Frustration on adding flightplans.

[Omag 2.0]

Hi all... a very frustrated Omag here...

This evening I tried to install a non-pai flightplan with aia models.

After a painstaking 4 hours, I finally managed to put together the necessary files to compile a flightplan. Nothing was ok from the first time.

Airport file: just codes, no position
Aircraft, no speed and no name
Flightplan: used airports that weren't in the airport file.

Anyhow, I corrected everything and it compiled!

Now, I'd like to see if I got the intended result. But I can't see the darn planes!

A part of the flightplan:

OMDB,2/16:20:00,2/22:22:54,310,F,126,EBOS,3/06:25:00,3/09:06:15,300,F,323,

How do you see when the plane is at EBOS? is it at 06:25 every third day of the week?

And in the aircraft file I needed to state the type of plane. Should that name be linked to the model you use?

Omag... in desperate need for a good AI-tutorial on adding flightplans and third party models.

Your flightplan should like this:

AC#1,55L,20%,2Hr,VFR,00:30:00,TNG00:46:00,036,R,0123,OMDB,02:30:00,02:45:00,150,F,0123,OMDB

This will have your #1 Aircraft doing circuits at Dubai.

Start off slowly.

P.S. The EBOS(Ostend, Belgium)-OMDB should look like this:
AC#1,OMAG5,19%,WEEK,IFR,4/07:58:57,4/00:00:00,260,F,0041,OMDB,0/12:58:00,1/00:00:00,250,F,0042,EBOS
(Departs Ostend Wednesday at 07:58 Zulu)

Below is a sample screenshot showing how the three TTools *.txt files should be written:

Just to make sure:

I didn't write the flightplan... I downloaded it.

If you have a boeing 747-200 in several liveries ( same airline), should those different liveries be treated as several airplanes? In other words, make an aircraftline for every livery in the aicraft-file?

Thanks,

Omag


Seems I've downloaded the mother of all flightplans... lol... should teach me a lot if I get it working...

Nevermind, I got them working... As I thought I had to make an aircraft entry for each livery and change the AC-numbers in the flightplans... now they show!

Afcad now... it just doesn't stop!  ;D
