1.0.0.5 works great, but it still gives me the FPS decease as soon as AI starting to approach.....

Dimitrios,

Here it is:

AIPUSHBACKHOLDTIME=20
AIEXTENDEDPUSHBACK=1
//AINOCONTROLCHECK=0
//AITAXISEPARATIONDISTANCE=200.0
//AIADVANCEDINCURSIONDETECTION=0
//AITAXILOCALDISTANCE=5.0
//AIMONITORRADIUS=55556
AILANDINGBRAKINGSCALAR=1.0 //start with 15.0 if using AILANDINGTARGETTIME
AILANDINGTARGETTIME=0
//AILANDINGBRAKINGGAIN=3.0
//AITAKEOFFTHRUSTDERATESCALAR=1.0 //start with 15.0 is using AITAKEOFFTARGETTIME
//AITAKEOFFTARGETTIME=0
//AITAKEOFFTHRUSTDERATEGAIN=3.0
AIPLANESPOTTINGONLY=1
//INSIMMESSAGELEVEL=2
//STARTMINIMIZED=1
INIPERIODICUPDATE=1

The two parameters to be modified are

AILANDINGBRAKINGSCALAR=1.0 //start with 15.0 if using AILANDINGTARGETTIME
AILANDINGTARGETTIME=0

so that there is no interference with ATCAPI (as per Roland recommendations)

Guys, do you mind sharing your current AIFlow settings as well? I'd like to use these 3 utilities together. 

Thanks.

 

Could anybody advise what is wrong in my settings? Active Runways don't show in the drop down menu:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
Parameters>
    <Airport>
    <ICAO>EGLL</ICAO>
    <ActiveTakeOffRunway>
        <Runway>R27L</Runway>
        <Probability>1</Probability>
    </ActiveTakeOffRunway>
    <ActiveLandingRunway>
        <Runway>R27R</Runway>
        <Probability>1</Probability>
    </ActiveLandingRunway>
    </Airport>
    <enableFastTakeOffs>1</EnableFastTakeOffs>
    <allowTakeOffDistance>6000</AllowTakeOffDistance>
    <taxiSpeedLimiter>30</TaxiSpeedLimiter>
    <runwayTaxiSpeed>60</runwayTaxiSpeed>
    <enableRollthenTakeOff>1</enableRollthenTakeOff>

    <isGUIVisible>1</isGUIVisible>
    <voidTimer>1000</voidTimer>
    <TaxiSeparationMultiplier>1.8</TaxiSeparationMultiplier>
</Parameters>

 

ICAO is recognized OK though..

Thanks

Remove that “1” probability, if you don’t assign any probability ATCAPI will give equal probability anyway. 
If that does not work try to assign 0.6 27R and 0.4 27L and check if you see something in the Drown menu.

Unfortunately none of these 2 worked.

I've modified config.xml that came with v1.0.0.4 (now dll is 1.0.0.5 though) it works now as follows:

 <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<Parameters>
    <Airport>
    <ICAO>EGLL</ICAO>
    <ActiveTakeOffRunway>
        <Runway>R27L</Runway>
        <Probability>0.5</Probability>
        <EmptyWeightLimit>23000</EmptyWeightLimit>    
    </ActiveTakeOffRunway>
    <ActiveTakeOffRunway>
        <Runway>R27R</Runway>
        <Probability>0.5</Probability>
    </ActiveTakeOffRunway>
    <ActiveLandingRunway>
        <Runway>R09R</Runway>
        <Probability>0.5</Probability>
    </ActiveLandingRunway>
    <ActiveLandingRunway>
        <Runway>R09L</Runway>
        <Probability>0.5</Probability>
    </ActiveLandingRunway>
    </Airport>
    
    <enableFastTakeOffs>1</EnableFastTakeOffs>
    <allowTakeOffDistance>6000</AllowTakeOffDistance>
    <taxiSpeedLimiter>30</TaxiSpeedLimiter>
    <runwayTaxiSpeed>29</runwayTaxiSpeed>
    <enableRollthenTakeOff>1</enableRollthenTakeOff>
    <minCrossingRny>2000</minCrossingRny>
    <isGUIVisible>1</isGUIVisible>
    <voidTimer>1000</voidTimer>
    <TaxiSeparationMultiplier>1.8</TaxiSeparationMultiplier>
</Parameters>

 

Unfortunately I don't understand what is wrong in my previous edits. Any idea?

Thanks.

It works now as follows:

    <isGUIVisible>1</isGUIVisible>
    <voidTimer>1000</voidTimer>
    <TaxiSeparationMultiplier>1.8</TaxiSeparationMultiplier>
</Parameters>

But I would like to manipulate between Take off and Landing percentage on 27R/27L.  Any idea?

 

Thanks!

I modified you some capital letters in the parameters that were with errors.

On the probability to assign on the landing or takeoff runways, in you case being two runways, in both they must add 1 (one).

Example probability parameter:
* Runway 27R takeoff: <Probability>0.7</Probability>
* Runway 27L takeoff:  <Probability>0.3</Probability>
                                                      --------
                                                         1.0 (always returns 1)

* Runway 27R landing: <Probability>0.8</Probability>
* Runway 27L landing:  <Probability>0.2</Probability>
                                                         -------
                                                          1.0 (always returns 1)

In case of not adding probability in the parameters, the program will automatically have the following values:

Example probability parameter:
* Runway 27R takeoff: 0.5
* Runway 27L takeoff: 0.5
                                      --------
                                        1.0 (always returns 1)

* Runway 27R landing: 0.5
* Runway 27L landing: 0.5
                                      -------
                                       1.0 (always returns 1)

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
<Parameters>
    <Airport>
    <ICAO>EGLL</ICAO>
    <ActiveTakeOffRunway>
        <Runway>R27L</Runway>
        <Probability>0.6</Probability>
        <EmptyWeightLimit>23000</EmptyWeightLimit>

    <ActiveTakeOffRunway>
        <Runway>R27R</Runway>

padrot, I didn't know the parameters were case sensitive!

Do you know how long does it take AI to change their Landing/Take off runways on the fly by replacing config.xml and pressing Reload XML button? Is there any control over it?

Thank you so much

Edited by Dirk98

Sorry, my mistake I know. Swapping of config.xml is intended primarily for different departure/arrival airports. So my static observation in a departure airport only was quite senseless.. )) 

PS: but still interesting with AIG_AM traffic/ATCAPI and AICompanion, AIFlow and AIGround on a WideClient pc

Well, I have a shortcut on the desktop of the XML config file, there I modify it if necessary during the flight and press the "reload xml" button.

About the time it takes to adjust the AI, let's say to a change in active runways, I haven't done that test yet but it would be interesting to know the behavior of the AI traffic.

tbh I would just set a hotkey in FSUIPC (like ctrl + T) to turn traffic on and off

Chapstick, why would you want to turn traffic off?
