TE Next Generation NG AI PACKAGE for FS9

We are pleased to offer this AI package which we hope will add to the atmosphere and enhance your flying pleasure

Please note that all original copyrights apply and that AI facilities in FS9 and texture mapping in some aircraft used for AI is limited compared to full user flyable aircraft. In particular FDEs are often not very refined and some aircraft (particularly low polygon versions) do not have independent texturing on both sides of the fuselage therefore some compromise must be accepted. Framerates will vary.

The package represents inaugural low cost flights from Havana to:


Fort Lauderdale - KFLL
Fort Myers - KRSW
Pensacola - KPNS
Houston - KIAH
San Jose - MROC
Montego Bay - MKJS
Tampico - MMTM
La Ceiba - MHLC
Merida - MMMD
Port-au-Prince - MTPP

 

It features 5 flights between 11 airports by 5 x 737-700w aircraft .

Each aircraft's tail represents a different Cuban artist's work including:

Ruben Manuel Beltran Guerra

Miguel Angel Botalin

Antonio ferrer Cabello

Joherms Quiala Brooks

Flight numbers have been randomised to keep them apart from any flights the user might be making.

All of that said I'm sure that you will get pleasure from this package.

Installation:

Inside the zip you will have found 4 folders :-

'Docs' folder

Which you are reading from now.

'For your FS folder' folder

Contains the aircraft, the effects, and the Traffic_TE_NG_2.bgl file.

N.B. I have included as an option a tweaked AI_PLAYR.DLL module file which will increase AI taxi speed to a more realistic 32kts - back up your original first.

'AI source files'

The source-files folder contains the aircraft_TE.txt, airports_TE.txt and flightplans_TE.txt files that were used with TTools v2 by Lee Swordy to complile the Traffic bgl. Feel free to modify these if you want to. There are many free utilities available to view the timetables in detail. I use AITM. These are not needed for the AI to work.

'Editvoicepack import files' folder

Contains files to import to FS9 using the Editvoicepack program and is highly recommended. Editvoicepack is free and TE aircraft will use the 'Tradex' radio callsign.

-------------------------

Don't forget that you can view and follow AI aicraft using Traffic Explorer included in the traffic SDK from Microsoft. These aircraft have reverse thrust sounds implemented.

Useful AI utilities:

AI Contrail generator 1.0.0.1 made by Markus Brunner in the AVSIM library is very useful. The program scans every installed aircraft of FS2004 for the "Contrail" entry. If no entry is found it adds a selectable effect to the aircraft file. Also the "max_contrail_temperature" value would be set.

FS Aircraft Typer - FSAT by Janosoft is also very useful. It allows you to make AI aircraft invisible to the FS Aircraft select menu and speeds up FS loading time.

If you suffer from too many AI flights going missed then try FS2004 Flight Simulator AISmooth by SG-Flightware (Michael Sagner)

AISmooth will reduce the number of go-arounds of AI traffic at your airport drastically. aismooth_v111a.zip
