Kuwaiti Mirage's and Building FP's

[cgold]

I was wondering how to get started on how to build traffic .bgl's like how MAIW AI traffic is built. I essentially want to replace the Kuwaiti F/A-18's I have installed in FS2004 with the Mirage F-1's that Pearson did a while ago. Plus, I can learn how to compile military FP's for the many MiG's that he has done as well. (for something the Kuwaiti Mirage's to go chase... )

If you download TrafficTools and AFCAD2, both by Lee Swordy, and read the manuals, that will give you all the basics you need to know about writing and constructing Flightplans. After that, there is a whole world of tips and tricks to pick up - but start with those two should kick you off. You can get them from the essential files list at flightsim.com

Warning, once you learn how to do it, it becomes very addicting. It will start out small at first and then the next thing you know you are creating flight plans for every air force in South America....

That's what i thought at first as well, no-one warned me though

I did a whole load of them a while back if you want them. Just type in Daniel Reeves on avsim. If you want to create your own then that's your prerogative, best to have 2 of the same thing rather than none at all

I've done some FP's for Russia (and that was a real doozy...), but I was curious how to make raw FP's into .bgl's.

I found a .bgl flightplan decompiler on avsim and that's helping me out tremendously... I found some IRIAF fighter FP's, but they were in .bgl format...
Now I can break them down into the three .txt files we all need and now it's the tedious name-assign game...

TTools will do just that. It'll be on Avsim somewhere

I realized that after I compiled the traffic files... It goes both ways... X-/
Learn something new every day... thanks for the help, though.
Got some Kuwaiti Mirages flying, a big part of the IRIAF, IrAF, and a few other outliers flying due to this nice little discovery...
