Will you be doing a World of AI package? That is how i discovered this great site!

Disreguard, I found it on WoAI.

Apologies to all of you. Due to a small error in the Aircraft Configuration file ATC could not identify the correct model.

Please find attached replacement which should be copied to the E-6 folder, over-writing the original.

EDIT: due to screw-up by yours truly, I will post a proper a/c cfg file shortly at the end of this thread.

Cheers

Stewart

What has been changed in the new aircraft.cfg file? Cause when I put the new cfg file in that planes did not show up. Then I went back to the original cfg file the plane did show up.

ACA2005 showed a duplicate aircraft title. I always error check everything. This program is super for keeping your flightsim error free.

Aircraft Analyzer 2005

ACA2005 is a program which scans the [fltsim] sections of the aircraft.cfg files for all kind of errors and gives you the possibility to edit these sections. Also there is a possibility to create a timetable of the flights to and from an airport and to list the installed flightplans. See the documentation for more details.

Hi Joseph,

LOL I haven't a clue how this happened mate, but for some reason my cfg now has the e3f listed as the model.

If you want to just edit the original, just paste:

[General]
atc_type=silent
atc_model=E6

into the cfg file.

Meantime I'll go and try and find what the hell happened to me air file

Cheers

Stewart

Yeah and perhaps if you were to use ACA2007 as I do, then you will not get these erronious reports. I have also manually checked and there are no duplicates that I can see.

Anyone else having double vision with this one?

Cheers

Hi Joseph,

I have checked through the package and the cfg I posted, and all seems to be okay dokey.

Can you be a wee bit more specific on what the problems were, before I re-post the file?

Cheers

Stewart

Joseph29 · Post by **Joseph29** » 26 Nov 2006, 01:29

I don't know. I installed the new cfg file, then went to Tinker AFB and no planes were there. I then put back the original cfg file and went back to Tinker at the same time as before and the planes were there.

Stewart Pearson · Post by **Stewart Pearson** » 26 Nov 2006, 01:40

Hi Joseph,

I found the problem. The naming was changed for inclusion with the WoA installer.

The aircraft cfg I posted was pre-installer. My bad, my apologies.

I'll post the amended one in the next minute.

Sorry for inconvenience.

Stewart

Sorry for the incorrect file which I uploaded earlier.

Entirely my fault

Here is the correct one, which should solve any issues.

Cheers

One more question. Does the 737-600 have a more specific parking code (right now it has MOO2 for a code)? If it doesn't I am going to make one up. (E6T the T is for Training)

Post by **btaylo24** » 27 Nov 2006, 02:29

Dont think it does have a specific code as I was not sure where the 737 parked
Please feel free to make any adjustment to the AFCAD as u require on your setup

Sure is a lovely E6B model Elvis did, and great repaints by Graham King....(I love that 737 painted up like that)

Also thanks to Chris P for his AFCAD!

A real team effort!

I am getting an error with the WOA installer. I have downloaded and installed a fresh copy of 2.3 and also the .Net framework 2.0. When I run the installer I get the following error message and then it hangs when I try to ignore the error.

I then tried unzipping for a manual install. That appears to be OK, except I do not know where to put the WOA.cfg item. Also I note that the AFCADs with the MAIW prefix will not open with AFCAD. Should those be renamed to something else?

I only have a C-130 and a KC-135 showing up on the ramp. What should I be seeing? (At 8 AM).

Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

That sounds like an error on the actual installer. You'd probably get a speedier response by posting on the WoA forums at;

Sorry can't be of more help, but as Donald Sutherland said in "Kelly's Heroes".

"Hey I just ride in them, I don't know what makes them work"

Did a manual install and it all appears to be working now. Still haven't seen the 737 but I am sure it will turn up. Still don't have an answer about the automated install (I hate those), but when I used the manual setup and then loaded the 3 correct files to Traffic Tools, it all works.
I still don't know what the WOA.cfg does.
