Correct livery with AI traffic (real-time online ) with a320neo

Ah…so I need to select just two model types that I want to show in sim. So if I want A300 series and B700 series to show I only select one of each?

Now…Let’s say I select A319 and B739..will my CRJs still show if it is based off B738 but I have icao_generic=0 for B738?

Yes the B738 will still show up if the ICAO is correct. I personally don’t use icao_generic models anymore so i only use ICAO matches.

So all of your models have Icao_generic line removed?

Can you see all the models that way?

I don’t have the icao_generic line in my cfg’s. That way i can make sure that the spawning traffic at the airport has the model i want.

Wow…so what is the advantage (if any) of having an icao_generic=1 or 0 if you have succesfully disabled all the Asobo generic planes?

This may solve a lot of grief.

icao_generic = 1 allows you to use one single aircraft for all flights. You don’t need multiple models with different ICAO codes to cover the sky.

The downside is that the game tends to override correct ICAO matches with an icao_generic aircraft. If you have a correct match for a departing B77W the game could still spawn an icao_generic A320 instead of your B77W. That’s why i dropped the generic aircraft.

Got it. Thanks. This is very helpful.

I deleted all the original Fltsim lines that were in the B738 folder except the example for now.

Is this how the lines should look?

I also just kept the CRJ model.cfg from the original Aerosoft CRJ in the IVAO model folder instead of all the bin, xml files etc.

Why are you using the IVAO 737 if you have the CRJ from Aerosoft?

Can’t get it to show as AI in sim

I thank you for your detailed instructions but I think I am going to hold off doing all of that. I am going to take out the IVAO model package because those planes are just teasing me sitting at the gates and never moving.

I am going to settle with the megapacks and downloadable models but how can I get all of those models to show up as moving traffic. I can only seem to get A320’s moving and not the megapack 747’s, 787’s, ATR’s, DH8, and A321’s. Furthermore I have downloaded the A330 but only see the default livery and not the livery pack that I downloaded for it. It’s so frustrating using AI for me so I am leaving it to the experts and hope and pray we get AIG installer. Those people using P3D are so spoiled right now.

You need to go here: @UsableOwl6 and get C0rsten stuff and be happy…

C0rsten

4d

So here it is: Corsten´s DIY live traffic mod • Microsoft Flight Simulator

Remember, you have to do hard work to make it happen. Instuctions is easy… pretty easy to follow. Support from this point only in my discord server: https://discord.gg/QFC3mJRFCh

BobM.

First, live traffic is a mess right now, which is part of the problem. Second, I use https://www.lekseecon.nl/ (PSXseeconTraffic ) + RealTraffic to get live traffic and model and livery matching. But more involved than C0rsten mod.

Here is some updates to flightsim.to version: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uTcItPLzaIwbsCPHlcSfbM9sjwsGUMsf/view?usp=sharing

There is full CRJ700 included with 5 liveries for USA regional flights.

barely any traffic atm tbh. I was in x plane 11 live traffic, watched 10 planes land at SVO. MSFS had only one AFL flight that went off radar.

Few pics I just took. You be the judge :slight_smile: :

After about 10 min:

Here’s Seattle KSEA (I changed weather so you can see traffic as raining hard):

Traffic is not working correctly.

Edit: Waited a little longer and have more traffic.

Hi Kevnich,
Your flightsim.1 is missing icao_airline=“CRJ7". And btw those CRJ700 American Eage planes use different icao code, they use like 7 different ones (SKW, etc).
For it to show correctly in PSX + Livetraffic. In your aircraft.cfg below flightsim.01 etc you need per [flightsim] the next
Add those 3;
Title: " American Airlines CRJ700"
icao_airline=“AAL”
icao_type_designator =“CRJ7”

Those 3 in every flightsim.01,02,03 etc for it to be reconised by PSXeecon

Tip: Download all free FSX planes you can find, convert to FS2020 with MFSF Legacy converter. I have 717 to 789 as working planes with all correct liveries. (I even converted my old PMDG 777, only the gear is not working with PMDG).

I once buyed some AI traffic programs for FSX, and converted those. Even got working gear and lights. Good luck. Its a hell of a job converting and adding the codes to .cfg.

Thanks…flstsim 1 should be iaco_airline= ASH no?

Yes American Eagle has several icao codes. The ASH is one of them. I could try SKW or EGF..but it should show with ASH?

As for the lines in fltsim, the icao airline and the title are cut and paste directly from Aerosoft CRJ-700 aircraft.cfg. The mod file and textures have the same title. Not sure how changing them affects whether they show in sim?

The icao_designator usually only goes in the [general] tab? I have not seen that you need designator in each [fltsim]? I have Southwest showing in IVAO Southwest showing in sim and there is no designator in [fltsim]. Here is my IVAO Southwest:

[FLTSIM.45]

atc_id_font=“”
icao_airline = “SWA”

isUserSelectable=0
atc_parking_types=“GATE,RAMP”
atc_parking_codes=“SWA”

I’ll have to try the FSX converter. Is it on flightsim.to?

I just did a test, adding icao_type_designator=“B738” to general only works aswell. I saw in your screenshot that its showing a Southwest at the parking spot, so thats working correctly right?

As for the CRJ, did you check the aircraft.cfg has the
Title: " American Airlines CRJ700"
icao_airline=“AAL”
icao_type_designator =“CRJ7” at [General]

Haven’t figured out yet if you can use more than 1 icao_aarline, i guess it should work correctly more as one.

Yes…Southwest is working correctly. It was not working correctly with PSX until I modified the IVAO as posted. I also modified IVAO for United and American and now can see 737 Southwest, United and American all at one airport.

The CRJ doesn’t have the title or AAL icao because the AAL is for the big birds :slight_smile: Are you thinking they are not showing because I am using their correct icaos? If you check parking updates in PSX it shows the correct icaos (i.e. EGF, ASH, SKW etc) so I assume i have to use these icaos instead of AAL for them to assign to correct parking space and show in sim. Problem is I an not seeing them as live traffic either.

In the last KSEA screenshot I posted, it has Horizon Air (QXE) as a Cessna. Not sure why it is showing as a Cessna.

Just pulled one parking position. There is even an AAL for CR9 :slight_smile: That’s odd the lines won’t show when I reply.
