jmhelms Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I an using P3D4.0 on a windows gaming computer running under the latest version of Windows 10... FTX Central says NAGA is installed correctly....I see the FTX AI planes in my SimObjects/Airplanes folder...in FTX Central I have it full on and I think my Scenery/World/scenery reflects that.... here are what I think are the relevant entries in that folder: Traffic_FTX NA GA Traffic Off File.bgl.OFF Traffic_FTX NA GA Traffic_Abbrev Call Signs.bgl.OFF Traffic_FTX NA GA Traffic_Full Call Signs.bgl Traffic_FTX NA Large Business Jets Off File.bgl.OFF Traffic_FTX NA Large Business Jets_Abbrev Call Signs.bgl.OFF Traffic_FTX NA Large Business Jets_Full Call Signs.bgl and trafficAircraft.bgl.DISABLED-FOR-FTX-AI I still no planes on the ground at KBOS (Boston)...any thoughts? All help appreciated... Thanks, John H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethro VH-JET Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hello John, This is a limitation of the scope of the FTX NA GA AI package, it does not cover areas outside PNW in general, unless an Orbx airfield has a specific traffic bgl for that airfield it will use default traffic, otherwise it will use NA GA AI models as required by the specific FTX traffic bgl. Please open the Control panel for "North American AI Traffic" and check the box to enable "FSX default traffic". Boston will be populated by AI planes from default or any other AI utility or AI flightplans depending on the percentage slider for AI aircraft in your settings.

jmhelms Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hi Jeff....thanks for the heads-up...why is this limitation not stated clearly by Orbx?...I spent way too much time fooling with this issue...and I realize the software is free... but still, I would expect more from Orbx... MY problem now is no working default AI in P3D4.0... even though I have the "trafficAircraft.blg" file in my scenery/world/scenery folder...any thoughts on this issue will be appreciated, though this may not be your area of expertise... Thanks for the help...John H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hello John, in point of fact it does say what the AI traffic pack does. Quote Produced by Graham Eccleston, Orbx is proud to offer this superb AI traffic package covering GA traffic across our North American Regions and FTX airports. I suppose it does not explicitly state what it does not do but one should not expect a product description to include a list of things that it is not capable of. As to the absence of AI traffic, there is nothing in the AI traffic for P3D v4 that could cause this, is it possible that there could be other third party traffic files in your scenery\world\scenery folder or elsewhere?

jmhelms Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hi Nick...thanks for the reply....the manual for the software says that you do not have to have the Orbx scenery installed... while I have purchased all the Orbx NA software, I have not installed it in my P3D4.00...I just tried the NAGA in Seattle/Tacoma and got no AI Planes on the ground...and I checked my P3D4.00 files for other traffic files and found none, save for two Orbx related in my Scenery/world/scenery folder as follows: Traffic_Orbx_SCA_GA_FSX.bgl Traffic_Orbx_Nor-GA-FSX.bgl Are these files supposed to be there?...are they supposed to be "off"?... In the meantime, I will upgrade to P3D4.3, hope for the best and if no AI traffic, consider Ulitmate Traffic Live, which I have read works...will it conflict with NAGA?... Thanks for any further help...John H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Indeed you do not have to have any Orbx scenery installed but the aircraft nevertheless do not visit any locations that are not also Orbx products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmhelms Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 Thanks for reply Nick...still get no AI planes, without Orbx scenery but in Orbx regions...... And can you comment on the extra "Traffic" files I describe above? Thanks, John H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Hello, all these are Orbx files Traffic_Orbx_SCA_GA_FSX.bgl Traffic_Orbx_Nor-GA-FSX.bgl Traffic_FTX NA GA Traffic Off File.bgl.OFF Traffic_FTX NA GA Traffic_Abbrev Call Signs.bgl.OFF Traffic_FTX NA GA Traffic_Full Call Signs.bgl Traffic_FTX NA Large Business Jets Off File.bgl.OFF Traffic_FTX NA Large Business Jets_Abbrev Call Signs.bgl.OFF Traffic_FTX NA Large Business Jets_Full Call Signs.bgl trafficAircraft.bgl is the only file, I believe, that enables all the P3D v4 default AI traffic.
