Ultimate Traffic vs My Traffic

Featured Replies

Hi,Can anyone give me there opinion in this matter???Kind regards :)Mattias SjolundBAV 1188

I have My Traffic, and use it whenever I am not online. I quite like it.Very simple to install, no schedules to draw up, no extra downloads of plane models or voicepaks, and it has military as well as GA planes as well. The commercial traffic is simulated, IOW appropriate for the airport, but does not exactly model actual flights. For example I landed in Zurich yesterday, it was full of Swissair planes. Also saw a Delta tri-jet.If you are more interested in showing exact commercial traffic, and mainly the spamcans, then I understand that UT does the job better. It allows you to program exact airline schedules. But I don't actually use UT, so perhaps someone else can comment.* Orest-~~~~~~~~~Orest Skrypuchwww.united-virtual.comUAL1445 Staff ORDFO

Orest,Thank you so much... Just the answer i was looking for.Kind regards/mattias

I have UT and apart from a couple of problems, it

I have used Ultimate Traffic for over a year. I have never used EditVoicePack or had problems with missing airlines. Do you run the updates periodically ?

Hello Mattias,I think UT is more beautiful. You see real world flightplans.YOu can sit on an airport an look around whats going on. But to get it 100% lookalike you have to do some work for it. I like it. It's about to get the right aircraft paints to all the airports you visit (not to complicated, but it will cost you some time). I also have used My Traffic. It's less complicated en looks good. In My Traffic there is a lot more AI traffic modelled. IN UT there are only default plains for GA traffic. But for now my favourite is UT. Perheps I buy My Traffic for military flights, as a supplement for UT that doesn't provide military traffic.Herman (EHGG)

I'm not sure about the updates you refer to, but if its the schedules then the latest that I

Ultimate traffic is great

Regarding the GA_traffic setup, does that work in conjunction with UT? Am I supposed to disable GA traffic in UT and under FS9 settings?

Hi Rob,Combining Markus Brunner's GA-Traffic with UT seems the natural way to go. You do not necessarily need to disable the default GA AI, but normally people do. Then use UT for your commericial AI flights. And GA-Traffic for the GA AI traffic. (BTW GA-Traffic is near payware quality. But, thanks to Markus Brunner, it is free!)(You can find support at http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=205. In recent months, however, that forum has been pretty quiet--presumably most folks have GA-Traffic running well on its own.)Good luck with your AI. And be careful: installing and running is addictive!Best,Mike

Thanks Mike,Yes, I am now officially addicted to AI after getting UT. I held off buying UT for a long time but now that I have it, I really shouldn't have waited this long. What a great add-on.

Learned alot from the tread here.Mark.

I use MyTraffic as it was more what I wanted. 1... more flights but not interested in real-world flight plans2... more airports and smaller airports have traffic3... apparently simler plane models for supposedly better frame-rate4... GA traffic 5... military traffic Here's a shot of military AI at Edwards Air Force Base in CAhttp://www.the-airfield.com/screenshot_gal...1/YAFSS_002.jpgWith the latest upgrade I notice more B1900's at smaller airpots which is cool. Even Georgian Air which I flew on a few times from Toronto.I have read that Ultimate Traffic has better models and realistic real-world flight plans. It might be the choice of people who like the larger airports and commercial flights wereas MyTraffic is more of an all-round trafficAnyway , that's my take on things. It's really up to what the user wants. It's sortof like apples and oranges ....it depends on if you like apples or oranges better ;-) .

Ive had MT since the first version... and like it as I fly mostly to military and GA fields... Ive also added GA-traffic, and as it can convert some military aircraft to AI it reduces the size an improves Frame Rates... When flying to strictly GA fields, I turn off all Commercial Traffic in the Flight SIM, that leaves me with improved frame rates, and still significant traffic at GA and Military fields. If I remember correctly, have 87 aircraft in GA-Traffic for AI flights... At KFUL, which is a field 1.8 miles from me, where the approach goes right above me, added 100 parking spots with AFCAD. Normally I can count at least 35-50 aircraft in them at most times of the day.
