TTools for MSFS Forum

I recently started playing with TTools... great program. But I'm having a problem getting the AI to actually do a TNG. I've programmed a 172 to depart 0O5 (which has parking) and then do a TNG at 2Q3 (no parking). The first time I ran the scenario the AI 172 did indeed do 1 TNG at 2Q3. It then took off and stayed in the pattern on downwind... but kept on going!!! He didn't do any additional circuits (I followed him in my own 172). Since then I have tried to witness his TNG. I've heard him call position, then enter pattern and call downwind leg. But he just keeps on going!!0O5 is in the original TTools Airports file, but I added 2Q3. I've double checked the Long/L…

Does anyone know if a tool has been made to remove the default aircraft yet (as in FS2002). I have installed all of my PAI traffic and want to get rid of the default airline aircraft, but keep the GA aircraft. I suppose I could do it by hand but....Thanks

With other words, which speed does FS2002 take to calculate arrival times.I'm asking, because my problem is that after compiling real world flightplans (e. g. of MRAI) my system sets the arrival time of many flights AFTER the departure time of the subsequent flights of the same AI. This has the effect that all these planes do not show up at these airports.E. g. flights from SYD to HKG, which take a bit more than 9 hrs in the real world, take around 11 hrs in my FS2002. So they arrive after they are supposed to depart for their flight back.I have allready set the cruising altidudes to unrealistic low levels, but I have no effect noted. The only solution, which I found so f…

Now that the new TTools 2.01 is available I have found that yRoute can be made to work with FS9 (FS2004), but AITM12SP1 will not, unfortunately.I use yRoute to check that I have not made any silly error with aircraft titles (such as an extra space), because I use Excel for my flightplans manipulations.If you are interested in using yRoute for FS9 then this is what I did:a) Moved yRoute to be a subfolder of TTools 2.01:( Changed the yRoute.ini from J:FS2002 to J:FS9 {use whatever drive and directory you have your FS9 installed}c) Copied aircraft030528.txt, airports030528.txt, and flightplans030528.txt from TTools to yRouted) Renamed each of these .txt files in yRoute to a…

Hi!After having read about the possibility to have numerous different traffic.bgls I wanted to give it a try and added some cargo traffic.I followed the instructions and created new aircraft, airport and flightplan text files and named it aircraft_cargo.txt and so on. Everything compiled fine but the problem is that the new traffic doesn't show up in FS2004. Could this be caused by limited parking spaces, I mean is one traffic.bgl processed and served with parking spaces prior the other? I've also added the following line to my aircraft.cfg of the cargo planes: "atc_parking_types=CARGO" I've also tried without but no change.Any idea or similar problem?Thanks, Toby

Hi Everybody.Could someone tellme where is afd files in FS2004?I searched in the game and I didn

So, I've depended on AI Traffic Mover with FS2002, but that may not be updated for a while, and I am eager to get the fictional airlines the heck out of FS2004.Here is what I want to do:I want to keep the current AI traffic (including commercial and GA), but swap out all of the fictional paints with real-world repaints and AI Aardvark planes. I also want the repaints distributed based on country of origin.Are there any other front-ends other than AI Traffic Mover that can do this for me?

What is the logic in assigning acft to different runways? I usually fly out of KSEA and I note the only acft to get a landing assignment different from the main runway are myself (in military fighters) and helicopters (using the .air files located here on avsim).I also note that after adding some of my own routes to an additional traffic.bgl, the fast movers overtake and fly through the slower acft on final (even after being told to follow them).Another note: ahd the airport full, and it was funny to watch a couple of acft taxi ALL OVER the airport to get to the active runway. It took 20-30 minutes due to crossing runways with landing/takeoff traffic. (but the He111 duti…

We have project ai, ultimate traffic. We need a project ai sound that can make sound for our ai aircraft.The ai aircraft sound soft on take off, landing an taxiing. The startup sound is unrealistic; I am wondering if this can be change an if so is there any one will to do it. I can help getting sounds of aircraft landing take off start up, taxi and shout down. I can get sounds of A320,21,340,B737,757.

I have been using the new version of TTools for last couple days and it has been working fine as I've been slowly migrating some flight plans over from 2002. Today, each time I've tried to compile, it gets stuck about 1/4 of the way through when 'sorting traffic secotors". Has anyone else had this problem?? When I hit ctrl-alt-del, it says it is not responding. I have not been able to find a solution. Thnx for any help!

People!I have been asked by Simon Haynes (of yRoute fame!) to inform everybody that he is dedicating this evening to developing yRoute to work with FS2004 & TTools v201 by Lee Swordby.(Simon hasn't got an AVSIM account at the moment hence this message)Traveller.

OK -I've used TTools (and AFCAD) for FS2002. I followed the latestdirectons for Mr. Lee Swordy's AWESOME update to Traffic Toolsfor FS2004.Here's my FlightPlans_3CK.txt file -AC#1, N37890,50%,24Hr,IFR,00:00:00,TNG01:00:00,003,R,0000,3CK,01:10:00,TNG01:25:00,003,R,0000,3CKAC#22,N93485,50%,24Hr,IFR,00:00:00,TNG03:00:00,003,R,0000,3CK,03:10:00,TNG03:25:00,003,R,0000,3CKAC#23,N77432,50%,24Hr,IFR,00:00:00,TNG05:00:00,003,R,0000,3CK,05:10:00,TNG05:25:00,003,R,0000,3CKAC#24,N83554,50%,24Hr,IFR,00:00:00,TNG07:00:00,003,R,0000,3CK,07:10:00,TNG07:25:00,003,R,0000,3CKAC#25,N34222,50%,24Hr,IFR,00:00:00,TNG09:00:00,003,R,0000,3CK,09:10:00,TNG09:25:00,003,R,0000,3CKAC#26,N00102,50%,24H…

Just downloaded them to see if they could fix the stalled compiler, and lo & behold they did it :-hahAirport count: 23577Aircraft count: 1252Flight plan count: 20202Thank you Lee :-beerchug :-yellow1

I cant get this touch and go working for some reason, the plane gets clearence to taxi to 03 and hold, it does that, but then it disappears, what can i be doing wrong.OHN

I notice the default traffic file only includes some 5000 airports worth of traffic. The last version of TTools came with a "CollectAirports.exe" utility that read all 23000 airports into the Airports.txt file. Unfortunately, that utility doesn't work with FS2004. I imagine the airport data extracted from FS2002 might work with FS2004, but I don't have FS2002 installed anymore. Is anyone aware of plans to update CollectAirports to work with FS2004?- Caphollandhttp://caphollands.fsgateway.com

For those who might want a little bit more help with the new version of Traffic Tools, I have just posted two new help guides on my website.Click on the link below, then head to the University section. There you will find four guides on Traffic Tools covering versions 1.3.3. through 2.x advanced.Enjoy....and Thanks Lee for a great and still FREE program!- JDR[div align=center][link:www.jetdoc.com/ABT/unicom.html]Listen Live - Win Prizes - UNICOM Info Click Here][/b

Works Smooth!BTW, if you need someone to test the new AFCAD, I know this disabled Vet that has nothing better to do...:-wave

Having finally had the time to install most of the MRAI Master File, I'm now stuck at a rather important point.The compiler just stops after "Sorting Sector Bands". It reaches 255 and then just sits there doing nothing. The alst time I used it was way back when it was the Winter Timetables that were coming out.On a side note, does anyone knows what to put in place of the 2 missing airports FAMA & LDPL (I think)? MRAI have closed down, so I doubt I'll get an answer there.

Anxious to play around a little.

when i have traffic on 100% when viewing for more than an hour or so,my ai aircraft land after each other.so seem to just sit on therunway.can anyone tell me how i can over come this problem

Is it true that when we get fs2004, that if the traffic is moved over from fs2002, that the airplanes will not land, and just keep going around?If so, how do you fix this?

I have noticed that AI aircraft, when they taxi, do not consider other AI aircraft as obstructions, unless these AI aircraft are moving, i.e. active. Thus it is not uncommon to see an AI aircraft touching another parked AI aircraft as it makes its turn away from the parking stand.On the contrary, our own aircraft is always considered as an obstruction by the AI aircraft, parked or not.I often observe taxi-ing AI aircraft stopping short of my own aircraft while maneuvering, when in fact there is enough room for them to complete their maneuver.So here is my question:What are the AI aircraft considering, or basing their decision on, when it comes to my aircraft dimensions? a…

HelloCan anyone suggest a way of increasing the zoom out value in AIView in spot view mode? With GA aircraft and small jets the default zoom out settings work well. But with the heavies you are right there sitting on the wing even at max zoom out.Just in case folks dont know it - if you have AIView loaded, you can bring it up as a window during normal flight by clicking on CTRL-W. Repeat this and the program cycles through all the AI planes within range. You can use spot view and zoom in and out whilst in the window. Close the window with CTRL-Q.John

Hi,does anyone know if PAI traffic will be compatible with FS2004? So can I just copy and paste my aircraft.txt and flightplans.txt and can I just use the PAI aircraft if FS2002?

It's probably been asked before, but can helicopters be made to show up and land? In AFCAD, they allow you to create a helipad, but I can't get anything to land there. AITM accepts the Bell 205, and I can add a flight to the timetable, but nothing shows up. Knowing that the longest RW gets the traffic, I made an overlay with just the helipad. (BTW, I'm doing McClellan Park, formerly McClellan AFB). I want to have police & USFS choppers landing there. I have all sorts of other aircraft now landing there, but no helicopters. Can't figure what I'm doing wrong. Thanks for any input.
