They had to shut off their servers due a huge maintenance update wich was mandatory due updates on the cloud server side.

No date is set for the update. But with caution mid february was mentionet. 

They are still existing and doing great work for all of us 😉

What you have already downloaded as BGL files will still be visible. They ask that you don’t run any of their executables as they interact with the servers and that could cause issues.

Kai returns from his delayed honeymoon next week so watch the AIG forum for news.

@sonny147, didn’t you backup your P3D install? Ouch! Even an external USB HDD would have sufficed although a NAS box with greater space is best.

An hour to do a backup and then restore is surely better than a full reinstall of P3D plus all your addons?

Bit of a sadist Roy !, also a bit OCD about keeping system clean and upto date now I've asked you before i know but where do you change your hardware info again on this site ? ie my old info

9700k,1080Ti,maximus hero XI, ID cooling 280 AIO, Phanteks case, 32GB steel series ram, x3 Samsung Evo's 480 GB for scenery, intel 2TB nvme for P3D and addons /Scenery, Adata 480GB nvme for OS win11, 2 TB SSHD for everything else, 43" LG 4K TV for the sim(1440P) , second 27" monitor for charts/ youtube etc. Warthog Stick, X56 throttle and Logitech  pedals, Razer keyboard and mouse, oh and a usb fan to cool me down on approach !

I can confirm this. In use and works like it should

HI folks!  Recently made the switch over to AIG from UTL2.  Models look fantastic and great effects... happy with the switch.  Question is what do you do for general aviation traffic at your airports?

 

Is there another program to randomly generate GA traffic?  Made my own with AIFP (is that hard to do)?  

Or since all my AIG flight plans are AIGFP based should I turn the default traffic back on and move P3D 'airline traffic density' setting to 1 and the 'general aviation traffic density' setting 50 (or whatever number would generate sufficient GA AI for me)?  I believe I read that since my AIG commercial traffic is AIGFP based that it is completely disconnected from the P3D 'airline traffic density' setting.

If you have the free ORBX AI traffic package, you get a lot of US and/or Australian registered GA planes. These you can use to create your own flightplans. Yes, there is a learning curve to climb with AIFP, but I think it´s worth it. Of course you have to create traffic for all airfields. That´s a lot of work. I just do the ones I create and then add some traffic to it.

Otherwise AIG has Business jet travel, which you can add. But I must admit, I hardly ever encounter them. So I stick with my own traffic.
