Hi all. So I have AIG fully installed and it is operational. I have installed PSXT and Real Traffic (including subscription).

So I am trying to edit the parameters.xml file in PSXT to use the AIG stuff.

Some background info: MSFS is installed on my F: drive and my Community folder is on my E: drive

This is a section of what I have right now in the parameters.xml file for PSXT:

<parameters>
    <parameter name="COLLISION_USER_GND" value="true" />
    <parameter name="MAIN_WINDOW_X" value="400" />
    <parameter name="MAIN_WINDOW_Y" value="20" />
    <parameter name="SNAPSHOT_MINUTES" value="30" />
    <parameter name="DEFAULT_PERCENTAGE_SMALL" value="75" />
    <parameter name="DEFAULT_PERCENTAGE_MEDIUM" value="50" />
    <parameter name="DEFAULT_PERCENTAGE_LARGE" value="35" />
    <parameter name="BORDER_SMALL_MEDIUM" value="20" />
    <parameter name="BORDER_MEDIUM_LARGE" value="100" />
    <parameter name="REMOVE_FALSE_THRESHOLD" value="50" />
    <parameter name="PROGRAM_VERSION" value="30.3" />
    <parameter name="LIVERIES_FOLDER" value="" />
    <parameter name="STOCK_AIRPORTS_FOLDER" value="stock_airports" />
    <parameter name="ADDON_AIRPORTS_FOLDER" value="addon_airports" />
    <parameter name="SPECIALS" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder0" value="E:\MSFS\Packages\Community" />
    <parameter name="lfolder1" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder2" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder3" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder4" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder5" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder6" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder7" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder8" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder9" value="" />
    <parameter name="STOCK_AIRPORTS_PATH" value="E:\MSFS\Packages\Official\Steam\fs-base" />
    <parameter name="afolder0" value="" />
    <parameter name="afolder1" value="" />
    <parameter name="afolder2" value="" />

When I open PSXT I get the message:    48: Set parameters to your airports first.

I am going through the PSXT manual over and over but I can't figure out what I have wrong.

The automatic scan parameters on the app screen are both turned off

Can someone please help me? I feel like I am close but not quite there yet.

UPDATE: It seems if I turn on the Autoscan for Addon Airports it suddenly works but I don't know why.

Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Suggest that you post in the PSXT Forum right here on Avsim:

https://www.avsim.com/forums/forum/819-psxseecontraffic-for-fsx-p3d/

I'm no expert but I think you need to define your "a" folders with the correct path.  Here is how mine looks - my flight sim path is on my M drive ....

    <parameter name="afolder0" value="M:\MSFS_2020\Official" />
    <parameter name="afolder1" value="M:\MSFS_2020\Community" />

 

Autoscan is on for airport and liveries, so each Time i add some compagnies with aig oci, psx find them

Hello I am new to PSXT, but using AIG for long time now.

I got all settings right I think,

But at EDDF (Frankfurt) parking traffic is not working right. All other airports I tested work...

You’re using MSFS Steam version? If E:\MSFS\Packages\Official\Steam\fs-base is your path to the fs-base folder for stock airports, it should work.

Example path from the manual: 

<parameter name="STOCK_AIRPORTS_PATH" value="C:\Users\nwkaa\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb 3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Official\OneStore\fs-base" />

On my system the path is D:\MSFS\Official\OneStore\fs-base.

Also I think you might have entered the following under the wrong section:

<parameter name="SPECIALS" value="" />
    <parameter name="lfolder0" value="E:\MSFS\Packages\Community" />

The specials parameter it seems is for something else:

With the hidden parameter SPECIALS you may specify the registration codes separated by comma’s,
of your so called special liveries. For example:
<parameter name="SPECIALS" value="F-HTAC,N290AY" />

You also have to set a path to your AIG liveries here:

<parameter name="LIVERIES_FOLDER" value="" />

On my system I’ve got the AIG folder in the MSFS community folder: D:\MSFS\Community\aig-aitraffic-oci-beta

You might also want to set a path to add-on airports:

<parameter name="ADDON_AIRPORTS_FOLDER" value="addon_airports" />

I guess normally these will be in the MSFS community folder, unless you’re using Addon manager or similar.

Its not the easiest setup for sure. But once you’ve got the correct folder paths under the correct parameters it should work.
