TTools for MSFS Forum

Can anyone help me out? I installed Project A1 base (also checked the other box)and am using ttools1.2 to compile aircraft and plans. Unfortunately, I don't see any large planes, and large airports like KATL, KORD, and KLAX are like ghost terminals. On the other hand I see small aircraft at smaller airports like Meigs and Aspen. They seem to be the default aircraft.I have default.dp and.cdp, and airlines.cfg in the main aircraft folder. I also have traffic.bgl in the >ATC>scenery folder.The compiler compiles as it should, but the aircraft simply do not show up.Any ideas? I've been to the PIA forum but have not found the answer.Thanks in advance, dek

Good Morning All,Just wanted to say that if you haven't yet installed Bill's KATL 4 runway update, RUN, don't walk, and get it (file name aikatlm1.zip). I installed it yesterday and I have to say that KATL is now wonderful. Installation is a snap if you follow Bill's instructions. I now have Delta traffic where it should be and the best is that all 4 runways are in use!Great job, Bill!

Hello,Well I started from scratch again, now I get aircraft, only this is what it looks like.

The only problem I have with Project AI is the lack of any documentation. Does anyone know how to load the schedules? I have downloaded several schedules for the appropriate airlines but I have no idea how to load them. Do I load them by hand with TTools?thanks for any help.Brian

there are land before the runway, this is only happen to the plane that I addon, there are takeoff OK. I got my plane from www.jetstream.41.btinternet.co.uk.

I want to use AFCAD to make multiple overlays for Honolulu International Airport but I need to know which runways do they normally use. Anyone who lives there, or who knows which ones they use can ypu please tell me.Thanks

Thomas Molitor has now identified the entries giving problem for users of ATCVoicepack with localized versions of Flight Simulator 2002.Please try to delete the following airline callsigns before updating the voicepack file:Canjet, Caravan and Challenge Air CargoWhile this fixed the issue for German, there is no promises for other languages, but it is likely it's tha same files giving the problems.For now I think we have to live with it, then I will spend my holiday trying to figure out what can be done to solve the problem permanently.

I'm sure that many people here remember John Stottlemire, the developer of Add-A-Gate. I received the following note via ICQ this morning, and wished to pass on the news:"this small note goes out to everyone John was communicating with onICQ:My name is Scott, and I am the brother of John. We hate to inform those of you whom he communicated with over the internet that he died last week of a massive heart attack."As was the case with Gerry May (aka: "Celtic") a few months ago, theentire flightsim community is now somewhat diminished; Gerry for hisrapid wit, and John for his genial helpfullness, as well as hisinnovative and groundbreaking work towards unraveling the myster…

Finished Aerolineas Argentinas MD80, will be working on A340, B732 and B742 (will probably paint in the B743 model since PAI has no 742's yet) and doing the complete schedule, will be ready for PAI review in the next few days... Aerolineas Argentinas operates from their bases in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Their base is divided between Ezeiza And Aeroparque airports (SAEZ and SABE).

Hello, Well; I installed all of the available flight plans from PAI. I also installed manually approx 4,000 flight plans in the US. All of my manually installed plans seem to work. The PAI plans that were auto-installed via their EXE files do not work. I installed every one that was available on thier web page. The aircraft was also installed.I went to Paris, and nothing, no ad-on PAI aircraft at all. I waited and waited. I even went x4 and waited. Anyone else have this problem or know whats wrong. Everything was auto-installed. I did not get any errors except Lufthansa, which I corrected manually.Michael

PAI repaints section now open for download :) Can't wait to see airports like KORD, EGLL, VHHH filled with aircraft and won't bring your computer to a crawl!!! I am waiting to see if PAI staff accept the following repaints and schedules. Spirit Airlines, NKS MD80 main hub in Ft Lauderdale FL, KFLL using over 30 aircraft/ 100+ flights daily. Pluna, PUA B732, B733, B762 hub in Montevideo, Uruguay, SUMU using 8 aircraft. Here are a few screenshots:

Hello Everyone,Inside the Aircraft Listing file do the number have to be in order?.ExampleAC#1AC#2AC#3 and so onorcan they be mixedAC#1AC#54AC#12I did not see anywhere in the text on this issueThank youMike

Hi,I'm in the middle of updating one of my own sceneries. I've started nearly from scratch. I've had all the nodes positionned, the links created and named. Everything saved. I then closed AFCAD for the night.Now that I'm back to continue with the parking spots, I realise that all links have disappeared. The nodes are still there but all references to taxiways have disappeared. The only solution I've found so far is to export the airport when I'm done with all changes. When I start again, I have to import the airport again and then, everything is fine.Have you ever experienced that before ? Have you found the reason why and the solution ?Thx, Brgds

Hi,Just would like to ask which AI manager program is the easiest one to manage the AI aircraft and AI flightplans? Is there a program around which manage both in an easy way?Fly safe,Staffan Ahlberg - FFG:-spacecraft

I've been a bit busy lately but I've put in some effort today and added the following to yRoute29/6/2002 Now shows a rudimentary timetable for any airport, you can insert legs as well as being able to add them to the end of the current list, the main list is sorted by ICAO code when viewing airports and also shows the Callsign when displaying aircraft. You can also load other flightplan text files other than the default flightplan.txt, although your only option (at this stage) is to save them back to the same file you read them from. You can now compile flight plans from within the program - just make sure TCompiler.exe is in the current directory.30/6/2002 New 'Mass Up…

This is an example flight plan.AC#45,N2534A,37%,24Hr,IFR,13:29:50,14:10:26,190,F,3471,KSHV,14:39:58,15:20:34,180,F,3452,KDFWIf I sit at KSHV and watch I see the aircraft arrive at 14:10 and taxi to gate but when the departure time of 14:39 rolls around the plane just disappears.This happens on all the flight plans I have checked. Any one else seen this behavior or have any ideas what's going on?I can go to the world menu and change time back to before 14:39 and plane will taxi and takeoff on time so I'm pretty sure the flight plan is ok.

I'm having a problem with compiling. Whenever I get to sorting sector band 255, TCompiler performs an illegal operation. I had this problem a long time ago and can't remember what I did to correct it. I tried searching old threads, but did not find it.Any ideas?Mike

Hi,I've got a problem where my AI works fine except for when aircraft taxi to their parking spots. They never actually get to the gate - instead they make it onto the apron and start excecuting continuous loops and figure eights!There is plenty of parking available. The airport is basically the stock one out of the box with about 2 extra spots added. All spots are the correct size (all are 157ft as I'm only using 747s at the moment). All aircraft are default repaints. All parking spots are joined to the taxiway by a link.If I can get this solved then I'll finally be happy with my Ai setup...appreciate any helpPaul

Hello, I am planning to ad the following to my flight plans.1.American 5.Jetblue 9.America West 13.United2.Aeromexico 6.Continental 10.Northwest 14.US Airways3.Aloha 7.Delta 11.PanAm 15.Southwest4.Alaska 8.Hawaiian 12.TWA How can I change all the aircraft numbers without having to change them one at a time?. Is this possible? I tried Excel, which changed them, but when I save the format is wrong.ThanksMichael

Anyone know the curretn URL for Project AI?ThanksBrian

Hi,I've read here that AI traffic happens only at 75nm(?) around airports.Okay, I imagine, I power up a 747 and follow an AI A340(-300) track, direct Lisbon-Miami (should not be much land on that route), departing about 15 minutes later than the 340. Using max cruise power, I should be able to overtake her on some 1000 ft relative altitude. Fine so far.But, altering the departure time, I should be able to overtake her right in the middle of nowhere (200nm water in every direction). Would it be displayed? Anyone tried this already?ToMey

Hello there, I am new to this AI thing, as I have just discovered FS2002. My question is I fly out from YPPH and have my traffic set at 33% due to a lowly P3/600 notebook. I see that aircraft are landing ok, but when I start to taxi to the holding point of a respective runway, there are aircraft already there (3 or 4) and 1 (usually a 747) on the other taxiway, but they never take off. When I pull up in the Q, the aircraft doesnt go onto the runway, even tho there are no aircraft on finals. Am I missing something here? Sorry for the possibly silly question. Thanks a million Chris

Hi all, on some very busy airports, the ai planes that just landed gut stuck on the runway even though there are enough gates to go and enough taxiways to taxi off the rundway. This happens usually at very busy airports, see for example KDFW.Ok, ok, I loaded real AA and DL flightplans, so traffic is really very dense. But does this simply happen because MSFS can't hanlde so much traffic, or is there a bug somewhere? BTW, most of my ai planes are repaints of the default a/c.Thanks for your answersAlex

With the latest issue of Traffic Tools is there a max number of aircraft you can have in your aircraft.txt file?Mine sits at 237. I thought that 250 was the max, but this might have changed...anyone know?http://members.cox.net/joshieca/fstimeslink.gif
