  1. Hi, I just purchased this but after trying it out I have some questions. It looks great but these things are bothering me. What is the difference in spotty view and ai traffic? when I load the map and click on an airplane what view do I use? How can I stop the plane from jumping around? it's very distracting and really takes away the fun. The dox says turn down your fps but I have not found a way to do that. Which is the best way to watch an ai plane fly from gate to gate. Do I use the fstl traffic board, spotty view or ai planes button? Why do some planes just disappear into thin air? I was following a plane and then it just stopped and I had to reload spotty How can I use the keyboard to change the angles. When I am in spotty mode the plane view is distorted and I want to be able to zoom in and out or up and down. In spotty mode I can't move the camera at all and in ai planes view I can't fully move the camera either. That seems to be the big ones for me for now. I really would appreciate any help thanks
  2. wow, can you show us exactly how you did this. I have stayed away from the game for over a year because I could not do this. Is this some kind of new program because I have not kept up with add on programs. Thank you
  3. so, I discoved that I have the same problem. I haven't played msfs in months so i decided to start again. My first stop was to run aigm my old favorite. I knew there would be an update but those don't usually cause problems. it first said my folder location was too long but I already had that fixed, then it said I can change the location but the program immediately closes. I read this thread and I took out the beta in the folder and made sure the manifest file was correct. I go into my aigm program and everything is gone. It tells me to setup everything again. There is no way that I am going to download all those plans again so there needs to be something I can do. I still have the traffic and sim objects folder on the computer folders so that must help. I have been with you since the beginning but this is something that is going to make me jump ship. You guys have always been helpful in the past and I am hoping for some help once again.
  4. Hi guys, I have not played MSFS in months and I wanted to know if there is anything new available for ai traffic and planes? My specific questions are as follows: 1. Is there a program that would allow me to follow an ai plane from gate to gate without actually flying it myself? 2. Are there any new camera programs that allow me to plane spot at airports without moving with the keyboard keys? 3. Are there any new ai plane models available that can be flown by the simulator? 4. Any new traffic programs or utilities/tools? They can be free or paid for but I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars, thank you
  5. Hello everyone, I am a huge ai plane spotter and even though the ai system is terrible, I still would like to watch planes. I would like the ability to place a camera near a runway and have it track the airplanes that pass by. It would also be great if the camera would track the next ai automatically. I would be able to watch the camera track planes as they arrive and depart. I don't really need an expensive program that changes cockpit views and recording options because that's not of interest to me. This was available in P3DV4 but I would like to have this in MSFS too. I hope I am explaining it correctly. I haven't installed MSFS yet but I think it's time to test the waters and having the tracking ability would make it an easy choice. Thank you
  6. I can't send an email because that email is not working for me so I just sent a help request on the website.
  7. I bought it at simmarket and I will send you my order info. I would love to use a newer version because maybe that helps. I was able to install fine so I don’t think it’s a bad install. Is there a tutorial for setting up the stationary camera because the documentation didn’t really help me. Then again maybe the new version will fix everything 😉
  8. Hi, I am using the 3.04.b01 version. I have been combing through you tube videos for help but they are using a different (older?) version. Yes I would like to able to sit near the runway and watch the planes come in. If I remember from before the camera would follow the airplane as it arrives and then automatically switch to the next airplane arriving. I remember spending hours just watching planes arriving. But the follow function is not working for me. I can see all my airplanes in the list but if I click follow nothing happens in the sim. Also if I click the camera pod button I get an unhandled exemption and if I click the stationary button it puts me into the ocean which is strange when I am flying in colorado.in the older videos they just clicked on an ai and it showed up in the game. Is there a way to get that older version instead of the newer one. I am using P3D V4.5 and I installed the proper version so I don't know what else to check.
  9. Hello, I recently came back to P3D V4 and I am getting all my addons back in order. It's been a while so I need a refresher course on AI Tracker X for P3D V4. I installed correctly but it's not working for me. I want to be able to sit at a runway and watch all the planes flyby. I see all the ai traffic in the list but if I click follow AI it doesn't show anything in the game itself. There is a follow window popup but clicking on any of the options doesn't result in anything either. I have the aitrackerx selected in the vehicle menu but I just can't get anything to view. the one thing is that if I click on the camera pod I get an unhandled exemption message so that's definitely a problem. I know this can be done because I used to have it before and it worked great but now I seem to have forgotten how this program works. I would appreciate any help or advice thanks.
  10. It turns out that I was trying an even older version that I had. There have been several versions of many sceneries and I bought them all. So I tried the newest MMMX scenery and so far it works exactly like you explained. You saved me again and I thank you
  11. I tried to install but I don't get the separate folders rather than a bunch of bgl's that I don't know how to add to the scenery entries. It won't let me add the bgl's to the scenery entries. Is there some different way to do this?
  12. Hi guys, I recently came back to P3D V4 and have been working hard to get all my add ons working but I need help with one. Its Taxi2Gate MMMX that was made for FSX but It was working with P3D. I swore that I bought another MMMX from a different company that was great but can't remember which one. I have read the tutorial on how to get MMMX working in P3D V4 but the steps did not work for me due to not having three folders that need to be added to the scenery library. I was wondering if anyone has any advice to get this working. I don't mind paying again for a working MMMX but I can't find one? Thank you.
  13. Ok, thank you. I will work on that
  14. yes, I have traffic working because of the file changes. So far it works in STB because when I compile I can see the airline package names from the scenery/world/scenery folder. When I was in the traffic manager I downloaded the zipped airline package files and then when I installed them using the manager I had to point to those zipped airline files on a folder on my computer. I hope I did it correctly because I'm sure you will tell me that there was a much easier way and I could have saved hours of time. Which is pretty much the way things go for me. Thanks again
  15. Well that was fun. I took your suggestion and replaced my aifp traffic files with the bgl ones. It took a long time but I think it will be worth it. The million dollar question is can i delete all the zipped traffic files if they are now in the program? In the past you couldn't do a single small thing with the files otherwise you have to start everything over. It would be just to save some computer space if I could put them on a zip drive if needed later. Thanks again
