FS Traffic

I think whether the Sim Rate can be sped up depends on the player aircraft. For me, if I use Asobo aircraft or aircraft that are based on Asobo, such as the Salty 747, I can speed up and it works fine with FS Traffic.

However, if I use the FBW A320, speeding up does not work for me, and the same is true for the Headwind A330-900, which is based on the FBW A320.

You need to open the flight plan of the relevant airport where you don't want to see this airline any longer and then delete that airline's flight from that flight plan. You can do that in the FS Traffic Control Center. Happy to elaborate if you're unsure how to do that.

I have a feeling this is rather an Asobo issue than FS Traffic but I'm not sure.

@prdant For me, FS Traffic works very well at e.g. KFJK from inibuilds.

Hi all,

I have both FSLTL and AIG models working through FS Traffic.

I have filled lots of the passenger aircraft liveries that FS Traffic currently does not offer with FSLTL liveries, and the same works where FS Traffic does not have the physical plane, i.e. I'm using FSLTL and AIG models and the respective liveries. This has enabled me to have lots of cargo traffic visible, plus a very important model for me, the Lufthansa A340-300 and A340-600 (both from AIG), which I was very keen to see in the Sim as I usually fly around Germany. See screenshots attached.

I agree with what has been said previously in this thread: Just install FSLTL and AIG as usual and don't copy anything into the FS Traffic library. This won't work because the aircraft libraries from FS Traffic, FSLTL and AIG are all a 'pack' with a layout.json file, i.e. you can't tear the packs apart, they must remain in their original shape. Once installed as usual, link the right aircraft titles in the FS Traffic aircraft manager. For me, this worked.

You don't have to install FSLTL and AIG into your community folder. If you use MSFS Addon Linker or a similar program, you can install them wherever you wish and then link them through MSFS Addon Linker. This works for me, too.

If you don't see any of the aircraft that you linked appear, it may can have different reasons. First, check you have installed FSLTL and AIG correctly. Second, check you have definitely copied the exact title of the aircraft as it is in the relevant aircraft.cfg. Don't include the quotation marks in the FS Traffic aircraft manager. Third, make sure the flight plan of the relevant airport actually has the airplanes that you want to see included in it. If not, you need to modify the flight plan, which is an easy thing to do. It's outlined in the manual. Fourth, you must obviously start your flight at a time where the aircraft you're hoping to see would be parked at the airport, according to the flight plan. It may help to set the timer in the FS Traffic options menu from 90 minutes to 180 minutes, this makes airports generally much busier. Fifth, and this is something that's difficult to remediate, AI aircraft sometimes don't spawn because the airport parking positions haven't been programmed well enough (i.e. aircraft radius too small - there are other threads on this in this forum, just search for 'radius').

Hope this helps, happy to elaborate.

@art_p Really looking forward to this. This is a problem at many airports, including, e.g. EDDF Frankfurt Premium Deluxe version or WSSS Changi from Cloudsurf Asia Simulations.

@mabeco Those are the current versions of the packages for FS Traffic. There is an update due soon but it’s not available at present.

@rich Thank you very much :)

@trailerswift89
It will be fixed in the forthcoming update.

@derek thanks I have put in a ticket. I also noticed that the product is not in the community folder. That is probably why it doesn’t show in the sim.

@art_p Thanks. Looks like it did install on my chosen drive after all.

@myndighetene +1000 votes for this feature!

@hunterdouglas The problem is not FS Traffic. Apparently there is a database of airlines in FS Traffic, and since NWA does not exist anymore, it is not recognized. Since Northwest was absorbed by Delta, perhaps you should use DAL instead of NWA for this aircraft.

Great to hear that new liveries are in the works. In the meantime I have assigned airlines without liveries to various GA aircraft in areas where I fly. Creates a nice GA environment. It would be nice to have a nice selection of frame-rate friendly GA models to use as fall-back aircraft for this purpose.

Question for JustFlight: When there are multiple liveries listed for one airline aircraft, what determines which livery appears?

@cbalow Hi try this it's a 747 wingspan problem

what i did was go into the380 and 747 files and changed the a380 wingspan from 262.5 to 197 which is the same as the787
the 747 is 224.5 so you might want to also change that to 197

@art_p
Hi Art,
You should have nearly 30 liveries showing in that AT7 file.
I've sent you a direct message with a working version of that file and instructions where to drop it.

@rich Stability of generating traffic at arrival would be great!!
