• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Anybody know of a program to turn planes or helicopters into ai craft? I have fsx GA-Traffic but it does not list my helicopters.

Thanks for your time.

Traffic toolbox

I have configured the traffic toolbox.dll that's in the SDK, But it won't show up in the addon menu in FS. Yes I followed the directions that's in the SDK document. Any suggestions?

Hi,
There is no program to turn pilotable aircraft into AI as such. And helicopters are not in the default GA traffic.
A couple of things:
- It would not be a good idea to turn pilotable aircraft into AI as they eat frame rates because they are too "detailed" and they are not configured to be used as AI.
- The easiest way to add AI aircraft would be (IMHO) to download the World of AI installer and its packages (www.world-of-ai.com). There are no heli's included though.
- You can find AI heli's in Military AI Works (www.militaryaiworks.com) or you could try Holger Sandmann's AI heli packages (they are for FS9 but work in FSX) but then you still would need to know how to add the craft, the airports and the flightplans and compile a traffic file. For that there is (amongst others) AI Flight Planner (AIFP) info on which is to be found under forum/tools/tools support/AI Flight Planner.
- Regarding the toolbox, check the SDK Installation forum (first Sticky).
 
What I have done in the past is rename them in the CFG file as say Fuel Truck AI and the Sim ID also the Aircraft name so not to get confused with the original Aircraft and maybe add parking codes,then when in AIPlanner they show up as AI Aircraft,this works with vehicles ever time as I have then driving around RAF Coningsby all day.
You could try this with Aircraft that fly.......
