It got to the end and there was 375 not installed. I re-ran the installation and they are still there. How do I get them installed?

Thanks

Same way, select them all and be attentive to the ones that need your help.

Select the first one by itself and press Install. It may prompt to to do the download in your browser. It will open the page that has the download, so just download it. When the download is finished, close your browser and click Ok on the small dialogue. A file explorer window will open, navigate to where the download is and select the file (double click it). The installation should carry on from there.

Do the same with what will now be the first one again. Do that for five or six of them. Then select all the remaining ones and do a bulk install again (with skip checked). A bunch more should then install automagically. If any more remain, do the same again.

It does nothing eg using UPSAirlines. I press the green install then flightplan installation. Install using OCI, I press then press install in the  "thank you for downloading the flightplan". Then, [please wait while the files are installed.

It goes no further!

Thanks

I cant figure out how i would setup the tool to only use it for online flying on VATSIM. I only need the models  somehow and vPilot to recognize them. Is there any good folk around here to just explain the tool workflow? 

I have understood that i don't have to use the traffic injector if i only need VATSIM, but that means that i should download ALL airline flightplans?

The 375 are still showing as not installed, and I have now downloaded all those that I want and installed them. I'm at a loss now!

Thanks

I have some loaded of the original ones and they show up on MSFS - so far so good, see what happens tomorrow!

Thanks

Beside the OCI-Bulk button is a checkbox for skip manual downloads (or something like that). Make sure it is checked before pressing the OCI-Bulk button.

Once it has gone through everything you selected, you can go back and select the ones it skipped and install those, doing the manual bit as needed.

I installed everything doing it that way, and it skipped 87 packages. I did the individual install for the first 6 of those 87, then reselected the rest and did the bulk install with skip again (because many of the remaining packages were looking for the same model/repaint that the first 6 wanted). That left me with just 5 that it skipped. Finished those off one at a time.

It should be noted that the ones that require manual intervention are because the site that AIG Manager is using to download that specific model/repaint does not allow scripted downloads from the program itself. They have to be done via a browser. If those downloads were available elsewhere without having to use the browser, I'm sure AIG would have used them.

What folder do we insert the manual download (zip file) to?

Ignore my request as I hadn't seen your later post, I follow that and things seem to be working. Thank you for your post.

Doesn’t matter where the manual install file gets downloaded, when you get promoted to find the downloaded file, find the zip file and click ok. No need to extract anything etc

Yes, I found that out, I'm now downloading all the flight plans seemingly without any problem after downloading the manual zip file and double clicking it. I think the manual could be a little clearer for those who haven't used AIG before, maybe it's just lost in translation.

I'm just doing the same. I had 1 (one) file so far to download manually in the beginning, despite checking "Skip manual downloads". The rest seems to run automagically for a couple of hours now.

Kind regards, Michael

Fair call, I think a few YouTube tutorials should pop up fairly quickly.

Let's hope everything goes smoothly Michael. The worrying thing is people might miss out on the AIG OCI and give up on it partly because the instructions could be better for those who are new to it.

I would love to create one myself TODAY, but I don't have the microphone. I could probably make some money on too from the number of views, heh.
