Hi Zsolt,
Don't give up yet, you're nearly there! You will soon get the hang of it!
Before you use TTools to compile the flightplans, you must first make sure that the titles are correct. When you have done that, you are then ready to run TTools and compile the 3 .txt files into a Traffic.bgl file.
As the others have already said, you must make the "title=" entries match each other
exactly.
Here is an example
Aircraft.txt file, which is one of the 3 files TTools will need to make your flightplan:
AC#1,244,"DWAI HS748 BSF VT-EAT"
AC#2,244,"DWAI HS748 BSF VT-EAV"
AC#3,244,"DWAI HS748 BSF VT-EHL"
AC#4,289,"HTAI Beechcraft King Air B200 4B-S ARC VT-ENL"
AC#5,289,"HTAI Beechcraft King Air B200 4B-S ARC VT-ENM"
AC#6,289,"HTAI Beechcraft King Air B200 4B-S ARC VT-EPA"
AC#7,408,"HTAI Gates Learjet 29 VT-EHS"
AC#8,408,"HTAI Gates Learjet 29 VT-EIH"
There is also an
Airports.txt file (this should contain the ICAO codes of
all the airports visited by the aircraft in your flightplan), and a
Flightplans.txt file.
Now, let's look at the last entry in the list above:
AC#8,408,"
HTAI Gates Learjet 29 VT-EIH"
Look at this "^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^" in the line above, the red bit
between the two " " symbols. This is the
title of one of the aircraft that will be used in my flightplan, and the letters have to
exactly match an entry in a file in my FS9 installation.
If you go into your "Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft" folder and go to the folder that contains the AI aircraft you want to use, you will find a file called "
aircraft.cfg". Open this file with notepad, and look for a section where there are lots of entries that start with the line:
[fltsim.0]
Then further down you will find the next one:
[fltsim.1]
etc.
These entries are where all your aircraft are specified. They will usually all be together, either at the top of the "
aircraft.cfg" file, or at the bottom.
Let's have a look at my example. I've gone to my Aircraft folder and found my Learjet folder. I've opened the "
aircraft.cfg", and I'm looking at the [fltsim.x] entry that specifies the Learjet that I want to appear in my flightplan as "AC#8":
[fltsim.1]
title=HTAI Gates Learjet 29 VT-EIH
<<<<<<< THIS IS THE IMPORTANT LINE
sim=AI Gates Learjet 25
model=
texture=Gates Learjet 29_VT-EIH
ui_variation=ARC VT-EIH
ui_manufacturer=HTAI
ui_type=Learjet 29
atc_airline=
atc_parking_codes=ARC
atc_parking_types=RAMP
atc_heavy=0
Within all of these [fltsim.x] entries the first line after [fltsim.x] is usually:
title=*********
This has to be
exactly the same as what you have
inbetween the " " symbols in the
Aircraft.txt file that you use with TTools to make your flightplan. Also notice that in the above entry in the "
aircraft.cfg" file, there are no " " symbols. They are only in the
aircraft.txt file.
It is usually best to
copy the entry you have in the "
aircraft.cfg" file, and
paste it into the
aircraft.txt file, rather than the other way round.
Now save the text file, and start TTools
