I've been working on this for a while with Giacomo (james84). We decided that I'll make the repaints and he will do the afcad and flightplans.

Here's a sneak peek of the repaints:

Giacomo still hasn't finished the afcad and the flightplans, when he finished, he will post in this thread.

Cheers!

Which AFCAD?
A new version of the already done Trapani-Birgi LICT?

Paints are wonderful

Thanks Giorgio!

Unfortunately, only James the one who knows, he will post in this thread if he has already finished.

Just wait for it.

Cheers!

Ihihih!
The Trapani scenery is an improvement of the one I did some time ago, whereas the flightplans will be completely new and will feature the 14 remaining aircrafts (13 ADF+ one B)!

Gentlement, I need your help.
In the new scenery file I added the missing runway. It is closed and not provided with an ILS, so it is substantially a taxiway.
I'm checking if everything works correctly and noticed that the F-16s taxi on the pattern shown on the following image (the red line)

I would like them to follow the green line. How can I do that? I played around with the orientation of the taxiways and the runways but can't sort it out...

AI aircraft follow the shortest route. So if the red route is deemed by the AI engine to be the quickest route you have to alter that.
Would closing the taxiway not do want you want?

If not you will either have to create a pipe for the aircraft taxying out and a separate one for them taxying back in again, which can seriously damage your markings, or you can break the taxiway and have a node at either end of the break on top of each other. It will look like a simple taxiway, but with no connection no AI aircraft will use it.

Is the link on the parallel runway a runway link? In that case try changing it to a taxiway link (even if it's on a runway, the runway is closed anyway so it doesn't matter).

What your AI does now is use a portion of the parallel runway because it has no choice. As soon as it encounters a suitable taxiway link again to get to the holding, it will get off the parallel runway.

Thanks for answering, I'll test both the solutions and let you know!

Ok, I opted for Tirithon's solution. I changed the whole runway links into taxiways, so I have a runway which actually works as a taxiway.
But there is another small issue: the commercial aircrafts don't use the tunway/taxiway, they make a u-turn and get to the terminal (they are above all Ryanair aircrafts so one might say this is NOT an issue!)

I've had that before. I tricked the AI a bit by running a 1m apron route from roughly where they were u-turning to the taxi-exit I wanted them to take. It doesn't always work, but you never know!

Hmmm... and if I change the runway segment into a taxiway? I'll try it at home...

james84 · Post by **james84** » 07 Mar 2011, 21:29

Done!
Thanks, Regan! I used a similar solution: I just overlapped an apron link on the runway one!

Gentlemen, Tatit has finally uploaded the package

Thanks guys.....and I've just installed more this afternoon, emptying my inbox and now there's more; sheesh!!

james84 · Post by **james84** » 19 Mar 2011, 17:32

That's life!

Ah! If you have my first version of Trapani, overwrite it with this one!

Good job.

Thaks to all involved.

Really?

Post by **timbob1** » 20 Mar 2011, 06:40

Yeah, luckily most photo imaging of Italian bases is airbrushed out to a degree so yes it works well. clever lad

Tried posting an image but I made the silly move and upgraded to IE9 so now I can't access e-mails or upload, good old MSN

Does somebody know where to find or is willing to make their callsign "BRANDY" for FS9.
Thanks
