Hello everbody.
I've got a problem in my FS2004 AI Flight Plans. I actually make my own flight plans and I matches them with the aircrafts that I have in FS2004. Also, I have downloaded some of the CONTINENTAL AI PACKAGE from Simviation website. The problem that I am facing is that because of I have lots of flight plans my FS2004, the computer or the game freeses while I am in the middle of a flight from an airport to another. However, I don't want to erase the flight plans that I made, I really like them and they are working succesfully. So please help me out and give me some solutions about how to fix my problem. To be more specific, the problem that I am facing is that when the computer freezes, a famailier sign appears (I think you guys maybe familier with it) with two choices [send error report Or don't send report] I think some of you guys maybe familier with this menu or sign. Any way your help will be very much appriciated and thanx.

Depending on how much AI traffic and what AI planes you are using your computer can freeze. I know from experience. Roll Eyes

Some planes are too graphics intensive and having several of them flying around can cripple your gaming experience.

I have TONS of AI traffic added to the game, so much that I have my traffic slide bar pushed back to around 25% or 30% and still there are plenty of planes up in the air with me.

If you don't want to get rid of some of the traffic or change the planes the AI is flying the only advice I can think of is get more RAM/faster hard drive/faster processor/faster computer all together.

Why yes, I am a noobie/newbie/knewbie

For AI planes... make sure that you have assigned only low polygon models with minimal or no panels made for AI use. The stuff from Project AI is good.

Also if this suddenly started... I'd be looking at deleting the last addition you made to AI flightplans... it is possible that the plan of thje aircraft selected i not working right.

Tons of AI traffic is REALLY demanding on the CPU and FSB even if it is outside close visual range. If yoy have a great graphics card but a so-so CPU and FSB speed....... that can cause problems.

best,

IMO, this is a corrupted AF2 file for the airport in question. Try removing the AF2_airportname.bgl from the Addon Scenery folder and placing it in a safe place; restart FS9 (it will now load the next AF2 in the queque) and see what happens.

These errors are not usually caused by TTools. Also, make separate traffic_new.bgl for each set of AI traffic (one can have as many traffic_xxx.bgl files as wanted); this way, the already installed AI traffic si not affected.

This error may also have corrupted your fs9.cfg file(but I doubt it) and this may have to be deleted as well. FS9 will automatically rebuiild a new fs9.cfg the next time it is loaded.

FS9.cfg is here:
"C:\Documents and Settings\YOU\Application Data\Microsoft\FS9\fs9.CFG"
