Tim and Martin, I am kind of glad this has come to light because we really do need to know how to move forwards on Scenery Packages, predominantly for inclusion within the MSFS environment. You won’t have seen this Tim, but Martin you might have as it is posted in the MAIW Developer Area. I firmly b...

Incidentally, there is a Binbrook for MSFS, although Asobo reallocated EGXB to a farm!? ….I think realistically, we are now looking ahead to what MSFS2024 brings. Presuming that we can get the AI Aircraft into the Sim, Wether it be natively or “piggybacking” using the AIG TC injector, we’ll then be...

....now,now boy's!!

I agree John and indeed this can be achieved.

.......and the painted F6 using the same Technique.

Steve, Yes you are correct, I had inadvertently used the wrong Comp Texture on the F6 JYAI Lightning model in the shots. Here's a couple of new shots with the correct Texture, https://i.postimg.cc/QxcVX1Vh/Screenshot-2023-11-09-211938.png https://i.postimg.cc/XYDRmD3J/Screenshot-2023-11-09-212303.pn...

Yes, ( Steve ) the exercise has been a success. The primary objective being, to see if it was possible to bring the detail level of the Texturing from a previous generation Sim, right up to date using the current material properties available to us now. Whilst we have already achieved a lot on this ...

Hi All, To further test the capabilities of the MSFS PBR material parameters, I chose Johns beautiful JYAI Lightning F1 model. It provided the unique opportunity to have both " Bare Metal" and "Painted" Surfaces and what you are seeing has been solely developed, from the Paint ki...

...A couple more videos then - These are JYAI F-15E's Ai Traffic Aircraft, injected using the AIG Traffic Controller, but under Native control by the MSFS AI Traffic Engine. https://peterabeeby68.wistia.com/medias/iqo9nz9tbz https://peterabeeby68.wistia.com/medias/mz2usgfj2f, ( Please don't be too c...

https://i.postimg.cc/hj5wPsdy/Screenshot-2023-10-05-120423.png Hi, Just had word from Kai over at AIG, the latest Public release of the AIG Traffic Controller, version 0.7.3.5 includes MAIW Traffic File ( BGL. File) support, is now available from their website. http://www.alpha-india.net/software/ ...

.....by no means an expert, I had a go at making a video -

Enjoy !

Hi John, Sorry for the late reply. In the early days of conversion, the emphasis was very much on keeping things as simple as possible and I thought that using the "Simple Aircraft" template gave us the quickest route to getting the model into the Sim. As we progressed, I think by the time...

Hi John, I hope your well my friend. Regarding your question, the "Simple Aircraft" template from the SDK samples folder was used primarily for the purpose of the Model Validation part of the MSFS compiler process only. The Flight Dynamics is handled mainly by the flight_model.cfg file. We...

Hi All, I just wanted to update you on the progress that has been made using the AIG TC ( Traffic Controller Beta Version with MAIW Support ). Testing has continued for a few months now and I must say that I am very pleased with the results. As mentioned earlier on in the posting, the Traffic Contro...

Pete, Ian's EGUL, as nice as it is...even with static scenery present, is a ghost town and really hope one day the F15's and F35's can grace the skies. I reinstalled P3D but quickly went back to MSFS as the sim just offers too much scenic goodness. Civil AI delt with via justflight and fsltl certai...

John's AI aircraft are looking so much better than DC's flyable jets, that's unbelievable.... ....and to think Manfred, we barely touched the surface with the full extent of what could be achieved with the MSFS PBR options available to us. In short, there is the scope to further enhance what has al...

Hi John, .........came across these " bad boys " whilst testing continues with the AIG Traffic Controller injection tool at Lakenheath. I take it that they were just visiting and indeed they will be A-10A's from either the Alconbury or Woodbridge/Bentwaters Traffic Packages. To be honest, ...

Hi guys. Is there a way I can get military ai aircraft working in msfs using the legacy importer as well as using ai flight planner? :?: Yes, you have to bare in mind however that the MSFS AI Offline System is currently broken, but it is possible to put FSX AI Aircraft models into MSFS, in the way ...

...couldn't resist John, this one is for you my friend !!

.... I wasn't expecting to see these " Bad Boy's " here LOL -
