Traffic X, anyone own yet?

[harleyman]

Yes, X appended to all things we do in FSX and If we married folks play to long with FSX you may get the new add on X-wife:costumes:.

By the way, my Traffic X is in the mail.

I love that comment about the X Wife..... :woot::woot::ernae:

It is probably your scenery complexity level. Try to increase it.

darn when I increse it, it eats away my frame rate.

3 to show what I was talking about.

Boomer....You are given the order to stand down....:friday:


LOL Its a joke..I see just what you're talking about......

Can you say slightly Cheesy? Shoot em down man.....

Boomer, having seen the AI planes in them pictures, I am sticking with WOAI, the're are in a different league, admittedly at the expense of frame rates at busy internationals (sorry traffic x fans, personal opinion). I'm on a single core too and pretty happy with my setup UTX, Cloud 9 Europe landclass & WOAI. Wouldnt mind a weather / environment addon, but in no rush.

 

[harleyman]

No offense taken Guzzler....With a single core that is your best choice too.....

We all have to do what our rigs will allow....:faint:

Thanks Boomer for the shots. Yes, a little bland but at a distance they will look fine.

Oh I agree! As I said I like it well enough. If I had my druthers they would look better up close but that comes with a price & as I said, the impact of high traffic settings is negligible.

I've got to ask, Boomer, are you using MyTrafficX, or TrafficX. Your screenshots look like MyTrafficX, not the TrafficX ones on JustFlight's website.

[limjack]

No worries Boomer, I have read the wright up in PC pilot so I am sure I will enjoy the program and if harlyman likes it I will like it too.

Thanks Boomer... Although it doesn't look like the TrafficX aircraft are much "better" than MyTrafficX, MTX is still primarily populated by FS9-format AI, while according to JustFlight, TrafficX is entirely FSX native. I don't have the latter to confirm one way or the other, but do have the latest-but-one version of MTX, currently uninstalled.

Seeing as both are mentioned in numerous places on this thread, evidently there's some confusion here about which product is which! Just out of interest, can anyone who has TrafficX (i.e. the JustFlight version) tell me whether it randomises flightplans in the same way that MyTrafficX does, or whether it uses real-world-ish schedules?

In case anyone doesn't know, MTX doesn't use hand-coded flightplans. It takes a series of rules (e.g. a UAL aircraft will be based at specific places in the US, while an AFR aircraft will be based at specific places in France, BAW aircraft in the UK, etc.) and the rest is totally random. You can specify flights if you want a specific sector to happen, such as, say, twice daily Concorde flights from Heathrow to New York, but the schedules are not real. If you have default MTX installed and go to Belfast Aldergrove (EGAA), as an example, it is heaving with Ryanair and British Airways aircraft. In the real world, neither airline operates to or from the airport.

That won't bother a lot of people, but it will others, so it's worth knowing.
