Yeah, I'm afraid so, Steve. I have to say I was extremely disappointed when I saw that list.

Re: A brand new MS Flight Simulator is coming...

Good to know that you've given it a go, Tuskin. You don't have to go back too far in this thread to see more info about MSFS behaviour with lots of AI plans active. As you'll discover as you look through this site, it's not unusual for one aircraft to have hundreds of different subtypes and liveries...

Re: A brand new MS Flight Simulator is coming...

The biggest issue currently is that at about 50 AI aircraft active, the sim will crash. Secondly, installing multiple liveries of AI aircraft is not a trivial exercise; indeed, I've not seen it achieved yet. Flight plans are similar to FSX, and it's possible to import converted FSX aircaft into MSFS...

Re: A brand new MS Flight Simulator is coming...

It's of course possible that the clever guys over at AIG will be able to reverse-engineer the existing AI engine to the point where some custom AI will be possible. But they're not there yet, and there are already (as mentioned in this thread) some obstacles that appear at present to be insurmountab...

Re: A brand new MS Flight Simulator is coming...

Thanks for the info. It is nice to see that some of the AI features are getting sorted. Asobo have released a development timeline, showing roughly when they expect to introduce new features or address identified problems. AI is pretty much at the bottom of the list, with no defined year (years are...

Re: FSX AFCAD for RAF Honington

The payware UK2000 VFR series includes Honington, but it's more or less as it appears now as the RAF Regt. depot, with new accommodation blocks on the airfield.

It's fairly straightforward to convert the UKMil/JY Honington scenery to FSX using ADE and MCX (for your own use only).

Re: RAF Phenom/ Texan

Frankly, I'm surprised they're in RAF markings at all! They don't belong to the RAF, they're not operated by the RAF, and I'm pretty sure the RAF would really rather do away with the whole MFTS disaster.

But that's another topic, I guess!

Re: A brand new MS Flight Simulator is coming...

For something a little closer to progress, we also have the arrival of P3Dv5.1 and its rather more complete SDK!

Re: A brand new MS Flight Simulator is coming...

SDK 0.7.0 is out. No significant changes from an AI perspective. There have been no changes to the documentation since 0.5.0, so it's a bit difficult to tell what's changed. There are some changes to the animated sample files. Apparently, jetways now work.

Re: MSFS2020

I totally agree, Steve. I think a year may even be a conservative guess to cure that bug. On my set up (P3Dv4), with Ultimate Traffic Live, some AIG stuff and pretty much everything MAIW's done, plus some UkMil and ACG, and Orbx traffic as well, it's not unusual to see 3-500 AI aircraft being genera...

I think most of the Dee Waldron models are available on Henry's site at http://htai-models.com/downloads/dwai/f ... index.html The BAC 111 available there appears to be version 3.

Eventually, of course. But Asobo are giving no clues as to when they will be introduced to the sim.

Re: Eurofighter Typhoon

Totally understand about FS9, John. While it won’t be what the hard-core FS9-ers want to hear, there is a huge back-catalogue of stuff for them to enjoy as long as they wish, and perhaps a cottage industry will develop in reverse-engineering FSX/P3D models and scenery for FS9! It’s interesting that ...

Re: A brand new MS Flight Simulator is coming...

It does appear that for now there is a hard limit to how many live AI flight plan sectors the sim can cope with before a CTD. But of course the SDK for AI is not available as yet, so the nuts and bolts are speculation only. From what's been reported, I suspect that Asobo will be able to get to the b...

This is the search result for FS9 EGYP Mount Pleasant at Avsim. As you can see, there are two AFCAD-only sceneries, one of which refers to a scenery "s_atlcv2.zip", which at one time was available on Flightsim.com (it isn't now) and which provided the buildings to go with the bare AFCAD m...

I think you're referring to Mike Hudson's FSX scenery here.

Re: Eurofighter Typhoon

Work is still ongoing on updates for Italy. This image is Pratica del Mare (LIRE). It's a complete rebuild of the AFCAD for John Stinstrom's scenery to put it in the right place to allow a photoreal background from SBX. This is in FSX. I note that the original AFCAD we have for the airfield is an 'a...

Re: A brand new MS Flight Simulator is coming...

Don has now got AIFP working for FS20, using default AI aircraft. However, the post following his linked below gives a link to a procedure for importing FSX AI into FS20. Looks like we may be getting close to MAIW for FS20!
