New version of LiveTraffic available !

[pmb 5,137]

Now I'm a but puzzled. I hust got the version 9 announcement main and read

• History traffic is now only available for professional subscriptions. Standard subscribers of course will still get realtime traffic.

While my version shot shows the time slider and I can shift it.

Kind regards, Michael

Michael, the history function will still be available until your next subscription is due, as state in the RealTraffic release notes....

$120 is a bargain. One year of real life traffic for about a night out for 2. Can't beat that.....

More airplanes, faster data, better coverage! .................................more expensive

Absolutely! 

Use RealTraffic with AIG (free) and PSXT (free) for a simulator populated with real traffic for the whole world, including GA.  Gates at larger airports pre-populated with the correct airlines/aircraft.  Tuning into LiveATC.net lets you hear all the live traffic too!  Flying GA with Foreflight on the iPad is quite incredible when you fly under/over class B/C/D - departures/arrivals/taxiing aircraft are all visible in the controlled airspace.  Flying a pattern at a GA field with all the traffic actually there is great fun.

If random ATC chatter without the aircraft visible out the window is what you want, because its free, then that is great too.

Does this combination completely solve real world landings such that after they land they clear the runway at a real world pace, whereas currently in MSFS Real-Time Online traffic often will slow down to a very slow crawl and finally make it off the runway and on rare occasion have just flat out gotten stuck on the runway and the controller with command a Go Around.  Is this solved, and if so, which of the 3 softwares addresses this part?

No you have not read it well I think, exactly the same price for the standard edition. 

And if you find it too expensive, no problem, don't use it.

Yes that is of course no problem here. You see the ai aircraft behave as their real live counterparts.  PSXseeconTraffic + RealTraffic do that job.  The AI aircraft of AIG are just objects moved around bij PSXseeconTraffic. MSFS has nothing to do with it, it only is there for the scenery, and to provide the SimConnect interface that PSXT needs (just as it uses SimConnect in FSX and P3D for 5 years already ..............................................).

My only real complaint about the PSXT+RT is that my FPS tanks at larger airports due to the number or aircraft - still worth it though!

I took out a short standard subscription a few months ago and thoroughly enjoyed syncing LT to BigTV streams on Youtube via the (then included) 24 hours of history. 

Shame, but I don't think that I'll bother now it's gone...

Thought I'd give it a go. I purchased the one month subscription to real traffic and have succesfully managed to inject via PSXT as advertised. However I appear to be missing most, if not all, the liveries.  I use AIG and so have most airline liveries. How do I set up PSXT to pick up the AIG liveries ?

I took out a 3 month subscription around a month ago and have noticed that with the latest update the aircraft animations are a lot smoother now, and don't cut taxiway corners.

Pls use the dedicated PSXseeconTraffic forum if your have questions.

Thanks. Found the answer there. I had removed the AIG folder from my community as I wasn't currently using traffic.  Put it back and all good.

Much obliged.  If I lose patience w/ Asobo for solving my primary concern, that being stalled traffic on runways on occasion, and also if and when they get around to bringing in some more authentic plane models which is a secondary consideration, I know where to look :o).   For me, the reality is in large part solved, except for these two issues, and of course there is no monthly payment, no troublesome installations.

I am afraid the pressure on Jörg to deal with the models and notably the remaining yellow/white etc. liveries is relieving more and more to the extent excellent addon-packages becoming available. I don't recall when I saw them the last time, but it was long ago.

As a result, no one seems to even care of them in the Q&As anymore.

Kind regards, Michael
