AI traffic landing on grass
AI traffic landing on grass
I was watching some AI planes land and some landed on the grass. The one that wasnt even close to the runway was a Martinair MD-11. I like how its differnet depending on the .cfg but I at least want it to be on the runway.
Here's a screenshot:

What AI Addon or Addons are you using?
I tested it mostly with WoAI and UT. On the grass like in your screenshot I never got, worst was a back-wheel on the runway edgeline, still on the pavement.

What is very hard to do is try and explain to AI Plane modlers that FS9/FSX AI planes MUST fly certain DEFAULT curved approaches. If you set weather to less then 3 mile visibility at PHNL all AI Planes that are landing on RWY 26L fly a default curved approach (the LDA). The FS9/FSX default B747 has no problem flying these FS9/FSX coded approaches but many 3rd party AI Planes cannot do it.
I have ask many AI plane developers to test there models for curved approaches but it continues to fall on deaf ears. AI modlers only know how to adjust .air and .cfg files for a staright in ILS approach with speed, flair and touchdown.
Some models fly curved approaches better then others. This has to do with sink rates in a bank with gear /flaps down and the amount of turn (desired bank angle vs actual bank angle) the AI plane can achieve. Many 3rd party heavy AI planes cannot even fly a straight in VORDME approach like at FT's TNCM RWY 09 because a ILS does not exist. When a actual ILS does not exist in the approach code, AI planes fall back on a hard coded .dll file to simulate a actual ILS approach code.
When you find a certain model AI Plane that will not behave correctly it is best to change the .air and .cfg to a more stable set of .air and. cfg files from some other AI Plane that does work.
Some AI planes are so bad that without a coded ILS they go missed approach because when they find the invisible runway texture code the .air and .cfg fights the actual coded descent code based on their desired descent code.

You must use a .air and .cfg from a AI Plane that is equal in type, size and weight. You copy the .air and the .cfg but in the .cfg you must keep the original contact points and light positions.
You could also use Jan Martins files for the type AI Plane that does not behave very well. I don't know if his web site list your actual AI modeled plane but he does have many AI planes that are popular already set up with a good set of engineered FDE's.
The L-1011, DC10, MD11 are some of the hardest to find a good working set of FDE's for the AI plane.
We also need to remember that most AI Planes are actually FS9 models and not FSX models. Besides texture issues the flight dynamics changed in the .air and .cfg for FSX. This is causing some additional problems when using a FS9 coded plane in the FSX curved approach environment. I have to write 2 seperate approach codes for 1 airport. One for FS9 using FS9 AI Planes and one for FSX using FS9 AI Planes.
Sometimes it is best to try and use someone else's MD11 if you can find the correct texture for your airline.
I test with mostly WOAI which is for the most part a Arrdvark model plane. Arrdvark goes for the short roll out after landing. I also use PAI, Evolve, FSP and several others that are more popular. They are not as perfect as what FS9/FSX default can do with their FDE's but at least can bank a little better then others available.

Where can I download Jan Martins ai planes to download? In the aircraft.cfg I copy everything over except the contact points and light positions?
Thanks
EDIT: I justed looked up Jan Martin in Google and project ai came up. So now I only download the plane models that don't land correctly. I just searched the site file library for his name and nothing came up.

Here is Jan's web site
http://de.geocities.com/janswebsites/fl ... index.html
Down at the bottom go to FDE /other and see if your AI Plane is listed. If so just copy the .air and .cfg to your AI Plane and then just put back all your Fltsim sections.
If not listed find a MD11 on his site. Use the .air and .cfg he has for another MD11 but keep your Contact points and Light position so your model has those correct. You need your contact points and lights so everything in that area stays the same.
Be sure in each of your fltsim sections you point to his .air file name and not your old one.

True, I forgot about those.I just have a few questions. In the mytraffic md11 .cfg I also shouldn't modify the effects and exits as well.
the other way around. Place Jan's .air in that folder (aircraft folder) and in your original .cfg at the top is the fltsim sectionThe .air for the md11 names is: paimd11v5acof.air I should change it to the .air file name in the md11 folder. Correct?
Change
fltsim.0
title=McDonnell-Douglas/Boeing MD-11 AI_DAL
sim=xxxxxxxxxxx <<<<<<-------------------------- change this line to read
sim=paimd11v5acof
that way the fltsim section will point to the correct .air file that matches the new .cfg file
do the same thing if you have more then 1 fltsim section based on airline textures.
I changed the sim to the correct .air file. The first thing under general in the MTX .cfg is :
[pilot_static]
vertical_speed_time_constant = 1 //Increasing this value will cause a more instantaneous reaction in the VSI
pitot_heat=1.000000
In the other .cfg the pilot static is at the bottom and looks like this:
[pitot_static]
vertical_speed_time_constant=1 //Increasing this value will cause a more instantaneous reaction in the VSI
Do I just copy and paste over pilot static or do I leave pilot heat? Basically do I use the mtx .cfg order with just the pai numbers etc. or do I copy and paste, replace under each section?
Thanks
