Thanks!

It appears the 'AirOnly' feature in PSXT that would have live traffic in the air only has stopped working. I have reinstalled but the issue continues. PSXT Log File: PSXT Parameters.XML File:

It works now! Thanks @kiek

Thank you! Appreciate your work and efforts. Encountering issues with TNCM and MKJS at the moment though. With PSXT, at MKJS, I am getting the error "failed to download: 'https://www.lekseecon.nl/downloads/MSFS/archive/simaddon/MKJS.xml". PXST log from that session below: At TNCM, I get the "failed to download: 'https://www.lekseecon.nl/downloads/MSFS/archive/simaddon/TNCM.xml' error as well. See the log below for that session:

Seen your edited note after I posted the message above. I went ahead and installed MSFS back onto my machine, so I could get the handcrafted airport files into the PSXT\airports\my_simaddon folder. I sent them via email as requested.

With MSFS, PSXT is correctly placing aircraft at the proper parking positions at handcrafted airports. These handcrafted airports are enabled by default (though they can be disabled via the Content Manager), but they do not appear in the Community folder. As a result, they also don’t show up in the /PSXT/airports/my_simaddon folder. PSXT is treating these handcrafted MSFS airports as stock airports and is incorporating their parking data into the PSXT stock airport XML files, https://www.lekseecon.nl/downloads/docs/msfs_archive.txt. Due to encryption introduced in MSFS 2024, PSXT is no longer able to access that data. It now relies solely on the parking data from non-handcrafted stock airports, which is leading to the incorrect aircraft placements. So essentially, if PSXT could be configured to continue using the existing msfs_archive stock airport files, which appear to include the handcrafted airport parking data, with MSFS 2024, this might provide a viable workaround.

I would send the airport files if they appeared in the PSXT\airports\my_simaddon folder. Unfortunately, they do not. In MSFS, these airport files are registered under the stock airport files. For example, the MSFS PSXT archive's stock airport files for TNCM and MKJS are for the Asobo handcrafted airports. The list of the Asobo handcrafted airports can be found here, https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/guide-asobo-handcrafted-airports-msfs-2020/409633. Hopefully this helps.

Would it be possible for PSXT to use the parking data from the MSFS handcrafted airports archive with MSFS 2024? For example, TNCM and MKJS handcrafted airports had the correct parking positions in MSFS, but in MSFS 2024, due to encryption, PSXT is unable to access this data and the AI aircraft are misplaced with parking. As a workaround, I was wondering if PSXT could apply its MSFS archive data to MSFS 2024, since the handcrafted airports are essentially the same in both versions.

Went ahead and uninstalled PSXT, including deleting the C:\PSXT and C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\PSXT folders. Installing as new, resolved the issue. Thanks for your help.

Is this your first run after I changed the text boxes to drop downlists? No sir. Been running PSXT for weeks. Delete the line with the MAX_LIVE parameter from from your parameters.xml: Removed the "<parameter name="MAX_LIVE" value="-1" />" line from the parameters.xml file located in C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\PSXT and saved the changes, but the line keeps getting reinserted into parameters.xml file after relaunching PSXT.

Max Live in the GUI is set to 500. Please see the requested Log.txt details below:

Just tried this work around with KEWR, KLAX, and KPHL, but unfortunately it did not work.

Loaded up into 3 airports recently in MSFS 2024. The airports were KEWR, KLAX, and KPHL. PSXT showed 0 live traffic even though flyrealtraffic.com/coverage.html shows good coverage for the airports. The issue does not happen with every airport because iniBuilds KJFK and ImagineSim’s KDFW registered live traffic. MSFS Version: 1.6.5.0. (SU 4 Beta) PSXT Version: 11.9.2 Add-on Airports Used: KEWR Drzewiecki Design KLAX iniBuilds KPHL MK Studios

Understood. Thanks Nico.

Sorry, maybe a language interpretation problem, but is it in the my_thirdparty folder or not? KLAS.XML does not exist in the my_thirdparty folder currently. You probably mean /airports/learned/thirdparty/FlyTampa, because the airports/my_thirdparty folder is flat, it has no subfolders. Yes. That was the folder I was referencing. That was not necessary. These files do not play a role in this context. Ok. Just was an attempt to eliminate any possible conflicts.

No KLAS.xml is in the my_thirdparty folder. There was a KLAS.xml in the thirdparty\FlyTampa folder though. It was there because I had the FlyTampa KLAS scenery installed before installing the glideslope pro KLAS scenery. The FlyTampa KLAS scenery was uninstalled before installing the glideslope scenery. I have since deleted the KLAS.xml from the thirdparty\FlyTampa folder and also removed the KLAS.xml file from the airports\learned\stock folder. Issue still continues though.

No TBLO.zip was created after the airport scan. Did another scan, just to double check, and it did not create it at that time either. ==> Not recognised airport C:\Users\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\glideslope-airport-klas-las-vegas\Scenery\glideslope\klas\KLAS_SCN.bgl C:\Users\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\glideslope-airport-klas-las-vegas\manifest.json found Not recognised airport has ICAO 'KLAS' in title 'KLAS Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport' of manifest Try find publisher in: C:\Users\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\glideslope-airport-klas-las-vegas\Scenery\glideslope\klas\KLAS_SCN.bgl publisher 'Glideslope Pro' found thirdparty Glideslope Pro KLAS does not exist Try find publisher in: C:\Users\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\fsdreamteam-airport-kiah-houston\scenery\FSDT_KIAH\FSDT_KIAH_AIRPORT.bgl publisher 'FS Dreamteam' found thirdparty airport KIAH linked to archive/thirdparty/FS%20Dreamteam/KIAH.xml ==> Not recognised airport C:\Users\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\glideslope-kmia-miami\Scenery\glideslope\kmia\KMIA_SCN.bgl C:\Users\aviat\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\glideslope-kmia-miami\manifest.json found Not recognised airport has ICAO 'KMIA' in title 'KMIA Miami International Airport' of manifest Try find publisher in: C:\Users\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\glideslope-kmia-miami\Scenery\glideslope\kmia\KMIA_SCN.bgl publisher 'Glideslope Pro' found thirdparty Glideslope Pro KMIA does not exist

Performed a rescan of add-on airports with PSXT and relaunched. Unfortunately, the issue still continues,. PSXT log file shows: The park airport is KLAS (LAS) Read from learned airport file: 'airports\learned\stock\KLAS.xml' LEARN_SOFT : false MAX_LIVE : 500 LATERAL_RANGE : 10 AUTO_RANGE : true parking_percentage : 30 WEEK : false PARK_SOFT : true MAX_FIT : 47 (max number of half hours, is 24.0 hrs decimal) RT_PARKTRAFFIC_ONLY : false INITIAL_LOAD_ONLY : false Airport file read from 'archive/stock/KLAS.xml' for Mc Carran Intl publisher : stock altitude : 2114 ft num_parkpos : 243 quality factor : 57 RT traffic week : 35

Did you run an addon airports scan? Was there no message about tblo.zip? Yes, an addon airports scan was performed, and no message appeared about the tblo.zip. Verified that no tblo.zip or tblo folder exists in my PSXT directory currently. Maybe you have a file KLAS.xml in /PSXT/airports/my_thirdparty? No KLAS.xml file exists in my C:\PSXT\airports\my_thirdparty directory. Appears the issue is occurring with their KMIA scenery as well.

PSXT is applying the stock KLAS.xml to the glideslope pro KLAS scenery. As a result, the parked aircraft are not aligning with the scenery. The scenery was not installed from the MSFS2024 Marketplace.

@kiek Thank you for the fast implementation.

The behaviors that are beyond PSXT’s and RT’s control such as ground traffic stopping or disappearing due to a lack of new real-world data updates or low coverage, as well as ground traffic being out of alignment on the ground. Again, just inquiring about an option to have only static parked aircraft on the ground, with live traffic in the air only.

Currently using PSXT with "Max Live (park incl)" set to 0 because I only want parked traffic at airports and don't want to see the weird behaviors of live traffic on the ground. However, I would like to have an option to inject live traffic at around 500 feet after they have taken off, and have them ejected when they go below 500 feet while on approach. Are you able to implement a feature to set an injection or ejection height in PSXT?
