  1. Whenever I run a check "config file encoding" in TOOLS I get this error on screen - I selected SAVE in Addon Organizer before exiting and checking, and it won't go away. Does anyone know how to correct this. Thanks.

  2. I am using Lorby Live Traffic 3_02_b06_Install_P3D_V4 in P3D v4.5 with HF3, on Windows Version 21H1 (OS Build 19043.985). Live Traffic has worked flawlessly for me for ages. I have been very happy with it. But, in a recent Windows Update I noticed there was a .NET update. Since then, Live Traffic does not start correctly. I am getting the following error: System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed out. Other Lorby programs (Addon Organizer 1_55_b10 and Flashlight 1_05_b01) are working fine. This error takes quite a while to appear (ie, it's waiting for a timeout, obviously). But, once it does appear and I click the "Continu…

  3. Hi Oliver, I'm running AO v1.55 b10 and have an issue with an AIG entry which is impacting on the Save option. When I launch AO a message appears advising a new Package has been detected - AIGAIM Airports. This is one entry of six in the supplied add-on.xml file by AIG. The entry is shown in the scenery list in dark green as as addon. I okay the message and press Save which is highlighted in red. A confirmation appears and after pressing OK the save button shows in red. If I exit AO I get a warning message that changes have not been saved. Any idea why this is happening and how to solve it?

    Hi, I've just installed LorbyLiveTraffic (to use with FLai) on p3dV5 and I cannot use it because whichever aircraft I am using, the airspeed randomly drop to zero. It's like entering slew mode and exit it. The aircraft just fall from the sky. Anyone with this problem? Thanks

    Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone knows something about the likelihood of that tool coming to MSFS. With the arrival of water effects and more seaplanes, the new sim may become increasingly interesting for seaplane pilots and that tool is quite essential for "parking" them. Blue skies to all.

    Is there any chance of updating PayloadManager X to work with MSFS Oliver? I used the program with P3Dv4 and it was a wonderful addition to enhance the virtual experience in my Flight Sim Economy flights. Being able to see the passengers arrive at the aircraft in GSX2 and glancing back into the cabin to see them seated was amazing during the flight. Granted the people models arriving at the aircraft and those seated were different but as flight simmers we are masters of 'suspension of disbelief' so it never mattered. Regards, Paul.

    At the end of running AIG - AI Manager which automaticly start AI Lights Reborn Pro, I got an error: "Compiled shader folders for P#D version 5 cannot be found." etc. I did some digging and found this in the C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5\Shaders_P4AO.

    For on unknown reason the AddonOrganizer does not start up anymore since January 1st. I re-installed the program, but in vain. I was running the program for +1 year, without any issue. I have P3D v4.5 and multiple extra sceneries. Any suggestion how to proceed to get it back up and running ? Peter Magnus Belgium

    I look at the community folder and realize that in a year there will be a big mess. All addons are piled up in a heap. Long addon names are hard to read. (drzewieckidesign-moscowlandmarks: orbx-airport-ksba-santa-barbara🥶) Moreover, any folder can be renamed and the addon will continue to work. I would like to have a tool for organizing and disabling addons.

    Hi: I am running the latest PAO and just installed LatinVFR's KFLL. When I start PAO I get the error shown in the link below. But what is strange is that the add-on.xml is recognized and works fine in P3D v5.1HF1. I checked the encoding with Notepad++ and the encoding matches all my other add-on.xmls (UTF-8-BOM). I have attached the xml file for your information. Is this a problem with PAO or am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help! Dropbox link deleted.

  17. Greetings all, and to Lorby, thanks again for your great add on organizer. I have noticed that usually when I add a new scenery, the first P3D boot takes an unusually longer time than normal. At the moment as I write this, Task Manager reports the scenery seems stuck at 45752 MB. Sometimes, I will simply end the process and try again...the last time I did this earlier today, my computer went into crash mode and rebooted...very odd... Should I delete the scenery.cfg file and let P3D rebuild its own, or is there something else to try. Thanks. Sherm

  22. I am using "LorbyLiveTraffic_3_01_b19_Install_P3D_V4", to produce random AI helicopters (just helicopters only) in Prepar3D v4.5 with HF3. I recently installed FSDG's Paro Airport. Previously I had a customized AFCAD file for Paro. The customized AFCAD had a helipad and a heli start position on that pad. Before installing FSDG's Paro, LorbyLiveTraffic would generate random AI helicopters on that pad. After installing FSDG's Paro, I removed the customized Paro AFCAD file by deleting it completely out of the P3D Addon Scenery folder where it resided. The geographical location of FSDG's Paro airport in the simulator is more accurate than the location of…

    I am wondering if its possible to create a separate ai folder specifically for lorby live traffic. my idea is to have normal traffic (aig flight plans) for scheduled airlines. and use lorby live traffic for charter flights (such as an-124s for example). the documentation says its possible to create a custom model database by clicking on the "custom radio button". however "custom radio buttion" is nowhere to be found.
