Help needed for AI Ships setup

Hi,

I am in the urgent need of help.

Searching now for weeks and little progress. We run FS2002, but as manny simmers use AI Ship in FS9 too, I hope to find a solution by them... so please read further, especially those who make their Afcads and flightplans themselves... as the makers of such beautifull items.

When we run the AI Jetfoil (and other ships) we do see the effects, but no wake at all.
Hope some simmers who are running AI Ships too can help us further.
We need an exact example setup of the Afcad, the settings in TTOOLS, perhaps there is a fault inside the .cfg-file of those ships. Maybe the sea level and centerpoint altitude settings must be set right... but how ?
A screenshot of the Afcad-file, your own AI ship or AI Jetfoil can maybe help us.

On this screenshot our problem: on the right side the AI Jetfoil, having some effects and no wake at all. The Jetfoil at the left side, is the Jetfoil I am using to observe the AI. Even if I fly over the AI Jetfoil, still no wake to see.

Thanks anyway. Jos

Hi Bourgoinie

Good screen shot. in regards too the wake effects not showing on the second jetfoil  this seems to be correct in the sence that' the effects for the second vessels do not show' when running two of the same, and at the same time. i find that too be true.as i have the same thing happening when i run two of the same models together. however if i do flightplans for different vessels running on the same AFCAD lines' which by the way' i use the green apron connector to create the shipping lane' at 1ft wide no lines or lights. then the wake effects for the different vessels always show' even thought they are sailing together  so it seems that its in the vessels cfg files. if you have the Garwood cruiser then the wake and bow wave effects run for all of them together no matter what, and very nice xmas lights as well on all of them. i am running fs9. I hope that explains you missing wake effects for you. message me if you wish' will help all that i can.  

Cheers

Frank.

Hi,

We succeed in adding a wake for the Jetfoil and made even a proper repaint for the beautifull town of Ostend in Belgium.  ;D
