I have been using the ai plane to fly by itself from airport to airport which for the most part works. The problem is that the propeller and learjets can land with no problem and taxi to the gate but airliners never do. They take off correctly but when they reach the destination they just circle until they crash. The landing gear comes down and everything looks correct but then it turns and crashes into the ground. I also open up the ATC window and the tower has given permission to land but it never does. Not sure if it's a flight model problem or I have something set wrong in the settings. Has anyone had this problem? Thank you.

Live Traffic | Improvements?
bosflo replied to DPSimulation's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
can you click on those ai to follow them? I have not seen these icons before. -
what is the reason for such a huge file? I know there are more liveries but the previous 154 megapack is only 3gb. I am going to hold off on the new megapack because so far megapack 7 is keeping me happy enough. Until we get a great ai program and models like in p3d I am going to hold off installing these megapacks. I really do appreciate the work that went into making them.

Wow, i didn't realize it takes 10gb! I have just been downloading and installing like it's no tomorrow. I do appreciate these packs because it makes the sim more realistic but maybe I will curb my installing. I have a question for you guys. When a new livery pack is released and it contains more liveries do you delete all the folders from the "first" pack and just replace them with the new ones. I also use them as ai planes by changing the use ai entry. Do I also have to edit over 150 aircraft config entries. Thanks

Think I found my laptop. It's an msi raider 75 17 inch i7-10 and rtx 2070 super. I have been doing lots of research so I hope this is the one to get. I don't know if msfs requires different specs and requirements than a regular shooter type game. So it's kind of tough to find a review that specifically mentions using msfs. Do you think that this will run the game with lots of future addons.

Hey guys, is there a way to set the default view of the outside plane when you start a flight. When I start a flight the default view is outside showing the tail of the plane but I would like to see the plane from the side and centered. I know there are settings for cockpit but doesn’t seem like one for outside chase view. Thank you

My AI co-pilot is on strike!
bosflo replied to sd_flyer's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
What settings do you use for the ai to fly point to point. Do you have to set the flight settings up for an ai plane? I see that the takeoff works well but the landings never occur. Either the plane crashes and flips on the ground, fly around in a endless circle or give up and fly away. I'm not an expert on flight dynamics which is probably the problem. Thank you -
I really appreciate the time and work to get these out for free two days after release. I think that they should be commended for their effort and I really appreciate having some kind of realistic ai traffic in the new game. It's not perfect but until we get the aig oci people on board it's the best we can get. They are easy to install because you just drop them in the folder and that's it. You don't have to do any editing unless you want to use them as ai traffic. The only complaint is that the real world aircraft don't match with the livery but that is not their fault. The fault lies with the game and it's "real time" traffic but let's hope they fix that soon.

Thank you for doing that

Thank you, but I'm still getting the message that there are too many users downloading this file. I tried to take a screenshot but it didn't work. It says to keep trying which I will do.
-
too many downloads for this. Right now it cant be downloaded. Which is actually a good thing because it means that these are important to people.

Not sure if this has been "discovered" yet but I found a way to fly a plane from gate to gate like the super traffic board did. I was so excited that I decided to share this. If you select a plane and pick a departure gate airport and an arrival gate airport the plane will fly automatically from point to point. You have to select all the options on the ai control and sit back and watch. It's not perfect but it's the best we have to work with. Seems like it lets the user plane function as an ai plane but I'm not an expert, just someone who misses super traffic board and real world liveries on accurate models. Having said that, there are big problems that I need help with. The controls of the aircraft have to be set correctly otherwise the plane pitches up and down and turns erratically. I don't know what the right settings are for that so I need help. I would also like to position the plane in the center of the screen with a side view like we had with locked spot plane in P3D. I am having a hard time understanding the camera settings. I also wonder if you can save a flight with the view correct and that way every time you open the sim, the position would be the same. would also like to reverse the axis on the mouse because it's backwards for me and it's so annoying going one way and the mouse goes the other. Thanks guy for any help

Hey guys, I can only use real weather and traffic if my firewall is off which doesn't do much for security. Does anybody know what files I need to allow through the firewall? Also. has anyone found a way to save an outside view like we had with locked spot plane in P3D? I would like to set up my view and then save it so I don't have to set it every time. Particularly I would like to keep the plane side view centered on the screen. Right now it's too low and off to the side. Thank you very much

To everyone that has the insert disk error, I disabled my firewall and it worked. The problem is that I don't want to disable my firewall to play the game so it's not the best solution. I don't know how to enable the file that opens msfs. I have to add it to the firewall so I can keep the firewall open and still use msfs. Does anyone know the name of the file that I have to allow?
-
I agree, I was really hoping for a better ai system and hopefully it will come. I hope and pray super traffic board can be updated to work. Without it I can't even follow a plane on arrival. I appreciate the live traffic option but I can't do much with it yet but look at the aircraft label. Glad I did not have to delete my P3D because I would not be able to spot like that in msfs. The only things I want is add on ai traffic with liveries like aigm oci and super traffic board to watch. Did you know there is a way to follow the user plane from gate to gate. It's something called ai control and it flies your plane for you. Hopefully that can be expanded because that is pretty cool.

why is msfs2020 asking me to insert a game disc?
bosflo replied to XCLTM3's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
i disabled firewall and it worked -
Is anyone else having the problem where it asks for a disk at the beginning? I read about some people having this problem but not sure if it was resolved yet. I downloaded last night and restarted my computer but I still have the problem. Can anyone shed some recent light on this? Thank you.

Those who have it, please a video of the AI!
bosflo replied to atlflyer's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I was so afraid of the AI not being fully ready yet. I understand the reason why but it's the most important thing to me when a new sim becomes available. I hope we get aigm oci and super traffic board sometime soon otherwise watching default planes will take some getting used to. Can anyone say if you can still follow an ai plane like you could do in P3D? -
Which feature enhancement do you most want from P3D V5

service vehicles for ai planes -
thanks everyone.

I just tested my download speed because we all know how important our wifi speed is going to be. I have 52 dl speed on my laptop and 270 dl speed on my phone. They both us the same network so how are they so different? If the game was played on the phone I would be all set but of course it will need to be played on the slow laptop. Can anyone help me understand what this all means.

yes I had the load addon airport problem and yes putting the dummy file in worked.

I have been using 4.4 for while without too many problems but I see that Shenzen airport is out but it says 4.5 is the requirement. I have lots of add ons so when the update question comes up I usually ignore it because all my add ons are for 4.4. For years I did not have Shenzen airport in my P3D, it doesn't exist in the base game for me (don't ask). But now that there is a dedicated scenery for it I find myself considering updating. I have been reading posts about updating only client or updating only content or updating both and I am confused on what the procedure is. I have read stories about having to update all pbr sceneries and a nightmare update with orbx. I don't want to alter too much a working game to only get one scenery so what would be the recommendation from all the experts out there. Thank you
