Model Matching File for VATSIM


Recommended Posts

I have created a project for generating a model matching file for vPilot that allows the Simple Traffic liveries to appear for a variety of aircraft on VATSIM. I used some Python scripts to generate a file that matches a number of ICAO aircraft codes that are popular on VATSIM with the closest-matching Simple Traffic models and liveries. You do not need to run the scripts to use the model matching file. Just download the release and copy the simple_traffic.vmr file from the zip file.

 

Project is here: https://github.com/hallidave/simple-traffic-vpilot

Release is here: https://github.com/hallidave/simple-traffic-vpilot/releases

 

I've only done some basic testing, but it seems to work quite well for me. Let me know if you have any questions or problems.

I included the scripts because they are not very big it was easy to do. If you are happy with the model matching file as it is, there is no reason to run the scripts.

 

The scripts are only necessary if the Aerosoft livery names change or if you want to add or remove aircraft from the model matching file. You can also just manually edit the simple_traffic.tmr file with a text editor if you prefer.

Amazing, thanks!

Will this also work if I buy Simple Traffic via the MSFS Marketplace? IMHO files downloaded via Marketplace can (?) or are (?) encrypted.

Indeed, at this moment I would NOT assume it will work, but if it is possible we will make sure people know that.
