Does Traffic Global work with P3D v5

Hi chaps,
Sorry for the delay. I've fixed the problem that was causing the compile to hang. However, I've noticed that the TG compiler isn't producing a full size bgl for v5 due to the new format of aircraft files. As such I've pulled the V5 compatibility from the product page whilst I work on a solution.

Hi Rich, Re your previous post above, I am eager to ascertain if you have a timeline for when you will have a solution for TG for p3dv5 where the compile is hanging for a long period of time. thanks

I'm also having this error when compiling traffic.
I've just bought this plugin to be used with P3D v5 and disappointed to see I can't use it.

Any news?

Sorry but the only news currently is that it's still being worked on but as yet not figured out so no v5 compatibility just yet. Apologies.

I've just made the jump from FSX to P3D v5 and am too eagerly awaiting a fix, for this. :slightly_smiling_face:

@Rich Thanks Rich. Please also take into account the new airports added by default in P3Dv5. Doha (OTHH) for example.

Only installed P3Dv5 today most of my ORBX scenery installed but no addon airports yet will start on them today, but I did get TG in with a twist I still have P3Dv4,5 installed on another SSD drive using addon organiser I linked 4,5 TG to V5 you see the default EGCC in the shot.
Some more after adding airports.

Over Gatwick but you can still see London in the distance.

@Ray-Fry Thanks for the tip, but sadly I don't have any p3d versions lower than v5. So I am still waiting for the dev to fix the issue.

Ray Fry

It would be a big plus for JF if they can get TG Compatible with P3DV5, it`s not going to be easy the update has made V5 very picky with adding scenery not as easy as 4.5., it could boost sales though if they can pull it off.

@Rich I'm still not able to compile Cargo traffic, is there anything I should be checking in the config files or something to find a solution for no compile into P3Dv5 please?

Rich

Hi Simon,
Are you able to compile cargo flights on their own? I.e. untick the GA and main flight plans options.

Simon B

@Rich No Rich, I can't get it to compile cargo at all, I just get app not responding and no disk activity for the cargo compile whatsoever.

Rich

And this is v1.1.1.5 you are using?

Simon B

@Rich it is yes.

Ray Fry

Cargo compiler will not run unless you select one of the databases at the top AKA My Flights or Traffic Global Flight Plans, then tick the sim and tick include Cargo Traffic you can untick the rest.

This is what you see after My flights have compiled it then compiles the Cargo flights.
V5 today EGCC preparing for a flight out to EGKK pm PMDG 747-400.

Cargo traffic on the move behind me.

Simon B

@Ray-Fry it does not compile cargo flights, no matter what database I select, it just hangs.

I also have an issue with compiling cargo flights. It runs through the process okay but I end up with a TrafficGlobalCargo.bgl file that is only 10KB.

@bobwad
Hi,
Could you report this issue to the support team please. support@justflight.com
They'll be able to start looking into it and gathering the details we need.
Thanks

P3Dv5 has far more changes in it than were at first appreciated, and LM are still making changes under the hood. Lots of third-party apps are struggling to get and stay compatible with it. It could be a while before it settles down to the point where 3rd-party apps are reliable. I've had it installed since Day 1, and updated at each point that LM have released new files. As my main computer is AMD-based (Ryzen 3900x, Radeon 5700XT) , it really doesn't like v5 and LM still haven't fixed the issues. I'm staying with v4.5 until at least v5.1 is released.

@Rich
Thanks Rich. I've now done that.
