fsx-ms Traffic 360 Installation

[Blue Baron 3]

I am still a FSX novice... I am using FSX Gold Edition (W/ Acceleration)...Windows 7 Professional...64 bit. I've just installed Traffic 360, and I'm not seeing any traffic. I am reading the Traffic 360 instructions. It is suggesting the installation of FSX SDK to set up the Traffic Toolbox. Is there anyone on this forum using Traffic 360 with FSX/ Windows 7?

Hello

 

Do you have a T360_ai-traffic.bgl in \Scenery\World\Scenery

 

Did you run the Compile Traffic X Flight Plans  from the Traffic 360 applet. (TrafficControlCentre.exe)

(Traffic Generator & Traffic Movements)

 

How are your Traffic Sliders set in FSX?

 

The Traffic Toolbox is a nice addition and lets you monitor AI traffic.

Hello Kabronicus, I downloaded and ran Traffic X BGL check (from Just Flight), and that cleared up the AI traffic problem. I can now see parked airplanes. However, none of the planes are flying/ moving around on the ground. You mentioned T360_ai-traffic.bgl in  \Scenery\World\Scenery. I don't see it my folders (could it be under another name, such as ai-traffic.bgl?). In addition, I ran the Compile Traffic X Flight Plans...and I don't see T360_ai-traffic.bgl there either. I set the sliders up to 100% but nothing has changed.

Yes, it can be named ai-traffic.bgl, what size does it have.

I'm not on my PC by mine is somewhere around 100,000 to 160,000 kb.

 

When you ran Compile Traffic X Flight Plans, it should have given you an option to name it and place it on \Scenery\World\Scenery. Only keep ONE copy in that folder.

 

If you don't see any movement then select early morning 7:45 am or close to it, place your plane at some busy airport KORD for example. (Sometimes you have to wait a few minutes 5-10)

 

What does the Traffic Toolbox show in explorer (sleeping, enroute, taxiing, etc)

 

A know offender is a FS9 traffic file (can not be mixed with FSX traffic). Is it possible one of your other addons placed one of those FS9 traffic files?

(You can test by moving all other traffic*.bgl's from \Scenery\World\Scenery.)

I am being given the option save as...when I run Compile Traffic X Flight Plans, and select ai-traffic.bgl should I rename it Traffic 360_ai-traffic.bgl?

No need to overwrite, save it as Traffic_360_ai-traffic.bgl, so you know where it came from.

Then just rename the other one to ai-traffic.bgl.OFF

Thank you!

... Everything seemed normal, until this morning. I've noticed some GA airplanes in the schedule (Beech Barons) flying and taxiing around without the fuselage. I see the plane's seats and pilot, but no aircraft body and wings. Any idea what happened?

Not really, sorry.

 

 

You are using FSX right?

That could probably happen if you have the DX10 Preview option enabled, try with that option disabled.

If you want DX10 Preview Enabled, I believe SteveFSX Fixer solves that problem.

 

I don't use FSX anymore, so I can't check that info.

 

Cheers.

Do you think they'll ever update the schedules?
