Hello. What am I doing wrong?

I have a problem with the scenery.
After installing, for example: "Aérospatiale Alouette II - FSX/P3D (JYAI)," everything is fine.

The scenery works. The radar antenna also rotates in Fritzlar.
But the helicopter doesn't appear anywhere.
Or the P3-Orion in Norholz. Otherwise, everything is fine. AI traffic also works very well with" World of AI".

My Installation:
Sim:
FSX Professional with the Acceleration Pack,
SP-1, and SP-2 works very well.
It runs on MS Windows 7 64-bit in a Virtual Machine under MS Windows 10 64-bit.
I have 64 GB of RAM, and the CPU is an AMD RYZEN 5700X-3D.

Assuming all the required files are installed in the correct places, 99% of the time when AI aircraft fail to show in FSX or P3D, is because there is one or more traffic files active in the catchment area, that are in FS9 format. These files use a different day of the week notation compared to FSX and P3D. When the AI engine encounters them, it gets confused and does not display the aircraft.

You can test for, and convert any FS9 files found, by using the scan feature in the top menu of AI Flight Planner:

Scan your scenery/world/scenery folder in the first instance, but you may also need to test any traffic files that may be present in local scenery folders.

Let us know how you get on and we can advise further if necessary.

To add to what John has said, if you are using World of AI without any modifications then the traffic files will be in FS9 format and therefore definitely presenting an issue that will need to be fixed in the way that he has described.

The late Don Grovestine explained it once like this: if in FSX there is even only ONE FS9-format traffic file within the scope of the files FSX can see, then ONLY the FS9 traffic will be displayed. No FSX-format traffic will appear.

The same is true for P3D, if there are any FS9 traffic files in a P3D installation, only the FS9 traffic will appear.

AIFP will convert FS9-format traffic files to the FSX format easily, you just have to find ALL the FS9 files, as John indicates.
