I don't understand why, but it's cool!

Hi


I bought, about two weeks, in a sold, Traffic 360 for FSX, (it's a modern traffic payware pack).

In FSX:

Because i want to see also, the Classic AI aircrafts, i mix 1959 and 1962 AI world traffic, and i put it in one scenery directory, i also put others "fake static" classic aircraft traffic .bgl on same scenery
(those i put in on FS91 version of my LFLY scenery (The Caravelles and the 2 ponts)

I start the flight, on LFLY, and i see my "static" caravelles and Breguet Deux ponts, over tarmac of LFLY 1960.

After that, i move to Heathrow (standard ORBX England Heathrow), i expect to see mix aircraft in this huge airport, the new ones, and the classic ones, but i only see the classic ones of CC AI. Comets, DC-8, etc


I go to Scenery, i uncheck Classic AI traffic, i come back to Heathrow, i see all the modern traffic,
I activate again the Classi AI traffic, the modern traffic of Traffic 360, dissapear...

Very strange, because the .bgl of Traffic 360, is on World/scenery, i means, it's always active!!!

I not understand what is happening,
but it's cool, i can switch from one to another all time without restart simulator and heavy manipulations

If someone got an idea of what happens... i would like to know


Cheers

Hi,

The Classic traffic BGL files are in FS9 format. The Traffic 360 BGL files are in FSX format. FSX will only read ONE format, and if you have both, it will read the FS9 format and IGNORE the FSX format.

The only choice you have is to convert my traffic BGL files to FSX format, using a utility like AI Flight Planner:

Hope this helps,

Thanks Tom for answer,

It's cool, that's mean, that if want use both but not both together, i can activate one or other, and have modern of old ai traffic.

Yes, you can use them separately. I don't know if reloading the Scenery Library will swap formats, or you have to restart FSX.

It's better, to restart FSX, if not, the AI traffic (in both versions), is cumulated, each time yo go to scenery library, and come back.
