Sampa Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 So, getting fed up with the empty textures in the current freeware ai package I am using and am wondering, is Ultimate Traffic Live worth the $45 I would need to get it? 1+1=cow :p "WE jumped out a WINdow!" -Baymax (from Big Hero 6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorgen.s.andersen Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Why not build your own AI traffic from AIG and MAIW (for starters)? Tons of stuff available out there for free. Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jorgen mostly due to lack of full time in the day to accomplish the feat while still finding enjoyment in the game. 1+1=cow :p "WE jumped out a WINdow!" -Baymax (from Big Hero 6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leuen Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) Building an own AI traffic with some legs is ok, but a world wide one? Sorry, that's quite utopic! Regarding UTL, the statistic screenshot at Aerosoft site seems showing no European traffic. So be careful.

Bernard I will make note of that. but, given that the date shown in the stats, I would find that evidence as questionable at best... (2006-2007). In any case, this is an example of what I am getting frustrated with using my free AI Traffic package: 1+1=cow :p "WE jumped out a WINdow!" -Baymax (from Big Hero 6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorgen.s.andersen Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Leuen, allow me to quote: "Building an own AI traffic with some legs is ok, but a world wide one? Sorry, that's quite utopic!" No, it is not. Over the years I have collected almost 7,000 AI flight plans, with AI airline, military, business and GA aviation all over the world. Those flight plans are "populated" by nearly 120 GB of AI aircraft. Jorgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flattermann Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I made about 1,000 trafficfiles for my FSX - without the ships traffic files which are about 2,000 incl. the files from Henrik Nielsen and from myself. It is for me the best way to fill the regions I am used to fly with AI-traffic. Visiting this areas I never met a plane I doesn't like or a overcrowded airport. Finding a airport without traffic I made some for my own. Why should I purchase a ready traffic? I think (for me!) it would be boring. So I have enough to do with my beloved hobby:cool: happy landings! Christian:pilot: Intel i5-6600K CPU @ 3.50GHZ, 4 Kerne, 16 GB MSI RX 480; M.

And member "Sampa" is obvisouly searching for a suitable world wide package and not just pattern flights. Furthermore it probably should be more or less actual. Not very easy.

dogdish Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 So, getting fed up with the empty textures in the current freeware ai package I am using and am wondering, is Ultimate Traffic Live worth the $45 I would need to get it? I hear ya... time is limited. I have barely enough time to install user aircraft and fly them so I always just get payware traffic ai. I have UTL for FSX, works good, crashes sometimes when I close FSX. They are working on a V2 that will natively install to P3Dv5 with a free upgrade. Regarding the missing texture in you posted picture: You can just locate that particular model and examine the aircraft folder to see why the textures don't load.

Sampa Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 Thank you all for your thoughts. I have thought about it, and spoke with a few youtubers, and read all your comments and decided to go ahead and get UTL. Thank you all for the help! 1+1=cow :p "WE jumped out a WINdow!" -Baymax (from Big Hero 6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdish Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Did you get UTL yet? I just wanted to complicate your decision by making a comparison to Traffic 360 (I have both). The aircraft in UTL are more of a hodgepodge collection where as the aircraft in Traffic 360 seem more refined. I made a flight into Guantanamo Bay, Cuba with Traffic 360. There were C-130's and fighter aircraft taking off and landing. In UTL, NOTHING! Just one example but I think Just Flight has a more robust AI program with the latest version, Traffic Global (Still early release) which I plan to get for FS2020 if and when it becomes available.
