B. RENK - MyTRAFFIC X LITE

MyTraffic X is known to be leading AI traffic solution for FSX. What started in 2002 with about 100 repaints of the stock Microsoft AI aircraft and a few licensed models, grew to a giant product with 177 models, 4900 paints, 1600 simulated civil airlines, 2000 modified airports and bunches of tools for all user needs in MyTraffic X 5.2b Professional - with all the options and complexity of such a powerfull tool.

Not all users need this, many users just want it to be simple. Replace the stock airliner traffic on the aiports of their region from the fantasy airlines Microsoft installs to realistic airlines - to watch United and Frontier at Denver, Iberia in Madrid and Lufthansa in Frankfurt. Nothing to worry about, no tools but the traffic density slider that Microsoft supplies, simple install, little framerate hit.

MyTraffic X Lite is the answer to these needs. It contains a selection of 68 airliner or commuter models, 680 paints of 263 airlines. This selction has been chosen to show approximately 90% of all airliners that fly over Europe and North America, and approximately 80% of all commuters in these areas. In addition, some stock GA planes are used to populate the skies.

Since the vast majority of the users fly in these regions, the rest of the world only sees long range traffic from these countries, but no regional traffic - that is the main secret how thousands of paints could be ommitted.

Due to these limitations, it was possible to largely simplify the installation MyTraffic X Lite. Just install it and it will work, and you even can uninstall it without any thoughts once you want to go professional and update to MyTraffic Professional. Users who purchased MyTraffic Lite will get a huge rebate for MyTraffic X professional.

How is this achieved? MyTraffic X Lite installs all its aircraft into the folder "simobjects\misc", and all its scenery files into "addon scenery\scenery". Both areas are active in FSX by default, so nothing has to be done. If you disabled them, you have to enable them again.

If you have an older version of MyTraffic X or Air Nav Systems FSLive X installed, please uninstall that software, or delete the folder MyTrafficaircraft created by these packages - otherwise you will get double entry messages.

If you install MyTraffic X Lite and do not see airliner traffic in Europe or North America, the reason most likely is an incompatible AI schedule written in an old data format somewhere in your installation.
