Hi there, I have found reference on the internet i.e. Flightsim forums, to the Swedflight Pro 2011 FSX Scenery package, which was the FS2004 Airports and Scenery Package from Swedflight, made compatable for Flight Sim X, or a completely reworked and redesigned Version for Flight Sim X. I find a link to the main download, i.e. SWED2011-SYD.zip, quite alot on the internet, but all the website links no longer work, when I try them. And when I use the website http://web.archive.org to retrieve the Links, and that download, all of them havn't been archived and stored. Does anyone on this forum, know where I can download that package and .zip File from, on the internet ? Because I can't seem to be able to find any Flightsim Website, with that download available. Any help and info would be much appreciated Regards Eddie Winch

Hi Jim, I think I must have the latest version of Airound X, as I downloaded the product, from the www.Simarket.com Website recently. I am puzzled though, why disabling the NL2000 AI Traffic, from the Scenery Library, means nearby Volkel Airbase won't crash the Airound X Program ? When I am at Eindhoven Airport, but when both are enabled in the Scenery Library, the Program crashes, when I am at Eindhoven Airport, and I think one or two others ? What could be the link between them that causes the crash ? Do you have any ideas ? Eddie

Hi there, I have a problem at the moment, with the Airound X Program crashing, in FSX. It happens when I select certain Airports in the Netherlands in FSX. I have the NL2000 Version 4 Scenery package, When I select certain Airports, in Holland in particular Eindhoven Airport. When I load Airound X, FSX crashes and shuts down, It took a while, but the problem appears to be an issue with the NL2000 Version Traffic, and nearby Volkel Airbase ICAO Code EHVK. I know that because when I unselect it, from the Scenery Library and start at Eindhoven Airport, and I run Airound X, FSX no longer crashes. And when I unselect the NL2000 V4 Traffic from the scenery library in FSX, and reselect Volkel Airbase (EHVK) again, Airound X loads properly, therefore the problem is to do with these two parts of the NL2000 V4 Scenery/Traffic package. I am actually using all FS2004 Traffic Files at the moment, as FSX can't use both FS2004 and FSX Traffic Files at the same time, as people well know. So the AI Traffic Files, are from the NL2000 Version 3 Special Edition, Scenery package for FS2004. However I am very unsure what the problem could be ? Does anyone on this forum have any idea, what it could be ? It would be great if someone could point me in the right direction, any help and info would be much appreciated. Regards Eddie Winch

I don't know if this could be a factor, but I also have FS2004 installed on my computer, I was using that very recently. Before I moved over to FSX. I have several folders on my computer Backups etc, with FS2004 Traffic Files in. Could FS2004 AI Traffic Files, not located in FSX Folders on my computer, be having an influence, in the problem I am having ? Thanks for your help guys. Eddie

Hi Ernie, I have the following Area in my Scenery.cfg File in FSX :- [Area.001] Title=Default Terrain Texture_ID=1 Local=Scenery\World Layer=1 Active=TRUE Required=TRUE However I couldnt find one, in the Scenery.CFG File, which had Local=Scenery\World\Scenery which as you know is the path, to where the Traffic Files are. Should I have one, that looks something like this ? :- [Area.xxx] Title=AI Traffic Files Texture_ID=x Local=Scenery\World\Scenery Layer=x Active=TRUE Required=TRUE Thanks for all your help so far Eddie

Yes Dave, I have Aircraft Shadows turned off in FSX.

Yes Ernest, I mean 3rd party AI Traffic WOAI etc, I have disabled the default Traffic Files trafficAircraft.bgl and trafficBoats.bgl

Hi there, I recently converted my FS2004 Traffic Files to FSX Format. When I used the FS9 Traffic Files with the FS2004 AI Aircraft, in FSX All AI Aircraft would show on the ground, and in the Air, now not all in the Air, and on the Ground at Aerosoft Mega Airport Brussels for example, no AI Aircraft other than mine. Is that because the FS2004 Aircraft will need to be converted to FSX Format aswell, when the Traffic files are converted to FSX Format? Therefore why do some FS2004 AI Aircraft still show in the Air ? Some that show in the Air, are FS2004 Native interestingly. Also can FSX AI Traffic Files, be converted to FS2004 AI Traffic File Format ? Could I convert the default FSX Traffic File trafficBoats.bgl to FS2004 Traffic File Format for example ? and an NL2000V4 Military Traffic File ? Any help and info would be appreciated Eddie

Hi there, I have recently copied over my FS2004 AI Aircraft and FS2004 Traffic Files, to FSX. And I used the AI Flight Planner Program, to Bulk Convert my FS2004 AI Traffic Files to FSX AI Traffic File Format Files. Virtually all the FS2004 Traffic Files, had the @ Symbol in the Flightplans. But when I did a check of some of the FSX converted AI Traffic Files, the @ Symbol had been removed from them. Is there an option in AI Flightplanner, which allows a Bulk Convert of FS2004 Traffic Files, to FSX Format, without removing the @ Symbol ? Any help and info would be appreciated Eddie

The problem is sorted now, all that was necessary in the end. Was to copy one of the Simconnect.dll Files to the AI Timetable 2 Program's Main Folder, now the Program works. Eddie

Hi fshobby, Yes I checked the files out, in FXEditor last night. I found the 2 problem .fx Files, I used one of the okay Chimney Smoke .fx Files and I copied and renamed it, to what the problem one was, and the problem is now sorted. Also for the other problem one, the NL2000_flare.fx File, which is the flame from Oil Refinery Towers, I did the same thing as the first problem File, and it worked OK. This time using an Oil Rig Flame .fx File, a default one in FSX. Do you know of any proper Oil Refinery Flame "Flare" .fx Files, I could use as an alternative, from the internet for the NL2000 Scenery in FSX ? Many thanks for your initial reply. Regards Eddie

Hi there, I have a problem with Smoke from Factory and Power Station Chimneys, with the NL2000 Scenery Package in FSX. The smoke Spokes out like Searchlights from the Chimney, rather than rising as it should from the top of the Chimnies, every single factory chimney near Rotterdam this happens for. What should I look for and change in the relevent .fx Files, i.e. Settings and numerical Values etc ? Here is one of the problem files :- [Library Effect] Lifetime=5 Version=2.00 Damage=0 Priority=0 Display name = NL2000, Johan Caljé, smoke (c) 2002 [Properties] Cockpit=1 VirtualCockpit=1 Spot=1 Tower=1 Map=1 [Emitter.0] Lifetime=0.00, 0.00 Delay=0.00, 0.00 Bounce=0.00 Rate=10.00, 20.00 X Emitter Velocity=0.00, 0.00 Y Emitter Velocity=0.00, 0.00 Z Emitter Velocity=0.00, 0.00 Drag= 0 , 0 X Particle Velocity=00.00, 00.00 Y Particle Velocity=10.00, 20.00 Z Particle Velocity=00.00, 00.00 X Rotation=0.00, 0.00 Y Rotation=-0.00, 0.00 Z Rotation=0.00, 0.00 X Offset=00.00, 0.00 Y Offset=0.00, 0.00 Z Offset=0.00, 0.00 Pitch=0.00, 0.00 Bank=0.00, 0.00 Heading=0.00, 0.00 [Particle.0] Lifetime=01.00,8.00 Type=19 X Scale=2.0,3.00 Y Scale=2000.0, 3000.00 Z Scale=2.0, 3.00 X Scale Rate=0.3, 0.40 Y Scale Rate=0.3, 0.40 Z Scale Rate=0.3, 0.40 Drag=-3.00, -0.98 Color Rate=0.20, 0.70 X Offset=-1.00, 1.00 Y Offset=-1.00, 1.00 Z Offset= -1, 1 Fade In=0.00, 0.00 Fade Out=0.10, 0.40 Rotation=-20.00, 20.00 Face=1, 1, 1 Shade=1 [ParticleAttributes.0] Blend Mode=1 Texture=fx_1.bmp Bounce=0.00 Color Start=110, 110, 100, 250 Color End=150, 150, 140, 250 Jitter Distance=0 Jitter Time=0 TempK=114.00 TempRate=-0.01 uv1=0.00, 0.50 uv2=0.50, 1.00 X Scale Goal=1000.00 Y Scale Goal=1000.00 Z Scale Goal=14.00 Extrude Length=0.00 Extrude Pitch Max=0.00 Extrude Heading Max=0.00 Any help would be much appreciated Regards Eddie Winch

Does the folder name, have to be named correctly, or will the AI Timetable 2 Program install. If the correct Simconnect.dll File is present anywhere on my computer, or in any folder on the Hard disk ? The Program still says Simconnect.dll is missing from the computer, when I run the .exe File. Could the Folder name, the File is in be the problem now ? As I have the correct Simconnect.dll File now, the Folder is in the winsxs Folder in Windows. Eddie

Hi could someone tell the last characters and numbers for the following folder, for the simconnect.dll from FSX SP1. That is needed for the AI Timetable 2 Program ? Here is my folder name :- x86_microsoft.flightsimulator.simconnect_67c7c14424d61b5b_10.0.61355.0_none_ I just need the last Characters and Numbers after the last _ I copied the Simconnect.dll File from the SXS Folder on Disk 1 of FSX Deluxe Edition manually. Any help and info would be appreciated, still no response to my email to them, from genix software Regards Eddie

I managed to download, the AI Controller V2 Beta Program in the end. I used a Proxy Website to access the .zip File, I am going to try the Program tomorrow. Eddie

Hi there, Has AI Controller V2 not been released yet ? I can't find it on the internet only version 1.14 I installed FSX a few days ago, and would like to try the Beta Version 2. But when I try the following link to the V2 Beta Version gotten from this thread, it won't work :- http://www.mediafire.com/file/gi5axjbq8447tjq/AIControllerV2.zip Could someone, tell me of a Website on the internet, where you can download it from ? Any info would be appreciated Regards Eddie Winch

Hi jabloomf1230, I did a complete uninstall and then reinstalled FSX, and did the same for the required Service packs, needed to run the Program. And the Program still says, the SIMCONNECT.DLL File is missing from your Computer. When I run the .exe File, even when I run as an Administrator, the message pops up. I am not sure what is causing this problem now, do you have any ideas what i should try next and look for next ? Many thanks for replying to my thread jabloomf1230, it's very much appreciated. Regards Eddie Winch

Where should the File be located in Windows 7 ? I.e. What is the directory path ? I am really not sure how to sort this problem out ? I believe I have installed the correct Service Packs. I have the Justflight Airshow Pilot Addon, and for that I had to upgrade to FSX SP2. Will I need to revert back to the original FSX SP1 for the Utility to install ? And also could somebody provide links, to the Files I need to install, in order for the error message not to occur ? Help would be appreciated. Thankyou for your information. Eddie

Hi there, When I try to install the Shareware/Payware Program AI Timetable 2, on my Computer in FSX, I get an Error message saying :- SIMCONNECT.DLL is missing from my computer. I have 2 Simconnect.dll Files on my PC, should there only be 1 for the Program to work ? And if so which folder on my computer, does the correct one need to be in for the program to install ? And what is the full name of the correct File ? I believe I have the have installed the correct FSX Service packs SDK's etc, according to what I have read. The Path the two simconnect.dll files are currently in, in Windows 7 is :- C:\Windows\winsxs on my PC. Any help, someone could give me would be much appreciated. I emailed the technical support part of the company, that made the Program. They are called "geniX Software" yesterday, but I have not had a reply yet. Regards Eddie Winch

Hi A32xx, I have managed to get the Airport, to the correct elevation. I kept changing the numerical value in increments, in AFCAD it was -13 and in ADE 1.70 the corresponding value was -3.962 I presume meters, in the end. as that was when the AI Aircraft's wheels touched the Runway properly, I compiled the Final AFCAD File i.e. AF2_EHAM_01.bgl using ADE 1.70. As to not lose Scenery elements, which as you know can happen with the AFCAD 2.21 Program. So thankyou for all your help, so it was an elevation issue, at EHAM (Mega Airport) Rather than a Scenery clash. Thanks once again for all your help. Eddie

I have an idea now, about the problem. Will look at it, and get back to you. Eddie

Hi A32xx, I ran the ScanAFD Program and there are no duplicate AFCAD's, for EHAM. I have a Freeware Amsterdam Schipol Airport, but it is deactivated in the FS2004 Scenery Library. What should I try next ? Eddie

Hi A32xx, Thankyou for your advice, I will do what you suggest accordingly. Could those 2 Payware programs, be causing the problem I am having ? Or are you fairly convinced, it is a Scenery conflict, independent of the one I think it might be ? The new problem started, after I installed those 2 Payware addons.

I have done that allready, a while back. So that can't be the problem.

I also have Justflight Roads And Rivers Of Europe, installed in FS2004
