jagjockey Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Hello to all. I have no AI airborne traffic in FSX. I have tried all the sliders but made no difference. There are stationary aircraft at airports. But no quaue of a/c waiting for take-off or already flying. I have reinstalled the whole program 3 times. But still the same. Any help would be appreciated. TIA. Regards, Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Are you using any type of 3rd party program for AI or just the default? Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagjockey Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 No just out the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 No just out the box. In your FSX/Scenery/World Scenery folder do you see the trafficAircraft.bgl file? Do you see any other aircraft traffic files? Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagjockey Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 2 folders: Texture - full of bmp files Scenery - about 30 bgl files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 2 folders: Texture - full of bmp files Scenery - about 30 bgl files OK, but the one that puts AI traffic at the airports and controls their movements is the one to look for. It's probably there because you get AI parked at the airport. I just wonder if you are flying at the same times as their flight plans? While flying, have you done a right-click and scrolled to Traffic and seen any AI traffic listed? Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

jagjockey Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 Ok.. Sat at CDG in France, midday. Only 2 parked aircraft at the gates. Nothing else, let alone moving. Right click brings up a list of 5 aircraft. Selecting each one in turn it says they are all 0.1 miles from me at approx 30k ft. But they cannot be seen whilst in the game. They are more than 0.1mls from me in a vertical line :)) Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Interesting! It's been a while since I used default as AI. I know that midday at most airports is not the best time. I have found the best time is around dusk near major airports for traffic spotting. With my many WOAI packages, it's like fireflies in the sky. My AI airline slider is at 55%.

jagjockey Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 Ok.. Same place. 20:00hrs. summer time. All buildings and lighting are ok. But...not a single vehicle or aircraft on the ground. No flying aricraft at all. It's a good one :))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Sorry, I am at a loss as to why you have a lack of traffic. The only thing I can think of is a lone FS9 traffic.bgl, maybe from an old install of WOAI, or the like, causing it. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

jagjockey Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 I might try and delete all the bgl files. Then do a repair install. Can only hope :)) Thanks for your help. Regards, al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 go to a large airport, park, and wait. It takes a while for the traffic to start doing things. Wait at least 15 to 30 mins. Do this at dusk, so you see aircraft in the distance better. They will have lights on. Set the 'level of detail radius' to 'Large" in fsx-settings-display. And again, do you have file: TrafficAircraft.bgl in folder: ...\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\World\Scenery ? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musky Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 If you have 'aircraft cast shadows' selected.... then deselect it. Might be your problem. FSX does not like AI aircraft in addon scenery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagjockey Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Hi. Thanks for the replies. sorry for dealy from me, work called. I have done what the last two posts asked and it has made no difference. There are NO files in the location. I flew around Heathrow at dusk. There were not even any parked aircraft. Thanks. aL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 There are NO files in the location. This is a screenshot of my FSX/Scenery/World/Scenery folder. I have lots of WOAI traffic files, but the one that you need is highlighted with an arrow pointing at it. If you don't have this file, then no moving traffic for you. You may just be seeing Static AI at the airports. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagjockey Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Nope, not a single file in that directory. When I tried Heathrow a short while ago I didn't have a single static ac either. I'll completely uninstall and reinstall again and see what happens. Although I have done this before. I'll be back in awhile. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleernest Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I see that file. What do I do next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 trafficAircraft.bgl contains all the default fsx trafficplans. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
