TAXI2GATE - PARIS CHARLES DE GAULLE LFPG FSX P3DV3

TAXI2GATE - PARIS CHARLES DE GAULLE LFPG FSX P3DV3

Just installed CDG. Looks a very detailed scenery. Can't get the jetways to work, probably a SODE issue. Second issue is being unable to get into the Taxi2gate forum for support, due to time out issues. Maybe lots of users trying to sort out issues? The docs that come with the P3dv4 install are for FSX, so, not much help there. If I ever get onto support and resolve, will supply another review.

LORBY - LORBY-SI - WHERE ARE MY AIRCRAFT FSX P3D

LORBY - LORBY-SI - WHERE ARE MY AIRCRAFT FSX P3D

I have always wanted to be able to display my aircraft out in the open so I can walk between them and choose an aircraft to fly or simply look at the various models, versions and repaints I have. Where-Are-My-Aircraft does this and more. This is a fantastic program. It also allows me to get to any of my static objects(airplanes,animals,boats, ground vehicles, misc, and rotorcraft(in Simobjects) in FSX, FSX-SE or P3D, as well as display any of my purchased addon, stock or Ai aircraft at any airport. To save on VAS, it allows you to replace any aircraft with a 'object' or an AI. There are "Scenes" which allow you collect static objects into GROUPS. For example, you could define an airport with Sunshine and Rain scenes and add different static objects to them. You can then activate the one or the other and WAMA will show only objects of the active one. Really smart. I notice the same author has another great program called AI Tracker X which allows you to better control and look at your AI aircraft. Top effort.

AUSCENE 1 - SYDNEY PROFESSIONAL X V2 FSX FS2004

AUSCENE 1 - SYDNEY PROFESSIONAL X V2 FSX FS2004

If you want a fairly basic YSSY scenery, then this is it. I found for some reason, there are no taxi line parking bay numbers. The lines are there, just not the numbers. I also found one of the ILS beams is not correct. I contacted the author a few months ago, both by email and a support page, but never got an answer.

FSDREAMTEAM - GSX GROUND SERVICES FOR FSX P3D

FSDREAMTEAM - GSX GROUND SERVICES FOR FSX P3D

I purchased GSX a few years ago and was an easy installation with no issues. The suppliers of GSX (FSDT) have a great support network forum, with usually overnight responses to any issue you have. The program is constantly updated and I would recommend this product to any flight sim it works on.

MYTRAFFIC 6 FSX+FSXSE+P3D

MYTRAFFIC 6 FSX+FSXSE+P3D

If you want to populate your FSX,FSXSE and P3D airports,(standard and third party), with Ai aircraft, this program will do it for you. No matter which airport I went to or installed, MT6 would always fill it with the correct airlines and aircraft, depending upon your traffic slider%. Quality of the models was ok. Several schedules, latest being 2015, are provided for various years, including historic aircraft. See below for schedule details. I have a mega Heathrow scenery airport. If you set MT6 traffic slider to 100%, you can park on the end of the active runway and plane spot as landings and take off's never cease. A few issues I have with MT6 are, You may have a few issues with installation if you do not follow the instructions.In fairness, MT6 is using code from the early times of flight sim, making it impossible to provide some functions unless you have certain toolbox programs, which the author can't provide, but are usually easily found. The copious amounts of instructions do not flow, and are very disjointed. There is no MT6 manual, but a compendium of manuals from previous versions for various functions.When you get into some of the database screens, they are different to the instructions, due to later versions. The "instructions" for schedule changes are extremely difficult to follow and are not really designed for public consumption. The schedules are not real life but a mathematical model of timings between various airports on a round robin structure. The schedules reflect the type of aircraft you are likely to see at an airport in each of the years. AI Aircraft fly in a straight line between airports.To change these timings is not easy. If this program ever got a good front end to help with installation, and a tutorial for many of its excellent features, including schedule changes, it would be a winner worth so much more than its present bargain price.
