alanngai Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 First of all, thank for all the great freeware provided to our community. Unfortunately, I find a serious bug (at least to me) in the latest AU Traffic V.3.20. From the very first day, I used to have a Cold and Dark cockpit to start my flight but recently I find the Battery Switch and Avionic Master Switch are out of order. No matter how I switch, battery power and radio remain on. After reinstall the whole Windows for 3 times, I find the problem is come from the AU Traffic V.3.20. When I turn FTX AI International Traffic On, the problem will appear. If it was disable, it is fixed. Please fix this bugs. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Routley Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Hi Allan, That's a very odd one indeed, and hard to think of an immediate connection, or even a place to start looking. I assume you are referring to "Cold and Dark" in the PMDG NGX ? The AI International traffic produces the fault in a Reproducible way?? (ie more than once or twice). The AI traffic is pretty standard FSX architecture, so I'm not sure why it would have any effect at all on PMDG cockpit functionality. Graham may have some ideas.

alanngai Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 I mean all aircrafts, including the default 172 which I saved in my flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Eccleston Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 There are no links between the FSX Traffic files and the workings of the ‘cold and dark’ functionality so I am at a loss to understand how the two could be related. I start and finish all my flights in ‘cold and dark’ and have the FTX AI traffic selected all the time and all is still working fine. Having said that, I have recompiled the International Airlines traffic file and attached it to this post for you to try. Just unzip it and save it to your SceneryWorldScenery folder in FSX overwriting the current file. Let me know if this helps.

alanngai Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 Sorry, it doesn't work. By the way, I find the 2 files have some different in size, I don't know whether it is a hint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanTenner Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I also noticed that both switches dont work anymore. I ll give a try if they work when I turn off traffic and report then. EDIT: Just turned off all traffic in the control panel and the switches work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanngai Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 Well, I remember back in FS2004 days, there were some AI package provided flyable AI aircraft, would it be the source of the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Routley Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Interesting thought. I'll have to defer to Graham on this one ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Eccleston Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 A little research on the MyTraffic X and UT2 websites would indicate that this may be an FSX issue and seems to relate to how many AI aircraft are at the airport and how close they are to the user aircraft. I’ve finally managed to recreate your issue but only at YSSY, while YMML and YBBN are both fine for me. I’ll be away for the next 10 days so will not be able to look into this until I return. In the meantime, could you assist by checking a few of your airports and let me know if you can pinpoint any particular pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanngai Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 My pattern is if FTX Central region set to America, problem exist in US airports but not Australian airports. If region is set to Australia, no problem at all airports. Hope this help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Eccleston Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 The FTX AU traffic pack only covers Australia and New Zealand so I do not understand how it could affect your US airports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanngai Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Yes I know but it really happen. I have tested it in KORS, 1S2 and 2WA1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
