September 9, 201015 yr South in the mountains (Zywiec). 5nm S of EPZR.And that is a beer also, correct?Sorry for severe OFF-TOPIC... :Big Grin:Thanx for your answers!/J /Johan Windh
September 9, 201015 yr The instructions say to install these files DIRECTLY into your FS9 folder.Is this the AIRCRAFT FOLDER or the folder that the aircraft folder resides (the folder directly above)? Well spotted, the instructions are indeed wrong.Rafal... I think he's talking about applying a patch rather than installing airlines, in which case some files do indeed need to be copied manually :)IDW you'll see the different WOA******* folders when you unzip the patch, and they need to be copied into the aircraft folder, overwriting all!Oh - and should you make a special folder in the aircraft folder (named AI or something) to install all the liveries?? - to keep them in a neat place - or just install along with all the other FS9 aircraft.They all need to be in the main aircraft folder, it does get quite crowded in there.

WOW - cool liveries.Now to hunt for some good low frame rate hit FS9 airports :) WilloW (YMHB) flaps2approach.comB737-800 simulator
September 10, 201015 yr Iain,You can find plenty of freeware sceneries here, most of them quite frame-friendly.http://www.freewarescenery.com/fs2004/whatsnew.phpHave fun. Onur K. Visit my FS blog: Clear Right...
September 10, 201015 yr OMG - you can install multiple files with the WOAI installer at one time? LOL - you learn something new every day. After all these years of doing one at a time...THANKS!!!Regards,Scott
September 10, 201015 yr you can install multiple files with the WOAI installer at one time?Yes, you can, Scott. Although I for instance install them in packs, let's say around 10 at most.If I try too many a atime I happen to get errors. But 10 is still 10 times faster tan 1! :(
September 11, 201015 yr Well I just installed everything and threw out my old Traffic2005...And I must say.. I´m STUNNED. This freeware is waaaay much better. The models are beautiful!!! And behave a lot better than before..One Q though... For some reason (I´ve heard copyright on the CRJ??) SAS Denmark and Sweden are not included in WOAI.. And this makes two of my top airports (ESSA and EKCH) pretty empty even at 100% traffic... With no SAS around, these airports are ghost-like.Any ideas on where to find it? Or do I have to install another AI-program and download just SAS?/Johan /Johan Windh
September 11, 201015 yr Johan,You can do this (it will take some time and a few drops of sweat but you will learn a very useful skill of adding traffic on your own):1. Download some current SAS flightplans (e.g. from the AVSIM library)2. Download all necessary liveries (also from AVSIM or FLIGHTSIM libraries) - all that are listed in the aircraft.txt, or even there will be a repaints.txt file inside the zip to direct you to them easily3. Download necessary models - if you don't have them in your Aircraft folder yet4. Download TTools (TrafficTools)5. Put you SAS traffic txt files (aircaft, flightplans and airports) to TTools folder (always put such files there if you create traffic)6. Install all liveries into FS\Aircraft AI folders and assign them to your SAS aircraft.txt - remember to make sure the names within the quotation marks are the same as in the aircraft cfg title for this particular livery, e.g.- in the FS AI aircraft cfg: title=TFS A343 Scandinavian Airlines- so in the SAS flightplans aircraft.txt: AC#1,200,"TFS A343 Scandinavian Airlines"7. CompileA bit complicated as it may seem for the first time, it gets very rewarding soon. :(
September 11, 201015 yr Many thanx!Another question that have come up after checking around.On charter-destinations there´s hardly any traffic at all. But I have installed charter-carriers and traffic set to 100%..any ideas?/J /Johan Windh
September 11, 201015 yr On charter-destinations there´s hardly any traffic at allMake sure that:1. You have good AFCADs for your destination sceneries (airports)2. You have a lot of charter airlines (especially those which fly to that particular destination you're checking)Remember that holiday airports are naver served by as many airplanes as big regular airports plus some of them are rather seasonal.
September 12, 201015 yr Author Looks like my post has helped others too - GREAT....ON a side note, I am VERY IMPRESSED with WOAI - really impressed. Much better than Ultimate Traffic which I had in a previous life.Well done to WOAI.This forum (to which I am new) is also outstanding. Iain WilloW (YMHB) flaps2approach.comB737-800 simulator
September 12, 201015 yr Well there's always MyTraffic 2010, however based on a review a few months ago on PC Pilot, you'll have to buy the boxed version of the package to have them in FS9. The downloadable version is exclusively for FSX use only.

Both these things I have. Take LEIB or LEPA for example.. With Traffic2005 set at 100% they were crammed with charter-AI. At the time..only one at LEIB and a couple at LEPA... :( /Johan Windh
September 12, 201015 yr With Traffic2005 set at 100% they were crammed with charter-AI. At the time..only one at LEIB and a couple at LEPAJohan,I've never had or used Traffic 2005, so I'll be guessing a lot, ok?I think Traffic 2005 might have installed its own AFCADs to airports. So make sure you have uninstalled it completely and better additionallly check with ScanAFD.If you make sure that:- you have only one AF2 file for the airport and- is is designed for the addon airport version you are using and- it is not made for the static aircraft too (many developers give you this choice of AFCADs)then I would say: check you flightplans again.I don't use LEIB but, for instance, my Aerosoft LEPA is quite heavily served.Not all gates are taken of course, but still many.
September 12, 201015 yr I think Traffic 2005 might have installed its own AFCADs to airports.Quite right, Traffic2005 installs about 1500 custom afcads. They are installed to fs9\Scenery\Traffic2005AFD
