Traffic Global for X-Plane 11

This does sound odd. Network operation is definitely tested and even works across platforms (Win/Mac). As long as both ends are the same version and both licensed it really should just work. The most likely problem is that it's being blocked by a firewall. Contact support and we can work through it in detail.

Update - have had a second report of this so I'll definitely be looking into it next week.

There are a number of custom views that follow individual AI aircraft, but X-plane's own won't because X-Plane is unaware of any externally-created aircraft. You can choose what aircraft to follow by clicking on one in the flight schedule board, on the radar, on the flight plan view or selecting one on screen, or using the standard X-Plane next/previous AI. There's much more detail in the manual.

Not sure what you mean here? The active runway is available from the flightpath view, and from the comms system if you're trying to find out what the active currently is. For defining what the rules are that affect the choice, they come from X-Plane's flow definitions so that no additional rules are required for it to work. There's no integration with VATSIM firstly because they don't offer a way of doing this, but more because it doesn't fit. VATSIM adds its own aircraft which will be completely unaware of TG aircraft so they just don't fit in the sim at the same time. Using their active doesn't work because TG's traffic won't match VATSIM's.

This file was missed from the distribution - already fixed for the future. First, you don't have to edit this to get GA aircraft, all it's for is changing the balance of flights towards training activities instead of point to point private flights.

The file is a very simple two-column CSV file which goes into the same folder as the .bgl traffic database. I can't attach a file here but the first column is the ICAO code, the second column is the word "include" or "exclude", and there is a header row which is ignored.

The easiest way to get the active keyboard shortcuts is to check X-Plane's keyboard assignments, they're all listed in there and you can change them if you like.

@jimkeir said in DISABLE WHEN ON VATSIM???:

You can use X-Plane's plugin manager to just disable TG whenever you want.

thx mate!!

Re-download and reinstall the update as per instructions in release notes. If that still doesn't fix it, contact JF support.

Strange - working fine now - must have been no traffic at GCTS Tenerife - now in UK on route EGPH Edinburgh - I have company?

Hello,
I've submitted a support ticket for this as well as I used up all my activations. I've now disabled Insider Previews. I also observed a massive FPS hit when Traffic Global 'deactivates' itself, at ORBX EGLC, my FPS went from 30 FPS to 44 FPS when I disabled the 'deactivated' plugin. Just waiting now for my activation count to be reset.

Yes, it's a known bug in the timezone handling of the last release. The workaround for now is to add a 15-minute manual timezone offset in the flight config. It's dependent on very specific combinations of flight time settings, longitude range and DST.

This is the place for Traffic Global X-Plane, it's a completely separate product. Try at https://community.justflight.com/category/60/traffic-global-p3d-fsx .

@ZeroHour When we produce updates we also send the new files to the third parties, it's then down to how soon they update their version and whether or not they let all current owners know of the update. At Just Flight we do that, not sure all third parties do the same. Hope that helps.

@Scottish-Wings said in TG Update and Currently Installed Liveries:

Assuming they have the same file names, they will be over written. This is my experince with a few I created. When I updated, my versions went back to the default and I had to re add.

Yes. I think it overwrote the ones they added from xplaner etc., which is what I wanted - the most recent livery updates. Ones I added that werent updated were still in the folders and weren't deleted.

@cbcdesign

2.08 isn't out yet. You'll just have to be patient :-)

@jrgorton

Your best bet would be to contact Just Flight support.

ok thx i will do that

@jimkeir Hello,

I am using the native resolution at 2560x1080. I assume I have the latest version of TG as I bought yesterday night.

Thank you for the suggestion though. Much appreciated.

lol, I guess that is what I get for not reading the release notes... thanks!
