MAIW Aircraft disappeared

Post by RobinHague »

Ihad successfully downloaded and installed all the MAIW packages for FSX (using the conversion guide). All ran OK until I had a problem with FSX. I had to uninstall FSX, move it to it's own partition. and re install. I saved all the MAIW files and replaced them in the new installation (changed the fsx.cfg simobjects to include MAIW). MAIW still appears in FSX Scenery and my Super Traffic Board recognises the MAIW installation. BUT - There are no AI aircraft in any of their airports now.
Have I missed a vital bit out when I re installed FSX?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

I do not run FSX, but my understanding is that in FSX, even if you have one single FS9 traffic filed installed, it will wipe out ALL of your other traffic files and you won't see any traffic in FSX at all.

You might make sure that ALL of your MAIW traffic files have been converted to FSX standards.

Mike, Thanks, it's a thought; I just wonder how one sets about doing that?

That's a good question, not being an FSX user, I'm not sure.

Someone on here will know.

Hope so, otherwise it looks like starting from square one, and that took a LONG time!
