New ATC and Airport Operations Application Testing

Well, the answer is just above your post. 😉 But yes, you will still need AIFlow or FS AI Separation, with the latter being a bit less aggressive and allowing more arrivals.

sorry, silly of me, I didn't notice the answer for some reason.
I am using P3Dv5, and I understand AI Separation will not work?

I've not yet observed this issue, maybe it is airport specific or you have a faulty config.xml. Did you observe it at every airport?

It's every airport. Example config... the only thing I change between airports is the ICAO and runways.

I don' see any obvious mistake. Maybe you should add probabilities.

<Probability>1.0</Probability>

But this was not necessary in former versions. But who knows ...

No problem. 🙂

For P3Dv5 you can use the following tools for separation:
AI Flow
AI Aircraft SID and STAR Controller
F.S. AI Separation (fsaisv1.1.zip)

Feature wise, I do like AI Flow the most. However, the separation is a bit too aggressive. Thus, only few arrivals will reach the airport. Maybe Roland @Clipper Ocean Spray could have a look at this again in the future?

For plain separation, I do like F.S. AI Separation the most. It does still work with P3Dv5 as long as you have a free copy of FSUIPC installed. Moreover, with many changes to ICAO identifiers it does make sense to update the airport database. A replacement can be downloaded here:
https://www.alpha-india.net/forums/index.php?topic=21541.msg231340#msg231340

On my PC, I do use ATCAPI, AI Flow, AI Ground, and F.S. AI Separation at the same time for different purposes.

Hi,

do you use AI Aircraft SID and STAR Controller in P3D?

I have been using it in FSX (now i'm on P3D v4.5)  and it works great (v 1.3 if i remember correctly) especially sid and star operations.

I have it on my disk somewhere. Do Do you have any advice on how to properly set it to work with ATCAPI, AI Flow, AI Ground.

I also didn't know that F.S. AI Separation works in P3D, or I can also ask for settings. If that's not a problem, what settings do you use in ATCAPI, AI Flow, AI Ground?

Best regards

Grzegorz

I'm still using AI Controller 1.4B with P3Dv4.5 and FSUIPC 6 and it works fine. Should work with v5 as well. Not tested because I have not switched my AI setup to v5 yet.

Do You use it together with ATCAPI, AIFlow? How do You set AI Controller and it's posible to use it as sid/star operation and leave rest to ATC API etc?

I'm also using V4.5.

Happy to see another user of 1.4B!

I have been having some difficulty getting mine to work recently - Can you send me a copy of your settings? I have the sids/stars all downloaded etc. 

Thank you in advance. I suppose you could paste it in here but a pm would suffice too

I used it along with ATCAPI but not with 1.0.0.5 yet. Not tested with AIflow along. I'm too busy at the moment and did not started P3D at the last few weeks.

Sure. I have a couple of sid/stars installed but these settings are in use for LAX. Might not work at other airports.

Hi Guys:

Does anybody has the old version of AIGround? Or where I can download it, cant find it on the web. I need the .ini file to do some tests.

Thanks in advance for your time and help.

No Problem at all, Grzegorz! But I should point out that I fly on VATSIM if I do want control. The rest of the time, I do use the sim for AI spotting. If you fly with offline ATC and Ai, than AI Flow might could replace F.S. AI Separation. But as I said, I found the separation with AI Flow too aggressive. Aircraft will end up in the hold but do not get released.

That's a strange one!

All I have done with P3Dv5 is updating the airport file with the one I linked to AIG. Everything else is running nicely with FSUIPCv6 and Windows 10. You could check for a NET Framework update just in case.

But I uploaded you my airport files just in case, as the error is referring to an entry in the Airports_FS2004.csv. Try to replace it:

Hi Guys:

Does anybody has the old version of AIGround? Or where I can download it, cant find it on the web. I need the .ini file to do some tests.

Thanks in advance for your time and help.

Hey Tony!

You can find AIGround in the AVSIM library: aiground_v110.zip

Just make sure to deactivate the following features in AIFlow/AIGround for compatibility with ATCAPI:
 

AILANDINGBRAKINGSCALAR=1.0

AILANDINGTARGETTIME=0

Hi, Thanks Christoph, what i want is an older version than 1.10 if available (1.0.1), what i want to do is de-activate the flaps deploy for take off in AIGround, as all the models converted from my team already has flaps for T/O. 

Was AI traffic spotting yesterday and saw an strange behavior of the flaps during pushback and the begining of taxi.

Sent an email to Roland long time ago with no response.

Have a nice day.

Sorry Guys for not getting back earlier! It was a very busy week.

 

No Problem at all, Grzegorz! But I should point out that I fly on VATSIM if I do want control. The rest of the time, I do use the sim for AI spotting. If you fly with offline ATC and Ai, than AI Flow might could replace F.S. AI Separation. But as I said, I found the separation with AI Flow too aggressive. Aircraft will end up in the hold but do not get released.
