NimbleCat Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Recently the scenery.cfg in my FSX somehow went blank, but I had a backup so I easily fixed it. However, I noticed that after I fixed the scenery.cfg, not much AI planes show up, and I have my AI traffic in max settings. Do I have to redownload the AI traffic packages? Or is there any way to fix this? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mallcott Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Is anyone going to reply? Not without additional info. You mention AI traffic packages but completely fail to mention which one. So yes, you do have to reinstall everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longbreak754 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 ..........I noticed that after I fixed the scenery.cfg, not much AI planes show up, and I have my AI traffic in max settings............ A missing or corrupted scenery.cfg file is highly unlikely to mess up your actual AI as AI flight plans are stored in a .bgl file format AND, if you use the standard default practice, are stored in a different location than the scenery.cfg. Whilst you would see AI disappear when you have a scenery.cfg problem it is only because the actual location(s) of the stored traffic .blg files are referenced in the .cfg file. Replacing the corrupted file with a backup should have resolved the problem. I would check to see what traffic files you have in the FSX\Scenery/World/Scenery folder - this the default location so if you place them elsewhere check both locations. I would also check the format of any you find as a single FS9 (FS2004) formatted file will kill all other FSX traffic files. If unsure as to what format they are in, use AIFP to check/validate them and then re-compile them. Regards Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
