maxro 7 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Dear Forum, As the title says, I was wondering what the best ai addon is. I have UTL, but I don't like very much because it has a slow UI, but the matching is pretty good. I also want the new addon to work with ProATCx. Thanks, Max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you fly online, and don't need traffic files for AI Aircraft, then I highly recommend the freeware FLAI. But FLAI does not come with any traffic files, so the liveries will only work in an online environment. I have UTL (I don't use anymore as I'm using FLAI) and even though development as all but stopped on the product I did like it. Best wishes.

Thanks, Dave Traffic files tell AI Aircraft when and where to fly when you're using FSX/P3D ATC. Without them, you won't see any AI aircraft when using default ATC.

maxro 7 Posted September 7, 2018 Author Share Posted September 7, 2018 I don't like flying offline, because the ATC isn't so good and ProATCx doesn't work well sometimes. I'll try FLAI. 22 minutes ago, DaveCT2003 said: I have UTL (I don't use anymore as I'm using FLAI) and even though development as all but stopped on the product I did like it.

PatrickZ 300 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 As for flying offline, you can always compile your own traffic files. Basically a traffic file consists of three components, namely: - Aircraft (a list of AI aircraft installed on your system you want the traffic file to use) - Airports (a list of airports you want your AI aircraft to visit) - Flightplans (a list of what plane flies from where to where at what time and under what flight number) Each of those can be written in a text file and together those text files can be compiled into a BGL file for Flight Simulator. You can either write your own or use some pre-written. Alpha India Group offers them for a huge number of airlines for free. It takes a lot of work, but you can perfect your AI traffic to exactly match your wishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
