If he has not started the FS9 version yet, it will be a while before we see this scenery.

Brilliant post. I'm surprised your not asking for a FS2002 version & Static planes tho :)

AFCAD is a very easy program to use; I prefer to leave hacks like crossing runways to hardcore AI enthusiasts.
RON = Remain over night


Planes essentially line up on taxiway K for overnight storage, like this:

Otherwise AI traffic will be nuts in the morning. :wink:

Won't be having those then. They'll be dumb enough to park there during the day & block the taxiway.

Too vague Jordan. M1DG?
Its not important to me sorry. I can do without 10s of emails asking why planes are parked in the middle of taxiways. Day or Night.
If you wish to adjust your afcad you can do later all you want. Right now be thankful I'm even attempting the FS9 version at all :)

What?! There's going to be a FS2002 version?! Cool! How about us FS98 guys?! Hopefully the graphics will remain the same! :wink:

Boston overflows bigtime dusk/dawn. Never had a single email about that. People are used to AI making mistakes & reaching capacity.
FS AI just wasn't designed to handle the vast volumes of traffic we throw at it.
Parking airliners sideways on taxiways is something I'm not comfortable with.
Your photo shows another reason NOT to do it. Push pack would go onto the grass & into the blast fence.

Then set pushback to none! :wink:


I'll probably just edit it afterward if you won't want to do it and upload it then. Or you could have me just do it.... :P

Sorry I'm agitated today. I quit smoking a few weeks ago.
The AFCAD is just exported as XML, the FSX stuff is gutted out by hand in a text file & then saved for FS9. Some radius changes. Done.
Unless you can do primary work in FSX I can't use your talents.

I only allow regular/basic AFCADs to ship out of the box. You're free to improve and share your mod after the release.

Yeah, easy quick kill is to do a post on the KBUF forum that links people to your AFCAD. Maybe the CEO will even pin it... or maybe you'll just have to bump it periodically.
