Traffic Global Early Access, P3D V5 version available

[Chock 17,769]

As per the title, a V5 installation for Traffic Global is available Version Number 1.1.1.5. It can be found on the EA forum, where you should download it from, JF accounts are still showing the old version. Link here

Thanks for the HU Chock.
I'm hesitant, but Will try installing it again. Perhaps this version works as expected.

I have a huge FPS drop when I use this product in w/ v4.  Will someone please let me know how it performs in v5.

Thanks.

Chock and others, did you have previous version installed and just run the new installer over it ?

I uninstalled first

It speaks volumes that this is still early access for P3D when the XP version is not, despite being launched 1-2 years later. TG ruined AI traffic for me in P3D 4.5, I have hardly any traffic at my airports at all. I won't install it in any future flight sim.

Wait, wasn't this already available for v5 a while back?

I'm sure I installed it when v5 was new, regretted the decision and got rid of it ASAP.

Chock, it may be a new version, but Traffic Global was definitely available for P3D v5 a month or so back. From my 18/04/2020 comment on this forum:

It is a horrible mess. I just reinstalled it. I had forgotten how bad it is.

Bought on release, wrecked P3D, necessitated a complete reinstall.

Just reinstalled it now. It thinks its on the author's computer, so goes looking for files in his OneDrive folder!!

Support forum is locked down and hard to access even of you have bought the program. Early access is fine, but not if devs communicate poorly.

This is the single worst piece of software I have ever had the displeasure of purchasing for a flight simulator. Avoid it like the plague, and I am talking about a really bad plague here, not just an average ebola-type plague.

JustFlight, if you are reading this, I am willing to pay YOU $20 to remove this piece of trash from my computer (which is what I am trying to do right now, as my P3D install is once again riddled with errors).

In case my comment is a little unclear on what my true feelings are on this piece of "software", DO NOT BUY TRAFFIC GLOBAL. IF SOMEONE GIVES IT TO YOU AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT, GIVE IT BACK AND DO NOT INVITE THEM TO YOUR NEXT BIRTHDAY.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, if this is a new version, how is it in P3D v5? If you got it for your birthday, would you now be any happier than I was when I posted this a month back. 🙂

Yup, tried that one and it would not work for me. This one does. So I've been using V5 up until now with only the default traffic, which is not great as we know.

P3D has default traffic?? 🙂

I've been using either AIG (now v5 compatible and free) or UT Live (v5 compatible), both of which are good options.

Traffic Global seems to be perennially problematic, if it's better than the other options in some way let us know but it all just seems like too much hassle and risk at this stage.

This is an awesome surprise! Loaded it up and there is traffic everywhere! Downloaded and installed within just a few minutes, checked several airports and everything looks great. One thing I can’t figure out is why no traffic ever populates at the newer OMAA terminals (Simbreeze). This has always been an issue even in P3d v4. I can live with it though. 

Cheers, Pete
