I am having such a hard time trying to load AI traffic ttools 2.02. it gets fustrating. what i do is click the decompile button and it does it right. but then after that what do i do??? i just want to add alot of AI traffic to Los Angeles.


PLEASE SOME HELP.......THANKS

Do you have specific AI planes that you want flying around?

For instance, if you want to make the default 747 fly around you would programming aircraft #6,7,or 8 according to the aircraft.txt file that was produced by the decompile.

You write a flight plan for that aircraft like the instructions say: (should all be one line)
AC#6,N29696,56%,12Hr,IFR,
01:46:21,06:29:27,320,F,2953,KLAX,
07:46:16,12:29:22,310,F,2954,KMCO

Translates to:
aircraft in aircraft.txt,registration, percentage, repeat period, IFR or VFR,
departs kmco @01:46 zulu, arrives @06:29 zulu, flight level 320, uses flight number, flight# 2953, destination klax,
departs klax @07:46 zulu, arrives @12:29 zulu, flight lever 310, uses flight number, flight# 2954, destination kmco

paste your new flight plan to the end of your flightplan.txt file, save, and then recompile.

i dont know how to use traffic tools 2.02. i have tried following the directions but nothing ever happens. i click decompile then it shows 36 aircraft 25,093 flight plans and the airports. after that the instructions say to open flight plans from the decompile but i cant do that. the 3 are always highlighted. and even if i have it highlighted on flight plans and i click it still doesnt open. i must be missing something....besides i dont know much about files anyways.

When you decompile the traffic.bgl file, Traffic Tools creates three text files. 1 is for the aircraft listing, 1 is for the airports list, and the last one is for the actual flightplans.

It's the flightplan textfile that you put your flights in. Once saved you recompile it and go watch them in the simulator

The three files are text files. You can read them with Notepad, Wordpad, or any word processor. The flightplan file is too large for Notepad, usually my Wordpad program opens it. You can try MS Word or Works. You add your new flight plan entries to the end of the file and then resave it, make sure you save it as a .txt file. The 3 files should stay in the same folder as TTools. After you add your flight plans and save, run the recompile utility and then crank up FS to KLAX and see what you got.

The easiest way to add real world liveries, IMO, is with ProjectAI.  Drag and drop...couldn't be easier.
