AI traffic problems in FSX
« on: September 02, 2013, 12:21:25 PM »
I keep seeing the same problem being discussed in the forums concerning AI traffic not working/showing up in FSX.  Although the solution has been given many times I'll try and answer it with a post to the solution.
The problem:
AI traffic is not showing up after installing files.
The reason:
IF you have even one FS9 specific AI file in your FSX installation even if it is for an airport on the other side of the world from where you normally fly it will deactivate all FSX specific AI files so they fail to work.
The solution:
download and install Don Grovestine's program named AI Flight Planner.  Here is a link:

On the left at the bottom of the menu box click on "Development Release"  and download the program

AIFP2208(f).zip

The program does many things for AI files but you are interested in finding and converting any FS9 AI files in your FSX install to FSX AI files.  The program will do this for you.  There is a manual that explains how to do this please take the time to read it, after all it will fix your problem so you need to know how.
That it, bing, bang, boom! go fly with the AI.
