June 24, 20169 yr Hello I'm looking at buying my first AI Ad On package for X-Plane. World Traffic 2 and X-life Deluxe seem to be the big ones at the moment (maybe the only ones) World Traffic 2 http://store.x-plane.org/World-Traffic-20_p_226.html X-Life Deluxe http://store.x-plane.org/X-Life-Deluxe_p_472.html From what i can gather...... World Traffic has a lot of Tinkering required to get it up and running and seems to be a finished product (not beta) X-Life Deluxe is still in beta? Hence the price. But has little or no Tinkering required to have you up and running, Only has a couple of Airports working properly at the moment Any opinions would be greatly appreciated and will receive 1 Like and a thank you :smile:
June 24, 20169 yr Cant speak for X-life. Havnt tried it. World Traffic is pretty good, but as you say there is quite a bit of tinkering to get it to function well. That being said, and very big update is in the works and is due to be released "soon" and will automate alot of the "tinkering" that is needed supposedly.

June 24, 20169 yr World Traffic is worth the Tinkering IMHO. 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick
June 27, 20169 yr Author Thank you for the replies. I was looking at a Video of World Traffic 2, It doesn't look that bad to Install after all. Ill probably pick up this

Hi Elaine, I have WT2 installed only, therefore I can't judge XLD. WT2 has an enormous potential if you know where and how to adjust the many settings. A new version, WT2.2 is about to be released this month and should alleviate many things. WT2.x is for AI Traffic only. XLD has (as far as I know) in addition to AI Traffic an ATC control function implemented. Interesting times for x-plane users. Kind regards :smile: Tom Sometimes I have to admit to myself:"Si tacuisses, philosophus mansisses"
June 27, 20169 yr I use 12 AI planes in X-Plane, in combination with the new static AC this seems plausible enough to me. Works great since 10.50b (before it was a nightmare due to the "off course" warnings). I just hope X-Plane will implement "profiles" for AI to easily switch the set of AI planes when you change regions. In terms of World Traffic 2 ... please wake me up when it becomes user friendly and automatic in terms of routes. - Currently giving X-Plane 12.10 a spin on Shadow PC. 10 years with X-Plane now, since 10.20
June 28, 20169 yr In terms of World Traffic 2 ... please wake me up when it becomes user friendly and automatic in terms of routes. That's what I use (WT2), but that time will come only when WOAI reaches the same milestone for FSX. :wink: Producing a viable AI Traffic addon is a bear, no matter what sim we are talking about. Schedules, aircraft and liveries are in a constant state of flux. With most addons, bugs are cleaned up and capabilities are marginally enhanced with new versions. But an AI addon is a far bigger challenge because it is the proverbial moving target.
June 28, 20169 yr After years of tinkering with FS9, FSX, etc. the features in World Traffic that give new meaning to AI for me are military formation flights, overhead breaks and vertical departures. Keith Guillory
