I can't send an email because that email is not working for me so I just sent a help request on the website.

I bought it at simmarket and I will send you my order info. I would love to use a newer version because maybe that helps. I was able to install fine so I don’t think it’s a bad install. Is there a tutorial for setting up the stationary camera because the documentation didn’t really help me. Then again maybe the new version will fix everything 😉

Hi, I am using the 3.04.b01 version. I have been combing through you tube videos for help but they are using a different (older?) version. Yes I would like to able to sit near the runway and watch the planes come in. If I remember from before the camera would follow the airplane as it arrives and then automatically switch to the next airplane arriving. I remember spending hours just watching planes arriving. But the follow function is not working for me. I can see all my airplanes in the list but if I click follow nothing happens in the sim. Also if I click the camera pod button I get an unhandled exemption and if I click the stationary button it puts me into the ocean which is strange when I am flying in colorado.in the older videos they just clicked on an ai and it showed up in the game. Is there a way to get that older version instead of the newer one. I am using P3D V4.5 and I installed the proper version so I don't know what else to check.

Hello, I recently came back to P3D V4 and I am getting all my addons back in order. It's been a while so I need a refresher course on AI Tracker X for P3D V4. I installed correctly but it's not working for me. I want to be able to sit at a runway and watch all the planes flyby. I see all the ai traffic in the list but if I click follow AI it doesn't show anything in the game itself. There is a follow window popup but clicking on any of the options doesn't result in anything either. I have the aitrackerx selected in the vehicle menu but I just can't get anything to view. the one thing is that if I click on the camera pod I get an unhandled exemption message so that's definitely a problem. I know this can be done because I used to have it before and it worked great but now I seem to have forgotten how this program works. I would appreciate any help or advice thanks.

It turns out that I was trying an even older version that I had. There have been several versions of many sceneries and I bought them all. So I tried the newest MMMX scenery and so far it works exactly like you explained. You saved me again and I thank you

I tried to install but I don't get the separate folders rather than a bunch of bgl's that I don't know how to add to the scenery entries. It won't let me add the bgl's to the scenery entries. Is there some different way to do this?

Ok, thank you. I will work on that

yes, I have traffic working because of the file changes. So far it works in STB because when I compile I can see the airline package names from the scenery/world/scenery folder. When I was in the traffic manager I downloaded the zipped airline package files and then when I installed them using the manager I had to point to those zipped airline files on a folder on my computer. I hope I did it correctly because I'm sure you will tell me that there was a much easier way and I could have saved hours of time. Which is pretty much the way things go for me. Thanks again

Well that was fun. I took your suggestion and replaced my aifp traffic files with the bgl ones. It took a long time but I think it will be worth it. The million dollar question is can i delete all the zipped traffic files if they are now in the program? In the past you couldn't do a single small thing with the files otherwise you have to start everything over. It would be just to save some computer space if I could put them on a zip drive if needed later. Thanks again

ok, so here's what I got. I installed every package into P3D using aifp because I didn't know about the bgl option. They all load fine in the game but my problem came with STB because I didn't know you had to run the traffic manager to see anything into the game. I kept doing it the old way and kept wondering why the traffic manager kept popping up when P3D is launched. Then it would show aircraft in the traffic manager but not in the game. I remember back in the day the (bgl) files were listed individually in the scenery/ world scenery folder and I could add repaints and stuff like that. When I ran STB it did not show all those individual flightplans rather it just showed a trafficcarriers file. I think I will start to delete a few packages and then put them back in using the bgl but I just want to make sure it's done right. Thanks for your help and I am glad people are still using and supporting P3D.

so that means that I need to delete my whole aig manager and then start fresh. How can I do that without messing around with files and folders. what happens to all the data that could be leftover like traffic and model files? i just want to do this right have a clean reinstall and not hqve any conflicts or problems. I am using P3D V4 if that helps. thanks

How do you select to use bgl instead of the default for the installer. Things change pretty quick because it used to only be bgl files and now there is this new thing. I did not see a bgl choice and now I have downloaded all the packages into P3D. I have noticed STB not playing well with the traffic controller and that is not a good thing. If I need to install all the packages again then so be it because I want them to work with STB and I have a pretty fast computer 😉

Aha, so that's the rub. I didn't know that traffic controller was needed because before it was just an extra addon that you could use or not. I will use ai companion as well but I always loved STB for my needs. Can you choose either bgl or aifp and which is better? I just went with what the traffic manager defaults where, but I am concerned about where to put the traffic files on my computer. I know in the past it was very very important to put them in the right place. Thanks guys

thanks for your suggestion but it wasn't for me. I really love super traffic board and want to use that but I am having so much trouble with it. This takes me right back in the day when I used to pull my hair out using P3D and addons. It seems I am pulling my hair out again but this time there is no more STB forums, website, or videos for help so I am relying on the experts to help me. My biggest problem is using STB with AIG OCI and I can't get the AI in P3D to show up. I can install packages fine but when I load up STB there is no data to click on. If I can get that to work together then everything will be fine but for now it's hours of frustration. So I would appreciate any and all help. Thanks

yes, I am using AIG but I never heard of ai companion. How is it different from Super Traffic Board? I like to follow a plane from gate to gate and not do so much actually flying just spotting.
