Hi Guys As a long term FSX/P3D user. I find myself these days flying more and more in Xplane 12. I have a relatively simple set up at the moment just using the Zibo mod and better pushback with the default airports and textures. I am now looking for an AI traffic package and not really sure what is best to go for. I tried the live traffic route a couple of years ago and whilst i was impressed with what i could see out of the cockpit the planes on the ground would do silly things like doing a 360 on pushback. I am looking for something relatively easy to set up, good on framerates and something that gives me a pretty good representation of AI Traffic. Any recommendations? kind regards Daz

That is good news Ray!

Thanks for the heads up, just bought LFTZ looks like a nice little airport 🙂

Can you guys tell me how do you back up your GSX installation? , I have not updated mine for about 6 months and everything is working ok but I do see new features still being added for both FSX and P3D which is awesome.

I only have the PMDG 737 for FSX and P3D, i was away from flight sim for a while and then when i got back into it they had already stopped selling their P3D products. I do find their whole attitude to both potential and existing customers a bit strange. If they were on sale I would buy both the 747 and 777 but alas that choice is not open to me. I will probably buy the Ifly 747 as that's still on sale don't think I have any choice for a decent 777 alas.

Is a moderator able to move this post as this is the FSX forum

Thank you for the input guys ,have some awesome things to try out!

HI Guys Hope you are well. I have been really enjoying Xplane 12 and now have a few purchased aircraft including the FF 757/767 and Tollis Airbus A319 and A340. I actually managed a complete manual approach and landing in horrible weather yesterday without giving my passengers whiplash :), I really want to improve my landings and I thought how about something to rate my landings? Can anyone recommend a way for me to do this? I thought maybe some sort of plug in would be able to rate my landing. Would love to hear an recommendations. Kind Regards Daz

I have both the 757 and 767 which i love, i am tempted with the 777 but am unsure if 8GB of Vram will be enough (RTX 2080). I just use default airports as i'm impressed with them and fly in 1080P resolution.

I been thinking about getting the QW 787 to add to my 757 as i really enjoy flying that aircraft. I use Simbrief for my flight planning and am pretty sure there are profiles for both aircraft :).

Hi Ray I was quite late to the party for P3D so i missed out on all of the PMDG aircraft apart from the 737. I used the QW 757 for my trip across the pond and really enjoyed the flight. My payware airports are mainly in Europe and I have a couple in the states so will need to invest in some more but its definitely something i want to do this year 🙂

what a great idea! Last year i achieved doing my first transatlantic flight (EGKK to KBOS) a world tour is another on my simulator bucket list.

Hi I use the excellent AIG traffic for P3D V4.5 as i found Ultimate Traffic Live a bit disappointing and very out of date. I still dabble in flying FSX from time to time and I wondered if its at all possible to get AIG traffic working in FSX so i can ditch UTL entirely. I know the one click install method does not work ( I only use BGL flightplans). Is it possible at all to use the flight plans and models from my P3D installation in FSX? and if so how would this be done? I am not sure if this is possible but I thought no harm in asking, Kind regards Darran

I agree, things were fine yesterday. Today I have been greeted by big banners that don't seem to go away,

I have an Oculus Rift 2 and might give this a try, is Flyinside easy to set up?

2025 was the year I actually bought Xplane 12 and i have been very impressed! I hope you all have a great Christmas and a happy new year.

Now this is a lovely Christmas present from the team. Look forward to trying this out over the weekend.

That's a great place to start, thank you for the heads up 🙂

Thanks for the heads up, just bought the Toliss A319 my first Airbus for Xplane. Hopefully I can find some good tutorials as i have a lot of learning to do.

Thank you so much for sharing, i often wondered why it wasn't working 🙂

That is so cool, nice one Ray!

I second the opinion that the default airports are really good. I haven't bought a single airport add on for X Plane 12

I did this about a month ago moving from and HDD to an SSD the only 100 percent safe way is to uninstall all your 3rd party add ons first then P3D and reinstall P3D and slowly one by one your third party add ons.

That's perfect timing 🙂

I've never flown the Airbus A330, now could be a good time to try and learn it.
