December 10, 20241 yr Just announced on their Discord: Quote Hello @everyone, we're excited to say that our final 'feature complete' addition to traffic will be entering into the next experimental patch. That means that once we verify its stability we are ready to move traffic into the Early Access branch for all our users. As a reminder, this transfer of traffic to the public branch is a free update. Traffic has always been part of our core feature set and we don't have any intention to charge anything extra for it. This brings us to what the experimental branch is and what we use it for. The experimental branch is a place to 'stage' new features and verify their stability before we bring it over to the public branch for all to use. This does not imply things brought over are bug free - far from it. But it does mean that they are stable enough to be considered ready for the public branch where we will continue to iterate on them. With tens of thousands of users and a small team of 3 core developers it's very easy for us to get overwhelmed with bug reports. The experimental branch is a way to suppress the amount of bug reports we get to make sure we can manage them appropriately. When you purchase the Supporter's version of BATC this is primarily a way to give us more support. We give access to the experimental branch as a 'thank you' to our users so you get something fun in return for your donation. What the experimental branch is NOT is a paywall for features. All features that start in experimental *will* end up in the public branch. So we want to encourage all users to think of the Supporter's Pack in this way - please do not purchase the Supporter's Pack to get a single feature. Do so only if you want to support our development. To that end, if you purchased Supporter's Pack exclusively to get access to traffic you may feel it's unfair that we are now moving traffic into the main branch, and we can understand this stance. But here again we want to gently remind everyone that this is not what the experimental branch is for. We issue refunds when our program doesn't function on the customer's machine, but generally do not issue refunds for much else. So please do not purchase the Supporter's Pack for a single feature. Do so only if you want to support us. We will not be issuing refunds for the Supporter's Pack since it is a donation - not a paywall. Please keep that in mind before you make the purchase. We have an exciting new feature that we will be announcing soon that will replace traffic in the Experimental branch so access to it will remain quite relevant moving forward. A big thank you to everyone who helped submit bug reports during the alpha release of traffic. There are still quite a few issues that exist with traffic, but now they are much fewer in number and we're ready to work on them in the main branch. We will be moving the traffic over to the public in the next few days and replacing the traffic in Experimental with our big new feature which we'll be ready to announce soon. Stay tuned!
December 10, 20241 yr I love the progress. Keep in mind it's only half a year old. They've come a long way since the beginning For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.
December 10, 20241 yr I can vouch for the BATC traffic, it's nice. It can use FSLTL, AIG and FSTraffic models if you have any of them installed. Edited December 10, 20241 yr by Tuskin38

December 10, 20241 yr For airliners it seems to a decent job. Still not so great for GA stuff - flying that's not on a SID/STAR. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

December 11, 20241 yr Great to hear, still not decided if I will go for BATC or FSHud though. In the end, it might be a gut decision. But as both tools depend on FSLTL or AIG models, I still wait until they got all their model issues sorted anyway. I guess the last patch was already a big step into this direction.

E.g. in the graphics settings there‘s also an tarffic setting For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

BATC will then inject traffic using FSLTL/AIG aircraft models.
