I have several addon aircraft I wish to turn into AI aircraft flying flight plans I choose.....
Is this possible? If so could some one give me step by step directions or point me to a tutorial!


Thanks

If your using FS2002 or 2004: Traffic Tools v2.02

Create/edit AI flightplans (aka Traffic file) by editing text source files. Excellent help file (Readme.htm) included, which will provide your step by step instructions.

Yes this can be done but I have to warn you converting flyable aircraft into AI is hard on frame rates.
I would highly recomend that you find the same aircraft except AI versions. AI aircraft are made with textures that are frame rate friendly while most flyable aircraft can have a huge hit on frame rates if used as AI. If you search posts in this section you can see the needed entries you need to make to create a flight plan. The steps are not hard but it does require a lot of data for each flight. If you do not allready have TTOOLS you will need that. Try this link it should help

well I would like to do this in FSX......... And the aircraft I want have somewhat lesser quality paint jobs....

http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4746&page=3&highlight=AIFPC--This link is to the discussion forum, at fsdeveloper.com, for the utility named AIFPC, by Peter van der Veen. You'll find the link to download 'AIFPC.zip' in the 4th reply from the bottom (#57-by Garfield X).

AIFPC will compile a TTools set of source .txt files into a traffic.bgl file in either FS9 or FSX format. It will also decompile either FS9 or FSX traffic.bgl files into the TTools source set.

So you'll still use TrafficTools to create your source files and then compile with AIFPC into FSX format.

AIFPC is still in developement so if you have any questions or problems using AIFPC you should ask your questions in the fsdeveloper.com-AIFPC forum.
