  1. Turns out those paints were missing from those airlines flight plans. I had to spend three hours verifying all paints. it seems better now
  2. Ok, that sounds good. Looks like I'm not the only playing this way :) looking forward to it.
  3. I'm sorry but either this update is not working for me, or I am using it wrong. The camera is not working the way it was before when I clicked on a flight in the traffic board. If I click on a flight in chase view it doesn't switch to that plane. I click on the map and also the list, but it never switches. Sometimes the camera controls aren't working in tower view as well. Just a view things that I am wondering about as well. Can the camera view be set in chase view? I would like to not have to configure my view on each flight. I would also like to ask if there is a way to plant a camera next to a runway and just watch planes arrive tracking them one by one without clicking on each one. What I mean is that I was hoping for a way to track the plane to a certain distance and then the camera would automatically switch to the next plane and so on and so on. Can this program do this? it's already been a game changer for me but with just a view bumps in the road. Thank you
  4. Is there a way to watch planes fly by on the ground or on arrival? I have been playing around with this program, but I don't know how to achieve what I'm looking for. I see in the promotional videos this being done but I can't seem to get the same results. I am also wondering if you can save the view in chase mode. I would like to see the planes from the side all the time and not have to spend time getting the view every time I click on a plane. Thanks
  5. Hey guys, I pulled the trigger and bought FS2024 but I'm not in love with it yet. It seems to me like the cameras don't work the same as FS2020 and I'm having a hard time adjusting. I also have so many questions about spotty26 but I don't know where to ask them. It seems like a good program but I need more help with it.
  6. Well, I would consider you the expert and you have helped me in the past. So, would you suggest that I buy FS2024? It's not an upgrade, I have to buy it straight out and I have already been burned by FS2024 for four years now. Is it better for us plane spotters? can you follow a plane from gate to gate like P3D and does AIG work well with FS2024. I think you know where I am going with these questions. Thanks
  7. yeah, that's great but was the camera able to follow them or did you have to move the camera manually? I don't want to have to move the camera manually for each arrival or departure. The fly by camera is what I was hoping for.
  8. I bought MSFS 2020 mostly for flying and spotting planes, but I haven't used it for years because the ai and spotting options still are terrible. I had such elation today when I found Flight Control Spotter and watched review videos. The thing that I wanted for so long was finally at my grasp. I bought it right away and installed with joy. I must have gotten too excited because I realized soon after that the feature I most hoped for was only for MSFS 2024. I just want a camera that tracks planes and I don't have to do it manually or use the replay option. I would like to "sit" near a runway and just watch arrivals and departures. This program seemed to be able to do this and more. I am certainly not buying FS2024 for this when I can't even spot planes in MSFS 2020. So, what can I do, is there any product for MSFS 2020 that will achieve this. Obviously, I don't mind paying for something, but I don't know what's out there. I guess it's my own fault for not reading the description enough and I feel foolish for quickly spending money on something that might not work. I think if I can't find something, then it's time to get rid of this game. Thanks
  9. Hi, I just purchased this but after trying it out I have some questions. It looks great but these things are bothering me. What is the difference in spotty view and ai traffic? when I load the map and click on an airplane what view do I use? How can I stop the plane from jumping around? it's very distracting and really takes away the fun. The dox says turn down your fps but I have not found a way to do that. Which is the best way to watch an ai plane fly from gate to gate. Do I use the fstl traffic board, spotty view or ai planes button? Why do some planes just disappear into thin air? I was following a plane and then it just stopped and I had to reload spotty How can I use the keyboard to change the angles. When I am in spotty mode the plane view is distorted and I want to be able to zoom in and out or up and down. In spotty mode I can't move the camera at all and in ai planes view I can't fully move the camera either. That seems to be the big ones for me for now. I really would appreciate any help thanks
  10. wow, can you show us exactly how you did this. I have stayed away from the game for over a year because I could not do this. Is this some kind of new program because I have not kept up with add on programs. Thank you
  11. so, I discoved that I have the same problem. I haven't played msfs in months so i decided to start again. My first stop was to run aigm my old favorite. I knew there would be an update but those don't usually cause problems. it first said my folder location was too long but I already had that fixed, then it said I can change the location but the program immediately closes. I read this thread and I took out the beta in the folder and made sure the manifest file was correct. I go into my aigm program and everything is gone. It tells me to setup everything again. There is no way that I am going to download all those plans again so there needs to be something I can do. I still have the traffic and sim objects folder on the computer folders so that must help. I have been with you since the beginning but this is something that is going to make me jump ship. You guys have always been helpful in the past and I am hoping for some help once again.
  12. Hi guys, I have not played MSFS in months and I wanted to know if there is anything new available for ai traffic and planes? My specific questions are as follows: 1. Is there a program that would allow me to follow an ai plane from gate to gate without actually flying it myself? 2. Are there any new camera programs that allow me to plane spot at airports without moving with the keyboard keys? 3. Are there any new ai plane models available that can be flown by the simulator? 4. Any new traffic programs or utilities/tools? They can be free or paid for but I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars, thank you
  13. Hello everyone, I am a huge ai plane spotter and even though the ai system is terrible, I still would like to watch planes. I would like the ability to place a camera near a runway and have it track the airplanes that pass by. It would also be great if the camera would track the next ai automatically. I would be able to watch the camera track planes as they arrive and depart. I don't really need an expensive program that changes cockpit views and recording options because that's not of interest to me. This was available in P3DV4 but I would like to have this in MSFS too. I hope I am explaining it correctly. I haven't installed MSFS yet but I think it's time to test the waters and having the tracking ability would make it an easy choice. Thank you
  14. I can't send an email because that email is not working for me so I just sent a help request on the website.
  15. 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 😉
