorare not appearing. I first noticed it when using the Australian package VOS. Only IFR flights NOW appear in FS9. Earlier traffic files seem to be OK .I have over 80 traffic files in FS9.Anyone have a suggestion or solution? Hopefully (rnails)

I tried to build AI-Ship traffic as described, but the ship appears only for 2 or 3 seconds on the parking position and then disappears.The Traffic-Explorer shows the Ship with State "Pushback" just before it disappears. Any ideas?

Im flying a POSKY 757 in British Airways livery with the following lines in the CFG file.atc_parking_types=GATEatc_parking_codes=BAWBut why is it on a number of occasions, even with vacant BAW stands, ATC is sending me remote parking, or sometimes even onto other airlines dedicated stands (Lufthansa-DLH at EDDF, and TAP Air Portugal-TAP at LPPT) Cheers in advance

I've noticed that in some flight plans for AI aircraft there is the '@' character placed before departing times and others don't have it. I would like to make some flight plans for some regional airlines but would like to know what is the purpose of the '@'. I remember reading something about this some time ago but don't remember where or when. A search hasn't produced any results either. Would appreciate some factual information.Thanks ahead of time.

Hi everyone,recently I had some problems with my MRAI Compiler program. After filling the .xls file and after converting it in .txt (like I've always done), this time the compiler won't work. When I try to open the txt file with the flightplans I've a message: Runtime error '6': OverflowThis is very strange to me, i've compiled flightplans more complicated and long that this one... how could be the cause??? I would like to thank anyone that could help me.Vittorio

Hi GuysDespite saving AFCAD files with the required runway properties, I am still getting AI traffic, landing on 22R instead of 22L at Kastrup, and with the 04s.This is also happening at Gardemoen.Does anyone have AFCAD files that work correctly? Is this a problem with AI in general?I use Swedflight's EKCH scenery and Norwegian Airports.Stuart Sutton-Young

I arrived yesterday to Tokyo Narita, and I saw that some planes were parked in each other. Look at the ANA with cartoons in it, you can see a THAI 744 beneath it??? There was also another plane that had two JALs in it... What could be wrong here??http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/141562.jpg

I'm starting to get the hang of this manual AI stuff. However, I'm curious on one part. I want to install Frontier airlines with about 20 different textures (different tails). I have all of those textures installed in the two Airbus (A318/9) aircraft folders. My question is, when I edit the actual traffic file and am looking for the aircraft number, do I need to give each individual texture it's own AC#. And, after that, do I then need to edit the route text document to make sure I use all of these different texture.Right now, the traffic file is written with only two separate aircraft (the A318/9) and those two aircraft referenced throughout the route file. It seems like…
