    Hi,
    Are you able to successfully load them as flyable aircraft in the sim? If so then as long as you have the following flag set in the [fltsim.x] sections of the aircraft.cfg, "canBeUsedByAITraffic = 1", then you should be able to utilise them as AI in FS Traffic.

    The canBeUsedByAITraffic flag will likely need to be added as it did not exist in P3D.
    Another new flag that is required is isUserSelectable = 1

    I'm afraid this falls outside the scope of FS Traffic, as the program doesn't assist with the conversion of aircraft to MSFS, only utilising aircraft that are available in the sim.
    Converting an aircraft from P3D to MSFS is more complicated than just dropping the files into the MSFS folders. They need to have been processed through the package builder so that they have a valid manifest file etc. There are plenty of ways that the packaging call fall over, so I would suggest studying the output logs to see if it highlights the issue.
